For Rent: Rooms @ St. James’ Palace!
According to this article we’ve found…
“A Royal Palace is to be let out during next year’s London Olympic Games in a break with nearly 500 years of royal protocol. The Queen has personally approved the plans to allow businesses to take their pick of the Palace’s Throne Room, its Tapestry Room and the Queen Anne Room. Guests, who will enjoy an exclusive tour of the Palace, will also be close to several key Olympic events including the Beach Volleyball, which will be held in Horse Guards Parade, and the marathon, which will start and finish in the Mall. Nearby Hyde Park will be the venue for some swimming events.”
This is actually a good idea. Knowing that London is facing major economic problems, extra $$$ would really help. Plus, the proceeds will be used to fund the Sovereign Grant and “will be spent on the upkeep of Royal residences” according to a spokesperson.
Don’t forget to post it on Craigslist Your Highness! Hahaha!
