Posting to UK from USA

Hello, am after any advice or experience from any of you knowledgeable lot. 
Basically I have an item of lost property left at a hotel in New York recently, and the hotel said if I arrange postage they will send it home to me here in the UK. It’s not heavy and will fit in a large envelope.
There seem to be lots of delivery companies and I just wondered if any of you have any advice. I guess what I will have to do is pick a service, pay them and email the address label to the hotel. 
Thanks

    Normally hotels will have their own procedure / preferred delivery partners and are happy to arrange this at an (inflated) fee. Unless you perhaps want to purchase a USPS online international postage label and email onto the hotel possibly?
