YOUR article about London’s Hotel 41 (Echo Travel, Oct 31) made mention of it looking over the “Queen’s backyard” and included a photograph intimating that it showed the back of Buckingham Palace.
Many years ago, when I was at school in London, I learnt that the part of the palace where the balcony is, is the back. The photograph shows where all the garden parties are held and, of course, is the front.
I do not think that the view from the Hotel 41 therefore overlooks the Queen’s backyard.
