A survey carried out by extramarital affair site Ashley Madison, which was participated by 1300 of its members, revealed that the chic Four Seasons Hotel on London’s Park Lane is the most popular spot in town for having a fling. Ashley Madison is an online dating service catered for cheaters.
Other hotels that made it to the list are noticeably some of the most luxurious like The Savoy and The Goring Hotel. The Four Seasons got 12per cent of the votes.
"Our research shows Brits love anonymity with a classy setting" said Christoph Kraemer. "Hotels offer discretion, privacy and logistical benefits, such as staggered check-in times and can be booked under false names."
"Infidelity is a multi-million pound industry in the UK" he said. "Although the budget hotels such as Easy Hotels, Premier Inn, Travelodge and Holiday Inn do not fair so well, without extra marital affairs many hotels would suffer economically."
