)Smart rooms and good on-site restaurant (Simply Nico, not the one in the lobby). As always you're faced with the dilemma of transport, but if money is no object then i'm sure that can be resolved.
If you're going further afield, then there's Cliveden near Slough. Have never stayed there personally, but I understand it's gone somewhat downhill recently.

Just for anyone wanting to score the CP & not take a gamble on priceline, it's probably always worth checking out www.holiday-inn.co.uk as from time to time this has UK sale information on it. Of late the CP has been available for 60 incl tax and breakfast for two as part of the Winter sale.

I do recommend The Fox and Pheasant Pub for dinner...a short walk from the hotel.
