2. The Berkeley (from USD 1063)

Right in the heart of London, the Berkley Hotel impresses with superb style, exquisite cuisine, and an amazing rooftop pool. During their stay, guests can pamper themselves with a fine dining experience at Marcus Wareing, the hotel’s two-Michelin star restaurant. The rooms come with marble bathrooms, luxurious linens, and chic, elegant style. The hotel is particularly preferred by couples who also enjoy exploring the hotel’s surroundings.

What the Berkeley may seem to lack in pomp and grandeur (although many will arguably disagree) it more than makes up for in comfort and in its staff’s attention to detail. Pop singing superstar Madonna is said to be a fan of the rooftop pool, as well as of the art deco-themed Blue Bar. Care for some afternoon tea? The Caramel Room is where you can enjoy this very British tradition.

London Tour Guide

Robert Woolf

Robert Woolf

I am a London tour guide and my tours include talking about people who have shaped the city plus the many connected places such as Hampton Court Palace, The Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, the commercial centre of the city: the City of London, and London’s world class museums and galleries. I have been guiding for 12 years. I am a licenced London Blue Badge Tour Guide, a City of London Guide, and a Westminster Guide. The reviews I receive from clients speak of their enjoyment from the local knowledge and the humour I bring to my tours. Born within sight of Hampton Court Palace, I am a Londoner and apart from 2 years in the Middle East, I have worked in this capital city all my business and tour guiding careers. I have travelled widely and I appreciate what appeals to visitors coming to London. I can tailor my tours to interest children. I guide couples, families and larger tour groups. I particularly enjoy visits to Westminster Abbey, where I also volunteer guiding students and children through its wonderful interior – on my tours you will hear about monarchs, why scientists and poets are remembered, the architecture and religious history. The Abbey is the story of England. Come on an engaging and fun tour with me. There is so much to show you !
