UK Hotels - South East

I am looking for an independently run, filming friendly, hotel for a factual pilot. Preferably it's mid-sized (50ish rooms), international in feel (or at least not overtly English seaside, etc) but most importantly it is run by an owner/manager who would consider allowing a TV crew to film with them and some of their staff over the course of a day.

It's a fun shoot with a okay location fee, but not for broadcast, so would't suit a promotion hungry hotel.

If you have stayed anywhere where you thought they would be fun and open to filming, or know of a friendly manager/ess, I'd love any leads.

Thanks in advance,
Chris

Unfortunately most of our smaller hotels tend to be of the ‘seaside resort’ type so wouldn’t fit the brief. The only one I can think that might is the Queen’s Hotel:

It is on the seafront, but has a grand, international feel and the building itself is certainly full of character.

Kind regards
