UK LEISURE HOTELS
This year's winner, The Grove in Hertfordshire, scored consistently well, but it did better than the rest for leisure facilities and value for money (96.36; 87.27). Perhaps unsurprisingly, Raymond Blanc's Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons scored highest for food/restaurants (97.50), while you reckon the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park provides the best service/staff (93.33) and Hotel Tresanton the highest standard/comfort of accommodation (94.29). And the best-looking hotel? Well, you gave both Babington House in Somerset and Barnsley House in Gloucestershire more than 90 for their sensational contemporary-country ambience/decor.

UK BUSINESS HOTELS
London's Jumeirah Carlton Tower cannot be beaten for its Knightsbridge location (95.56) or its business services/systems available (88.89), just two reasons why you think it's the best hotel to do business in the UK. But for service, head for the Four Seasons Hotel London (87.50) and for ambience/decor to Claridge's (92). The InterContinental Park Lane scored highest for food/restaurants (a lip-smacking 97.98), while Malmaison Edinburgh and Malmaison Manchester both scored above 80 for value for money.
