JW for me. They’re a 5 min walk from each other so location is practically the same

P.S. Interested in luxury hotels, location doesn’t matter

The Wellesley is the sh it! If you smoke cigars, you will die if it’s awesomeness! Love that hotel, expensive but worth it if you are a cigar person

The JW is really nice and right in the middle of Mayfair so it’s close to everything. The other standard Marriotts around there aren’t terrible but nothing really luxurious.

The Wellesley wants an exorbitant amount of points... Choosing between JW and Marriott Park Lane? Which one do you recommend?

Sheraton Park Lane is actually very nice and I have always been upgraded to an awesome suite (only staid there 3 times). Great location too.

The JW is nicer but the Marriott Park Lane is still quite a nice property. The Marriott is also right by Oxford St for shopping and dining if that is what you are looking for. Both have good park views from some rooms.

Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?
