6 Ways to Get Pampered in London
There’s no place to do luxury better than London. Take a look at the best ways to feel like a celebrity in the Big Smoke.
Afternoon Tea
Dress in your best and tuck into dainty sandwiches, delicate cakes, and beautifully brewed tea. There is a whole range of places that you can go to enjoy afternoon tea in London, from The Ritz to the Savoy. You could even enjoy a relaxing cruise along the River Thames seeing the sights of London as you’re served a selection of sandwiches and cake. Make sure you book in advance because going to high tea is a very popular pastime.
Luxury Shopping
If you’re looking for high-end shopping, then London has the best selection of luxury department stores. Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Liberty, and Fortnum & Mason are all stores well worth visiting for the shopping experience alone – even if the prices are a little out of your range, just being there makes you feel luxurious. Fortnum & Mason, for instance, is a beautiful store that is renowned as a purveyor of fine foods amongst other things and has five different restaurants, including an ice cream parlor.
If you’re looking for more than just department stores, however, head to Bond Street and Mayfair. An exclusive shopping area, it’s perfect for those looking to splash the cash on designers, or just aspirational window shopping.
Restaurants
For a posh restaurant experience, go to a celebrity restaurant. Whether you’re into Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsey, or Michel Roux Jr, finding your favorite chef is easy. Make sure you book in advance!
Spas
Places to Stay
From luxury hotels to serviced apartments, there’s a whole range of choices when it comes to where you should stay. The benefit of a luxury hotel is that you can have everything catered to you, but serviced apartments, meaning that you can have the best of both worlds – your every whim catered for, and you can cook yourself if you so wish!
