In terms of other dining venues:

Meridian Lounge in the lobby - open serving coffees/teas/cakes (which looked delicious)/light breakfast

Clipper Bar on the first floor (second for those who consider the ground floor to be the first) - open for drinks and light snacks (some glasses of wine looked a bit too expensive for my tastes - a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc was GBP18 a glass but there were others half that price). Great view over Canary Wharf and the hotel entrance

Market Brasserie - next to the Clipper Bar serving an excellent breakfast buffet and other meals

Eighteen - now open on the 18th floor (didn't get a chance to look at it)


Which leaves the following not open (I was told many of these would happen in January):

Peninsula Restaurant
Walkway through to the O2 (currently, if walking from North Greenwich Underground, cut through the bus station and round the side of the main O2 building to get to the hotel car park)
Club Lounge
Spa/Pool
Quite a bit of landscaping

As I mentioned in the Ambassador thread, I was treated very well by the staff at the hotel and would recommend.

One final point - the TV had mainly Freeview channels but with the usual foreign language channels, e.g. TV5 Monde, ARD 1, etc. In addition, there was BT Sport 1 and 2 (but no Sky Sports)

Raffles - I can't believe there's only 8 rooms - there were a lot more names than that on the breakfast list
