HOTELES APARTAMENTOS NOTICIAS Y COMENTARIOS

London is one of the places Where We Can find the highest concentration of luxury hotels
We commented in our recent post about Hotels, and we want to lighten our tourism posts dedicated to opening new sections in particular. Specifically dedicate this post to luxury hotels in London (see our post here on LONDON overall). The issue could give hours and "ink " as some would say but we decided to narrow the selection, focusing on the luxury segment, in particular, in 12 hotels, a reasonable enough number to facilitate the choice of accommodation for those who trip to London with his pockets full of money.
The offer of luxury hotels in London is concentrated mainly in the districts of Mayfair and Knightsbridge, with 5-star hotels have restaurants and bars in the front line, good spa areas and rooms where they lack detail. But London, as a major city, hides luxury hotels in almost all main downtown neighborhoods.

We divide our neighborhood to neighborhood selection.
Mayfair
THE DORCHESTER

No lack of detail in a top London hotels, with a clear cut classic and overlooking Hyde Park. Mainly emphasize its range of restaurants, including award-winning restaurant Alain Ducasse.

It also has, among others, China Tang, an Asian one point less formal than the last.

The Bar at The Dorchester is one of the favorite places for those who want to see and be seen as the living area, perfect for an afternoon stop. And for anyone looking for relaxation, Dorchester Spa is considered one of the best in the UK.

With a 2 star Michelin restaurant - Hélène Darroze at The Connaught - and 2 swanky bars as part of its offer, the hotel is equally classic decor and style but with modern areas such as Aman Spa.

CLARIDGE'S

Another classic hotel scene in the capital, within walking distance of Connaught. Unlike earlier and while his court, in general, is classic, its rooms have been customized with the touch of top designers. It offers a wide range in terms of restoration concerns although the restaurant Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's is the one that takes the cake.

No spa but it has a fitness area and beauty treatments and therapies.

FOUR SEASONS PARK LANE

We could not miss a representative of the famous chain in London. We stayed with that of Park Lane in Mayfair, while the Four Seasons Canary Wharf is not going to lag. In a classic, yet contemporary style and where not the slightest lack technological advance, the Four Seasons offers spacious, modern and common spaces where glass above all commands, either alone or in combination of gardens and other spaces. With a normal restaurant offer is the spa that takes the cake - one of the most modern and complete in the UK - as well as the terrace in the hotel, overlooking Hyde Park immediate and a large part of central London.

Knightsbridge & Belgravia

MANDARIN ORIENTAL

Jumping to Knightsbridge, the first name on the list is the Mandarin Oriental london, like true reflection of British life, which is evident in rooms and common areas. In the chapter of restoration enough to say that 2 are represented illustrious chefs: Daniel Boulud and Heston Blumenthal. The first one of the most famous French restaurateurs, located in New York and a restaurant on the Upper East Side awarded 3 Michelin stars, the second, Heston Blumenthal, is not going to the rear, being the most renowned chef in the United Kingdom for his restaurant The Fat Duck. Highlights, in addition, the garden terrace area, an oasis in an area as busy as Knightsbridge, where you can take something as an alternative to the ever-animated The Bar at Mandarin Oriental.

And speaking of Knightsbridge, just a few meters from the Mandarin Oriental, The Berkeley is located, one of the most complete luxury hotels throughout the area in London. Classic style and outside of their rooms, offers glimpses of modernity in its restaurants and leisure areas.
As far as restaurants are concerned, The Berkeley has 2 of the best in the city: Pétrus, also known as Marcus Wareing at The Berkeley.y Koffmann's, with Pierre Koffman as a conductor. Also has the Blue Bar, one of the most beautiful and original bars that one can find in London and the Caramel Room, perfect for afternoon tea.

Very different from all the above, Blake's is a concept of "boutique" luxury in a set of old Victorian houses in the neighborhood of Chelsea.

No big deal in terms of potential welfare concerns, the biggest attraction focuses on his restaurant and bar area, where it is not uncommon to see celebrities, musicians, designers, public recurrent in this small hotel but very charming.
Covent Garden & Piccadilly
THE RITZ

We could not miss in this review represent a leading hotel luxury for over a century - in London and other cities - such as the Ritz. While its exterior call more attention to the views of Green Park to the building itself, the interior is the one that transports you to another era, in a centennial hotel as this.

Rooms like the one we serve afternoon tea leaves you stunned and wanting to know the restaurant itself, equally remarkable from the artistic point of view.

The Savoy

Hotel mythical - well above the centennial - the British capital has recently lived in the flesh a total renovation but has retained the Art Deco style with modern elements, both in rooms and common areas. It has the River Restaurant - taking advantage of the location, overlooking the Thames - as well as another restaurant with the seal of Gordon Ramsay.

THE WALDORF HILTON

In the same area as the Savoy, a few minutes walk, there emerges the Waldorf Hilton, maybe more than all the previous executive, probably because they were in the entrance of the City of London. With a first class service and a classic rooms - as expected - highlights the heated swimming pool, some not so normal in the hotels in London.

THE LANDMARK

Away from the traditional circuit of luxury hotels in Mayfair and Knightsbridge, The Landmark is one of the best luxury hotels of the city, with the seal of The Leading Hotels of the World. Impose many common areas outside and inside, like the huge glazed terrace.
