Destination
United Kingdom
Luxury hotel reviews, travel guides, and stories.
From the towering skyline of London to the historic streets of Scotland, our journey through the United Kingdom was a masterclass in how old-world charm can coexist with modern luxury. We loved discovering how iconic landmarks like the Shangri-La Hotel at the Shard offer sleek, contemporary escapes, while The May Fair Hotel keeps things cozy with its traditional hospitality and delicious tapas. For those seeking something unique, grabbing a gourmet dinner on a Bustronome double-decker bus or sipping cocktails at Sky Pod Bar to take in those 155-meter views provided exactly the kind of memorable moments we love sharing with you.
Venturing beyond London, we found each city had its own distinct personality and "shadowy charm." Edinburgh felt incredibly romantic, especially while staying at Nira Caledonia among New Town’s quaint terraces or experiencing the grand history of The Balmoral Hotel. In Glasgow, we were struck by the creative spirit and quirky design of Dakota, while Bullitt Hotel in Belfast offered a perfectly lively atmosphere. Whether it's the sophisticated flavors of Quilon London or the exclusive feel of Four Seasons Hotel at Ten Trinity, there is so much character to uncover across this beautiful corner of the world.
