Make Memories in London
in London
… with the UK capital requires a little more than an online search for “things to do in London” and a quick flick through a “top ten London attractions” pamphlet. True discovery involves spending time in each neighborhood, talking to locals in the know, and going off-radar to discover your own “top ten”. While many of the boutique hotels London has to offer are simply concerned with a good night’s sleep—or “kip”, as the locals say—our member hotels are committed to helping you discover deeper; whether they put you in the heart of the London restaurant scene or steps from the best shopping in London. Did we say “London” too much? Sorry, we just love London!
