The food blew me away as well STAR QUALITY The new London hotel that feels like an A-listers apartment with retro rooms and fantastic restaurant Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE July London Victoria is one of the newest hotels to open in the city; their first UK hotel after success in Amsterdam with more plans for Dublin and Lisbon too. Here is everything you need to know. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 July London Victoria is one of London's newest hotels Credit: 4 I was in love with the interiors which toed the line of both modern and retro Where is the The July London Victoria? Just steps from London Victoria station, you are right in the middle of it all. The July London Victoria is a mastery in transporting you back in time without feeling dated, with laidback funk and jazz playing while checking into the mid century hotel. I was obsessed with the interiors as soon as I stepped in - rich mid century wood, painted ceilings and plush red chairs, all while funk and jazz played overhead. What are the rooms like? Despite calling themselves aparthotel, it felt more likely being in a trendy A listers flat. Each room comes with their own kitchenette, complete with Nespresso machines, tea making and all the glassware above the cooker. Decorated in baby pinks and rich green, I had great fun calling reception on the retro yellow dialling phone. Along with my very plush double bed, the pink tiled bathroom comes with a walk in shower and Marie-Stella-Maris toiletries, a Dutch brand the hotel has teamed up with. Despite being by a busy train station, my room was gloriously quiet thanks to overlooking a quiet street behind - meaning a fantastic nights sleep. What can you eat and drink there? The hotels The Idler is where you can dine all day. Lined with rich red leather seats, green ceiling ans pink trikes bar, I felt like I'd gone back to the80s (in a modern way) thanks to the abstract painted ceiling and mix of artwork on the walls Dinner is a small choice but good size portions affair; My Coppa cured meat and pickles starter was just as good as the whipped butter and sourdough. As tempted as I was by the steak and fish, the fresh tomato linguine with sides of seaweed salty Cavelero Nero and broccoli were a divine choice, as well as offering extremely large portion sizes. And I could hardly resist the chocolate mousse… Breakfast is a choice of continental or hot options such as potato hash and poached eggs. Take the kids too as they dine for free with an adult. Need a late night snack? There is even an on-site deli serving drinks and food to take back to your room. What else is there to do at the hotel? The hotel has an onsite 24hr gym - stylishly decorated in red patterns, albeit slightly sparse on the machines - as well as a cold plunge and sauna. The 24 hour reception is on hand for any questions or help - they happily were on hand when I forgot my phone charger by accident. Otherwise if you want to explore, catch a show at The West End, or hop on a train to explore the rest of the city. Is The July London Victoria family friendly? The hotel has a Family Apartment room which sleeps four, and you can request a free baby bed. Are there accessible rooms? There is the Accessible Apartment room which has an accessible bathroom, and there are two lifts in the hotel. 4 The rooms all have enough space for desks and kitchenettes

Welcome to your hot-air balloon summer
There's only one truly glamorous way to dine this summer: in a hot-air balloon. Take a scroll through your Instagram feed and you're almost guaranteed to come across at least one photo of a spectacular-looking dining pop-up featuring a fleet of grounded hot-air balloons. The chicest one is at Beaverbrook hotel in Surrey, which has been running for five years, while more whimsical fun can be had at the Grove in Hertfordshire, where their Feast on Cloud 9 pop-up has a retro fairground theme. But if you really want to take things to the next level, you need to get yourself to the Netherlands. There, the acclaimed Dutch chef Angélique Schmeinck takes to the skies with what is claimed to be the world's first hot-air balloon restaurant, CuliAir Skydining, which serves a three-course meal over an hour and a half while guests drift above the clouds. The flights take place across the Netherlands, with the exact locations decided based on the weather (the middle and eastern areas in Holland tend to have the best flight conditions during the ballooning season, which runs from May until the end of September). Schmeinck — who spent 12 years cooking at the Michelin-starred De Kromme Dissel in Heelsum — launched CuliAir in 2003 as part of a course she was taking on creative thinking. 'For my final project, I had to come up with something that looked impossible,' she says. 'For some reason a hot-air balloon came to mind and I realised that it's basically just a huge hot-air oven. I wondered, 'What would happen if you put a nice fish or a good chicken in there?' I knew I had to try it out for myself.' She called a local ballooning company and explained her idea. 'Most people thought I was crazy, but I was lucky that this particular pilot loved good food, so he was intrigued by the idea. I'd never been in a balloon before but it was the most wonderful experience of my life. I knew it was too special not to just go for it.' CuliAir started with one balloon that seated ten and was mainly used for corporate entertaining, but post-Covid Schmeinck saw such a spike in bookings that she invested in another balloon, which seats eight. Both balloons were custom-made to suit her unique requirements, which include a curved kitchen from which Schmeinck prepares all her dishes and a 'Sky Bar' around the edge of the basket where guests can balance their plates and glasses of wine as they take in the view. An ingenious pulley system is used to transport white asparagus, lobster and wild sea bass to the crown of the balloon, where they're cooked at about 90C, 'low and slow', in special-purpose steel oven baskets. Tickets cost €575 per person and regularly sell out. • Read more luxury reviews, advice and insights from our experts To date, Schmeinck has carried out almost 1,000 flights, with about 80 taking off each season, and she says no two are ever the same. 'It's so difficult to explain what happens in the balloon — it's a very surreal experience. There's a special energy that happens at high altitude. My favourite flights are when we go above the clouds; it feels like being inside a painting.' Back on terra firma, the Beaverbrook balloon experience in Surrey was created in collaboration with the British homewares brand Summerill & Bishop. 'Fanning the Flame' runs until the end of September and features six balloons decked out in Summerill & Bishop's swirling Marble Fan design in a soft powder pink. The balloons are tethered to the ground and stationary, with guests dining in the wicker baskets, feasting on dishes cooked on an open-flame Japanese Yakiniku barbecue, with a cloud-inspired pudding featuring wild strawberry ice cream, pistachio and fluffy cotton candy. Up to four guests can dine at once and the set menu starts at £85 per person. The other hot-air balloon pop-up this summer is Feast on Cloud 9 at the Grove in Hertfordshire, which runs until August 31. Created by Feast Events — which has also put custom-made ski gondolas on the roof of the Berkeley for its winter Feast Off-Piste event — the pop-up features 14 hot-air balloons in a classic red and white stripe, perched on either side of the hotel's ornamental canal. The theme here is a nostalgic journey to the fairground, with dishes including hook-a-duck pâté, fillet of beef wellington served in a giant burger box and a fortune teller doughnut in a crystal ball complete with an edible tarot card. Up to six people can dine in a balloon, with afternoon tea from £65 per person and the five-course tasting menu £75 per person. Whether we can expect Beaverbrook or the Grove to take to the skies next year remains to be seen, but so far only a handful of other companies have followed in Schmeinck's footsteps — including Air Pegasus in Normandy and Hot Air Lines in Vilnius — and none to the same level. 'It's very hard to copy as it's so complicated — you need a licence, there's a lot of safety elements and then there's the uncertainty with the weather conditions,' she says. However, Schmeinck is in talks to bring the CuliAir experience to other countries, with the UK right near the top of her list. 'There's been a lot of interest from the UK, so I'd love to make that happen. I think dining with CuliAir is the most wonderful experience you can give to somebody, so I want to share that with as many people as possible.'
