Talk:London/Mayfair-Marylebone

Banner

existing banner

new from WLM-2019

Our current banner looks like another London street. Something with Sherlock Holmes may be more recognizable and eye-catching. What do you think? --Alexander (talk) 15:50, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

• Support - I'd also change the current Oxford Street one for something more inviting and representative of the district.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 21:53, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Sherlock Holmes is coming ;) --Alexander (talk) 20:47, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Spectacularly negative Guardian review

The Polo Lounge at the Dorchester Hotel: ‘Dismal food at inexplicable prices’ Pashley (talk) 04:03, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure what we do because we can't link newspaper and magazine articles per what not to link to, and anyway, our guidelines are to avoid negative reviews. The listing for the hotel doesn't mention the Polo Lounge. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:15, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

'Amercian' candy stores...

Obviously Wikiovyage readers and travellers aren't stupid, but does this warrant a cautionary note? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 17:39, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

I'd say so. They're specifically marketed at tourists, and they only exist in such numbers because Londoners don't do their shopping on Oxford Street anymore.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 17:56, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Treatment for symptomatic hypochondria (if you can pay the fees)?

Relevant content about NHS provision is already in the main London article.

However, there is no mention of Harley Street in this District article, Is it covered elsewhere? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 08:46, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
