Are you finding yourself constantly out of funds?
Are you starting to feel that maybe just maybe, that rather misunderstood character Patrick Bateman was onto something?
Fear not wonderful readers! for we have the most perfect solution.
The Sir Alfred Hitchcock Hotel located in Snaresbrook; east-east East London like Zone 4 London. I wasn't sure if life existed outside of Zone 2 pretty sure I was going to fall off the face of the earth, kind of relieved when we didn't.
It's an ideal destination for those wary of country people, look we've all seen The Hills have Eyes original and remake, so lets just be sensible about this Holiday malarkey. There are plenty of people milling around, that's a must.
This mansion was originally owned by Sir Hitchcock who was born down the road in Leytonstone, the house was sold when he became an American citizen.
It was then bought up and turned into a hotel.
Now surely I'm not the only one that thinks this is genius?
I was working on a film & as A big fan of his movies, Psycho in particular I thought it was rather poetic to ask the manager if we could use his hotel to base actors and to feed the crew. And he said yes!
The decor is pretty ace..
The food, erm not so good... definitely not Michelin star material.
Throw in the over emphatic hotel owner. Good times on a tight budget fo' sure!
