The 30 Best Landmarks in London

“This is the third time I've been to the Harry Potter tour as its just so good, ove taken my daughter, friends and famiky back there. I dont think the tickets arw that expensive for whatbyou get and yes the shop os ridiculously over priced but yoi dont nees to buy anything and quite frankly if You do you will be spending half an hour of your day in the line waiting to pay so I'd rather buy something anywhere else or these days everywhere else. Its su h an imoresosve place and to be hoenst i notice different things everytime i have been”

“We took the London Waterbus from Camden, and it felt like more than just a ride—thanks to Will on board, who made it feel like a proper excursion with his friendly guidance and little stories. A calm, scenic way to enjoy Regent’s Canal!”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the Gourmet Bus Dinner Experience! Delicious 6-course meal and wine all served in style whilst taking in the beautiful sights of London. Highly recommend this tour - it’s well worth the money!”

“We had an excellent weekend stay at the Canopy. On arrival we received a very friendly, welcoming and efficient check-in service from Connor. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Due to a train delay, we arrived much later than planned, so ate at the hotel the first night. The food was delicious and, again, the service friendly and efficient. Breakfast was very good. Not a huge selection, but still enough to choose from, and good quality. Our only issue was that the pillows in our room were too plump for our liking, but the staff promptly changed them for us. Throughout our stay, the staff were excellent. We would certainly stay here again.”

“I had the most lovely afternoon tea here to catch up with a good friend. The location (next to Marble Arch) was just lovely. Martha was a fantastic server. I felt so welcomed. The food was delicious. I loved the sunflower dessert the most!”

“Been here a few times now and has always been good. Friendly staff and food is very nice. Also you get the bonus of a car or motorbike meet to look at aswell. Would highly recommend this place.”

“The reception staff at the hotel, Clarence and Chloe were exceptional. From the moment I arrived, they greeted me with genuine warmth and professionalism. They were always ready to assist with anything I needed, offering helpful information and going out of their way to ensure my stay was comfortable. Their friendly attitude, efficiency, and attention to detail truly made a difference. Excellent service!! They are a real asset to the hotel!”

“Exceptional Stay in the Heart of London★★★★★ I recently had the pleasure of staying at The pillar Hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The location is perfect—right in the heart of London, making it easy to explore the city’s top attractions. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always ready to assist with a smile. The room was immaculate, beautifully designed, and equipped with all the modern amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was exceptionally cozy, ensuring a great night’s sleep after a long day of sightseeing. Breakfast was a highlight, with a fantastic selection of fresh, high-quality options. The hotel’s attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction truly set it apart. I highly recommend The pillar hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and stress-free stay in London. I can’t wait to return!”

“5 minute walk from Victoria Station. It is in a quiet residential area with a lovely hot breakfast daily. The room price is high for a very small room BUT the breakfast is high quality and adds so much value. Bathrooms are sparkling clean. There is staff available to get ice or linen. The restaurant is only open for the breakfast but does offer alcoholic drinks at night. Beds were very comfortable but there is literally very little space to walk or stand in the room. The proprietor is independent and should be supported for not joining a hotel chain. I recommend The Windermere”

“Booked in for 2 nights at St James' Court and it was a fantastic experience. Service was top notch and very friendly. We used the George V conference room which was fantastic room and plentiful of space for a group of 10. The break out area within the meeting room was very helpful for lunch and comfort breaks too. Used the spa for an hour on the 2nd day and it was a relaxing experience - wish I could have stayed for longer. Breakfast and dinner were fantastic and so many options for both. Really enjoyed the whole experience and the team at A Taj made a real effort in making sure you had a great time.”

“A very clean and accommodating hotel. Prime location. Absolutely centrally located to many of the city's attractions. Within walking distance or in some cases a 30 minute taxi ride or less to very popular areas of the city. The bar at Primo is well maintained, modern and impeccably clean. The bartender there the night we were there was a true professional. His name was Denis, and so far on our trip, he has been our favorite bartender with no close second. Drinks were spot on. He has a great personality and a great sense of humor. Bravo Park Plaza, you have gem on your hands in Denis.”

“Have stayed here twice and have been blown away both times. Rooms are beautiful, great attention to detail with the treats in the room, everything is clean and the facilities available are fantastic. The Spa in particular was a wonderful experience, the staff are so warming and knowledgeable, and the massage was 10/10. The breakfast has a fantastic selection, proper quality ingredients and you can order cooked dishes off a menu if you wish. Will definitely be back. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, the staff are so friendly and will look after you. Was also very useful when I had a concert at the O2 as you could just go down this long corridor that connects to the O2, so no needs to go outside!”

“The hotel staff were really friendly and welcoming. They upgraded my room to a city view - the view was picturesque! The rooms are very clean and have good natural lighting. The spa was a nice addition too. I would like to give a special mention to Nely and Tia, they went above and beyond and made my stay enjoyable.”

“Really good option if you’re looking for an apartment style short term accommodation in Canary Wharf. Right on the edge of the main area, just across the road from the Thames, the rooms are well maintained and the staff are extremely useful and friendly. The small studios are very small, but are fine for single person or short stays. The larger studio worked well for my husband and I, with plenty of space to work, cook, and keep your things. A much better apartment style option than some others in the area, with better amenities and support. Highly recommend.”

“I needed a room urgently late at night, and the staff were incredibly helpful and quick to assist. I got a room right away and even received an upgrade, which made the stay extra comfortable. Everything was spotless, and the team was so kind and welcoming — especially Vincent, who was exceptionally friendly and helpful. I truly felt safe and well taken care of here.”

“I can’t recommend this hotel enough! I’m quite particular about cleanliness, and this place truly impressed me; everything was spotless, with attention to every detail. The bed was very comfortable, the room well-equipped, and the staff were incredibly warm and friendly! The location is perfect too, just a few meters from the subway, with a laundromat, grocery stores, and plenty of great restaurants nearby. A nice bonus was the stunning open view from my room! Considering the quality and the location, the price is an absolute steal!”

“What a marvelous hostel! I had the best time here. It has a great atmosphere with a really friendly group of travelers, and the price is right! Just FYI, this is DEFINITELY a party hostel, and they go very hard here! If you are looking for a chill, relaxing vibe, you are going to want to keep looking. But if you’re looking for some great parties with even better people, Urbany is it!”

“We took the half day Stonehenge tour and we were happy we chose Day Tours. Tour bus departs on time and the driver Rob was good. Arrived at Stonehenge as one of the earliest tour busses, so we can take many photos without too many crowds.”

“fantastic tour guide - can’t remember their name but they were incredible (factual and funny,, a great combo) - took 2 hours to go all the way round but it felt like no time - would do again!!”

“Lovely hotel with spacious rooms and a comfortable atmosphere. The staff are friendly and professional, making the stay smooth and enjoyable.”

“We stayed here for six nights and had a very pleasant stay. The room was sizable, shower great, bed comfy, the towels fluffy, and the staff all very polite and attentive. This hotel is at a beautiful river side location. We would definitely stay here again.”

“Excellent! Great communication, patient with all my questions and delays! Offered me £800 more than a different company! Thankyou!!!”

“Authentic British experience. Tasty, simple, fast, everything one might need plus friendly and competent staff. Recommend!!”

“I had a genuinely excellent stay at ibis Styles London Ealing, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, the hotel felt welcoming, modern, and well cared for. After a long journey, Mac made the check-in process smooth, friendly, and completely stress-free, which instantly put me at ease and set a great tone for the stay. The room itself was spotless with a unique cinema theme that made it stand out from a typical hotel room. I especially appreciated the small personal touches, a welcome card waiting in the room and a little chocolate, which was such a nice surprise and made me feel genuinely welcomed. Another thoughtful detail that really impressed me was the complimentary pastries available one of the evenings I was there, along with free orange juice for guests. It’s a small gesture, but it adds a warm, generous feel to the hotel and shows real attention to guest experience. The room was comfortable, quiet, and relaxing, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was friendly and calm. Everything felt well organized and cared for, and it’s clear the team takes pride in what they do. I would happily stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with excellent service and thoughtful touches throughout.”

“What a lovely hotel in such a great location, everywhere was easy to walk to, lots of things to see and do in the area and easily accessible. Check in was extremely friendly and all the staff were very attentive. We had a few drinks in the bay where the staff were also very attentive and helpful. Rooms were a nice size with everything we needed…. Except a kettle and tea making equipment or so we thought… partner found it in a drawer just before we left! We had even gone for an early morning walk just to get a cuppa and presumed the hotel had gone down the American route if just providing coffee…. Just a suggestion but it would have been helpful to have been told about the location of tea making equipment or a sign somewhere in the room. Likewise I didn’t find the mirror until we left either! Other than this it was great, a lovely comfy bed with very nice bedlinen. Nice toiletries in the bathroom and it was nice to have a separate bath and shower. Would definitely stay again”

“Very satisfied with our stay at the Hub. The hotel was happy to store our bags prior to check in. The room was spotlessly clean & the beds were comfy (though we did request extra pillows). The nighttimes were peaceful & there was a black out blinds on the window. All the staff, including the duty manager & chefs were very friendly & happy to accommodate my partners dietary requirements and the bar/breakfast are was comfortable. The location was very convenient, as was the 12 noon check out time. I would note even the larger of the rooms are on the small side & perhaps more suitable for a single person and I found the way the lighting in the bathroom was connected to the lighting in the room a little odd.”

“We just used this hotel for one night to see a show. Location was brilliant - a minute from Carnaby Street and Soho. Check in was hassle free, and the room was perfect. Not huge, but there was a classic Premier Inn bed, great shower, and everything you needed for your stay. The room was spotless! Service was excellent. We needed a couple of extra pillows that were provided without fuss. All in all, a nice place for a short stay!”

“If you’re looking for a central spot that’s close to all the go to tourist attractions (buckingham palace, Westminster abbey, etc) this is it! Hotel is clean and beautiful with a great staff and all your standard Marriott amenities with a nice little upgrade. And the view was absolutely unbeatable. They have a full roundabout drop off area which is really great for cab pick up and drop offs, a rarity in the city. We had afternoon tea at the Library which absolutely lived up to its reputation of beautiful views and great tea service. Kings cross was even a quick cab ride away. Overall 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for a comfortable, convenient, and elevated stay in the heart of London.”

“Probably the best hostel in all of London! The location is great, just a 10 minute walk from Tower Bridge and Tower of London, which is also a Circle and District line station, making travel around the city very easy. Check in was simple, and the rooms have pretty comfy bunk beds with assigned lockers to store your things. Everything was clean and tidy, and the staff were very kind should you want to replace your towels or linens or anything. The shower is notably wonderful -- great pressure and temperature. We were lucky enough to get a room with a view out onto this gorgeous church next door! There's fans in each bunk if you're too hot, and radiators if you're too cold. The bar downstairs only opens at 6, but it's a great spot to hang out with lots of mat-covered benches, a pool table, and an L-shaped bar in this cool arched brick space, staffed by super cool and friendly people (shoutout to Cassie here!) and full of friendly fellow patrons who are happy to chat to anyone in the vicinity. Laundry was somewhat expensive at 5 pounds a load for washing, but they provide detergent which was a godsend, and let's be honest, this is London. The cafe near reception has great coffee, and a variety of pastries, as well as a nice little sit-down, bookshelf-laden area to enjoy them. I'd recommend them any day, and will likely be booking back in again in the near future! Thanks so much Wombat!”

“St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel London I would love to share my experience as a wedding photographer, having photographed the wedding of two brides at this beautiful London venue. There is absolutely no doubt that this place is visually stunning, offering endless opportunities for photographs. The interiors are truly breathtaking. If the grand exterior impresses you, just wait until you see inside. The staircase is particularly spectacular. As a wedding photographer, I also had the pleasure of working with the venue’s Wedding Events Manager, the wonderful Lauren Franey. I first met her during a pre-wedding recce visit, and her warmth and professionalism made the whole experience even more enjoyable. It was a real privilege to photograph a wedding in such a historic and iconic setting, right in the heart of one of London’s most vibrant areas. If you are planning your wedding and looking for a special place, I recommend a visit to the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel. I am sure you will be as impressed as I was by the elegance, richness and unique atmosphere of this remarkable venue.”
