The 30 Best Upscale lodging options in London

“Very stylish hotel in central location with top transport links. Rooms are quiet and beds are great. Lots of Amenities , pool and spa are icing on the cake. Service is top. Only two small things to fault during our stay - the Aircon seems to reset when u leave the room and was always cold on return , had to turn temperature back up and we had a lovely view but very dirty widows. Go and find the hidden lovely hotel bar around a corner”

“A spacious, well designed and immaculately finished Victorian house with a large kitchen and beautiful garden. Very well situated near the charming, tucked away pubs, bars and restaurants of Forest Gate, a stone's throw from Wanstead Flats, and a short walk to easy transport into central London. Host Tamara is absolutely fantastic. A definite 5 out of 5 experience.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Amazing hotel and great service. The rooms are so clean and comfortable. We booked the king guest room and the reception gave us a complimentary upgrade to the executive suite. So appreciated. The beds in these rooms are huge and so comfortable. Such a great experience. Will always be booking the Hilton Wembley for every event we attend in future.”

“It was my 1st time staying at Nobu Hotel, and definitely not last. The experience was absolutely out of this world. Rooms are spotless and very comfortable. And the customer service, absolutely incredible. Staff is always very helpful and friendly, I had the pleasure of meeting Erel and Dafy at the front desk. They made sure that everything was taken care of for me and they did it with a big smile. For me it was the best customer service ever. Overall it has been an amazing stay (it's a shame it was one night only) and I would reccomend it to anyone.”

“Great location and good family room size. Helpful reception and great parking albeit very tight to get in and out. Only improvement required is a microwave to warm milk for kids as going to the restaurant and seeking help was a bit of a nuisance. Will come again!”

“I had a wonderful stay at 100 Queen’s Gate Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome and taken care of. The hotel is beautifully designed. Our room was spotless, well cleaned and arranged, spacious, and beautifully decorated. peaceful and relaxing the atmosphere was. we can’t wait to return.”

“This is a grand hotel. Impeccable service. Very helpful staff. Very good breakfast. Rooms are very quiet. Bed are grand and rooms adequate. Location is fabulous, as it sits across from Hyde Park. Two tube stops nearby, only a few steps from the hotel entrance. Restaurants within two blocks provide varied menus, which is good since restaurant at the hotel has a limited menu and subpar service. Highly recommended overall.”

“Option 1: Excellent location, perfect for UK tour travelers. Clean and comfortable rooms with good facilities. Staff was friendly and supportive throughout the stay. Option 2: A nice hotel for UK tour visitors. Rooms were neat, cozy, and well equipped. Overall a pleasant and relaxing experience”

“We were arranged by the British Airways as our flight was delayed. We arrived at check in counter at about 6:00 pm, all the check in process is smooth and efficient, the staff is nice to gave us the meals coupons and recommended us to take the right time shuttle bus to airport in order to catch the flight tomorrow morning. The hotel renovation is fair, the decoration hanging on the wall of the corridor is unique. The room is clean and spacious, bed & the quilting is comfy, environment is quiet. There have fridge, kettle & the shower have great water pressure, the only thing I concern is the hair dryer is so poor. The experience over all for us is very good and we will recommend this hotel to my friends.”

“Great location. One of the nicest hotels I have stayed in, with a kitchenette, fridge, Nespresso coffee maker but strangely no crockery or plates, just cups. 2 armchairs, chair and desk to work at, and a nice breakfast. The bed and room temperature were comfortable. There are fresh food stations, and water machines with refillable bottles supplied which is a great touch. Frankly, I’d happily live here.”

“As a property owner, I’ve had a really good experience with Domus Stay - super professional but also lovely people. Nothing is too much trouble. They really look after the property and communicate well with me too. I highly recommend”

“Irene and Lauren were amazing. Cannot recommend Sundance Villas enough. The communication, the booking process and paperwork, and of course Villa Quardia in Cyprus was amazing. The car hire they suggested was also first class with a car just outside arrivals ready and waiting for us, which made our escape from the airport a no fuss, no waiting experience. The directions to our remote villa( including junction and turning photos ) meant we couldn’t go wrong. Amazing location too and it's a lovely big house with a clean pool and great views. Thank you”

“The Connaught is pure timeless elegance. From the moment you enter, you’re surrounded by warmth, grace, and impeccable service. The interiors are beautifully designed, blending classic charm with modern sophistication. Every detail from the floral arrangements to the bar cocktails feels thoughtful and refined. It’s not just a hotel, it’s a true London institution that makes every guest feel at home in the most luxurious way possible.”

“The Beaumont Mayfair is an exceptional hotel and I cannot wait to go back. Our room was lovely and appointed with so many thoughtful amenities. The bed was probably the most comfortable I've ever slept on in a hotel, it was heavenly! The location is fantastic. But probably the most impressive thing about the hotel is the staff, the whole team is wonderful and very welcoming. In particular, I want to thank Adrianna, the kind angel who with grace and humor helped a mortified lady who accidentally locked herself out of her room when placing a room service cart outside her door (barefoot while wearing a bathrobe). ;)”

“I stay many nights and defenitely I will come back, very nice lady and bright and clean room. There is all is need to cook and is amazing”

“Excellent location, the rooms quite complete and the cleaning service fulfilled! I really enjoyed staying there, I’ll be back soon :)”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Elliot and Mark at M2 for the service charge accounts, and I am consistently impressed with the accuracy of their figures. Their team is incredibly thorough, ensuring that no detail is overlooked. They are always quick to respond. If you are looking for a reliable and efficient block management company, I highly recommend M2 Property.”

“I had a wonderful stay with thesqua.re serviced apartments. The unit was clean, modern, and well-equipped, making it feel just like home. A special thanks to Sandy who went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect throughout my stay. Her professionalism, quick responses, and genuine care made a huge difference. Highly recommended!”

“I had an amazing stay at Lexham Gardens by Cheval Maison. Everything was perfect, from the exceptional service and friendly staff to the spotless cleanliness and beautiful, modern design. Before my arrival, I sent an email requesting to check in a day earlier, and they promptly replied with confirmation, offering me the same rate. On the day of check-out, I decided to extend my stay for one more night, and once again, they accommodated my request with the same rate, which I truly appreciated. The only concern I had was the soundproofing it wasn’t up to par, and I could hear noises from outside my room. Aside from this, everything else exceeded my expectations, and I truly enjoyed my time here. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, style, and top-notch service.”

“Lovely hotel, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Beautifully decorated hotel, rooms we immaculately clean. We stayed in a music theme room on the 5th floor. It was lovely and quiet, room was spacious and comfortable. We had a fantastic nights sleep. I loved the little duck in the bathroom made me smile! And the extras in the fridge were a nice touch and greatly appreciated after a busy day! We would definitely stay again. Location is incredible so convenient for the tube, the museum and lots of lovely cafes and restaurants. My only disappointment was that we couldn’t get food in the hotel before 6pm which we needed to do as we were heading out early and we arrived back at the hotel after 12 hoping for a little nightcap but even on a Friday night we were told bar was closed and the concierge couldn’t recommend anywhere in the area where we could go! Which was a bit of a disappointment. But all in all it was a very pleasant stay! Our only regret is not booking breakfast or afternoon tea in the drawing room! It looked stunning! Had we more time there we would have. But I’m sure we will be back! Overall very comfortable pleasant stay on top location!”

“Very wheelchair-friendly student accommodation, located in central London. Safe and comfortable.”

“I don't know how I found this please but I just did after hours of searching a non-chained hotel, classic British looking that has maintained its elegance, remote location and offers wonderful perks and I was lucky to find this place. We booked to celebrate our overdue wedding anniversary and our only regret is that we could have stayed one more day! The building and setting looks like one of those that appears in Downtown Abbey's series! The reception staff (despite being new) attended to us and checked us in by letting us know our room was upgraded. She was courteous and soft spoken. We requested 3 course dinner meal as part of our stay, which was fulfilled as well. Our room was gorgeous, there was a hand written note with gesture of box of chocolates, which I am thankful for. It is to welcome us on our anniversary stay. The room was rustic, classic and clean with office table and a soft with a view. The standard condiments were available such as teas and coffees but in addition there were biscuits, popcorns and crisps. Once checked in, we went out to walk around the gorgeous building and then towards Virginia Lake. We got back and went for our 3 course meal. The dining experience was slightly a let down. Both courses (starters and main) had limited options and the ones I would have gone for had extra supplement charges. So we ended up having what's offered as part of the package - I had pork chop, it was dry and had no flavour and my wife had plaice, which had £10 supplement but she too didn't enjoy it that much. Our pudding however something we both enjoyed. However, our breakfast experience compensated for the dinner experience! The spread wasn't overbearing, yet wasn't too little either. The English breakfast looked freshly cooked, there was no strained liquid on bacon (though it was a bit dry), sausages, hash browns, mushrooms looked too tempting to resist. They had freshly baked pastries as well and cold breakfast like yogurt/berries/salami/fruits etc. I would go back to this hotel just for the breakfast! It was so comforting. On this occasion, it might be a pure luck - we went on a weekend where the hotel was hosting "wedding show", so at our point of check out, the singer Frank Cognoscenti of Sinatra Tribute was performing. We spent 20-25 mins listening to Sinatra songs which was wonderfully sung by this gentlemen, who also sang My Way at my request...what a way to end our weekend away. With or without Sinatra, with or without dining experience, we would come back here again as we loved the location, the building and the hospitality of this hotel. Anyone who reads my reviews by now would note, its not just the food or the how "up market" it is but its more about little gestures that make you feel warm and cosy and want to come back again. And thats what RBH has achieved. Highly recommended.”

“Would recommend highly. Rooms a little tired but absolutely fine and clean. Great breakfast and lovely helpful owner”

“Room was quite hot. Had to open French windows but was on first floor so did not feel safe leaving them open to the terrace all night. Bed was harder than I like. Otherwise good room. Slightly over equipped with gadgets but ability to use your own apps on tv is handy. Very convenient for exploring and decent food served late on room service. Breakfast not great for £20. Worth strolling out to cafes. Helpful staff. Good value for area.”

“I’ve lived at Sienna House for almost 4 years and it’s been an outstanding experience from start to finish. The residence managers, Samuel and Mima, have always gone above and beyond to support residents—any issue, big or small, is addressed quickly and professionally. The building itself is modern, with great amenities including a gym, lounge, coworking spaces, parcel storage, and a fantastic roof terrace. The location couldn’t be better: just a short walk to the train station and Sutton High Street, making commuting and shopping incredibly easy. Overall, Sienna House provides not only comfort and convenience but also a true sense of community. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality living and reliable management.”

“Very good experience, we will repeat once visiti our family in Croydon, hopefully soon. Colors and design of rooms and public spaces are amazing in all details. Lack of elevator can be tricky for someone that is not fit, but probably it's marked in the description. Even if pub was open and Halloween Party on, zero noise in the room, so very good.”
