I realize that abusing concierges in such a manner has ethical implications, but I've always felt in the right because: 1) we've spent a boatload of money at the Portman over the past 12 years; and 2) we tip them pretty well. Their number is 6279 8888.
If you don't feel comfortable bothering them, try the concierges at the hotels where you are actually staying.
Cool. Thanks, to one and all who have contributed to this thread.
