At the Secret Lagoon. LUCAS PETERS, HIDDEN ICELAND

By Everett Potter

    Earlier this fall, I read Everett’s Potter review of the Connaught Hotel Bar in London. My daughter and I spent 9 days in London for the Christmas season. It was my first trip to that beautiful city.

    On the last night there, we found the Connaught. It was truly as lovely as Everett Potter described it. The drinks were fabulous and the atmosphere was reserved but festive. The service was impeccable. I am so glad Everett Potter reviewed this gorgeous hotel bar. My millenial and I felt quite pampered, just having a sit, a drink, and a lovely conversation. Thank you Everett, for sharing your experiences with all of us .
