The reception area leads on to the restaurant area and to a small bar space – The Consulting Room which serves cocktails and afternoon tea. I arrived on a wet and windy Sunday morning and was immediately whisked up to my room. With the newspapers thoroughly read I made my way down to the restaurant for dinner.

Having grown up in a pub owning family I must admit to being sceptical about my stay in one of the five rooms atop the Orange Pub. For me staying over at the pub meant waking up after a very noisy evening to find large empty whiskey bottles at the bottom of the stairs and various family members in drunken slumber.

Once settled we went downstairs for a light lunch in one of the hotel’s restaurants, Cipriani’s. The staff were attentive and polite, your drink was always being topped up. As a breakfast goes it was adequate to set us up for our day of sightseeing. Advertised minimum rate per night is €207 (February 2015).

I grew up in a different age where working hard and being humble were par for the course for the PA. On the day I reverted to ‘show and tell’ and picked up the annual catalogue of restaurants for both of my bosses which greatly impressed them. Generation Y makes about 50% of the current workforce.

Over the last few years there are plenty more online communities and in more recent times we have taken networking to a whole new level with local networks, organised by assistants, springing up all over the place. Meeting other assistants who work near by, who share the same suppliers, hotels, restaurants etc. It is brilliant!
