Q How does the Daily Planet operate?
Answer Guests enter the secure reception area at the front of the building, where the receptionist, 'Lois Lane', greets them. Lois arranges for a hostess to take first-time guests on a tour of the Lounge and other facilities (including Sports Bar and Planet Bar). Once they realise that they definitely want to stay a while, they book a room from Reception – as they would at any other 6-star hotel. The guest is then free to partake of the free facilities within the Daily Planet, including pool, drinks, dancing and lively conversation with numerous ladies in a relaxed social environment.
Once the guest has met a lady that they like, they simply hand them a card and they then adjourn to the room the guest has booked. All transactions between guests and the ladies working at the Daily Planet are completely private.

Q How many rooms are available? What are they like? Do they have any special features or facilities?
Answer In all, 18 private rooms or suites are available at the Daily Planet.

All rooms are named and themed – the Grecian and Roman Rooms are definitely worth visiting.
