My Biggest Three Recommendations…

If you book or buy through any of the links on this page, we may earn a small fee at no extra cost to you.


The Best Places to Stay


Stay at the Artist Residence  for boutique indie charm in the quiet neighbourhood of Pimlico.

Opt for luxury and full on retro glamour with a stay at The Ritz on Green Park.

Choose The Hoxton Shoreditch for Cool Britannia East End style.


If you only book one thing in advance, make it this…


Book your skip-the-line ticket to Westminster Abbey to avoid wasting time in queues.

Consider a London food tour for something really special.


The Packing Essentials


You will walk a lot in London! Make sure you have comfortable shoes and I’d also suggest a reusable water bottle.

You will also need a robust suitcase to handle the cobbles of London’s streets. Here’s my pick of the best carry-on luggage your Great British Pounds can buy.


Inside tip:

For one of the best free views of London, head to the top of Primrose Hill.
