Beautiful hotel, really stylish and comfortable with impeccable vibes from the staff - they couldn't have been more helpful. The room was beautifully furnished with great views across the garden, and really tranquil despite it's closeness to Earls Court Rd. And fantastic cocktails in the bar - the honey drop was something else.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,892 reviews)
I gave this hotel a 3 star because of the location of the hotel. Walking distance to the Parliament, London eye, near bus stops and 5-10 min walk to the Underground but it was far enough that the hotel was quiet so you can get a restful sleep. When we checked in, the first person that we encountered was great - the bell boy. The person who checked us in didn’t even smile. She looked mad for some reason. What we didn’t like was our room was not thoroughly cleaned daily - it was not dusted daily. The curtains were damaged- couldn’t close them properly. The handle to move the curtain side to side was off and was never fixed while we stayed there- we stayed a total of 8 days. Found hair on our bed a few times - not on our first night though. The night before we checked out , we came back to our room after dinner and room attendant didn’t leave any toilet paper. Cups brought from breakfast from previous days were left by the sink so she can take them but unfortunately she didn’t removed from the room. Stayed until we checked out. Breakfast was the same every day. Pretty boring. On our last day, we saw some people were given a piece of paper. We weren’t given it, we were passed over twice. Everyone else around us was given the paper. On the way out I asked the person what was being given out, she explained and I told her, it was perfect since we stayed 8 days and we wanted to give an opinion. Not sure if we will stay here again. This is why only a 3 star.

Find the Best London Vacation Packages

Where to stay on the ultimate London vacation

The UK's biggest city is a vast place, with so many charming and individual little neighborhoods that it can be tricky to pick just one area to base yourself in for your trip to London. Good news: This city is so dripping in history, energy, and local-meets-global flair that you're sure to find something interesting just around the corner wherever you choose.

Soho and Covent Garden are central destinations that remain popular with tourists. If you'd like to see a little more of London's cutting edge, it's all about the East: Base yourself in hip Shoreditch or Hackney for live music, street food, and independent shopping, or drift further south to Peckham, the real nexus of London's next big things.

If you like your culture trip infused with a little English country charm, consider Richmond for your London vacation. This town-within-a-town on the Thames has a quaint yet sophisticated feel. Close to the world-famous Kew Gardens and home to a royal park with some resident deer, it's just a short train ride to more central destinations.

The type of accommodation you choose in London all depends on how you want to travel. Renting a private home is a great way to experience the city like a local and move at your own pace in a place that feels like your private oasis. Boutique hotels serve up a little of the city's edgy style, while major chains offer those familiar comforts that feel so welcome after a long day exploring the metropolis. If you're looking to live it up on the trip of a lifetime fit for royalty, consider London luxury vacations for a slice of the high life in a city of sophistication. Or if you'd simply like to relax and have somebody else take care of dinner, consider all-inclusive hotel options for your trip to London.

Ways to spend a day in London

A wise man once said: If you're tired of London, you're tired of life—and it's true that there are as many places to explore as there are days in the year. A few stand out. One perennial popular spot is Columbia Road Flower Market. Situated on a charming street in East London, this celebration of all things horticultural bursts into life and draws visitors from around the world to sample its unique vibe. From there, it's a short walk to buzzing Brick Lane, a street with a storied past where you can pick up a bagel and browse vintage fashion and vinyl records as you watch London's bright young things pass by.

Another charming place to spend the afternoon is the city's South Bank. Stroll along the Thames and discover art and culture in some of the city's must famous institutions, from the iconic National Theatre and British Film Institute to the magnificent Royal Festival Hall. Browse books at the second-hand stall by the river and stop at any one of the restaurants to dine as you watch day turn to night over the Thames.

You might want to end your day soaking up the city's culture on the other side of the river with a show in the world-famous West End. This is where some of the finest actors in the world tread the boards in showstopping performances that draw crowds from around the globe. Get your hands on a pair of tickets and enjoy a night you'll never forget.
