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.
