63 curated restaurants & dining across London
Ducasse's London restaurant is a masterclass in restraint and luxury. Three Michelin stars, a dining room designed by Jocelyn Warner with a luminous table d'hôte, and French haute cuisine executed with absolute precision. The wine list is an education. Jacket required.
The London outpost of the St Tropez original. French-Mediterranean cuisine, ros\u00e9 magnums, DJ, and a Saturday lunch that escalates from civilised to dancing on tables by 4pm. Mayfair glamour at its most uninhibited.
Core by Clare Smyth holds three Michelin stars and Clare Smyth was named the World's Best Female Chef. The Potato and Roe dish is legendary — a humble potato dressed with dulse, herring and trout roe. The room is elegant and understated. The experience is flawless.
Intimate counter-dining concept on Dover Street. Multi-course tasting menus with Japanese and European influences. The open kitchen theatre, the proximity to the chefs, and the quality of ingredients make this one of Mayfair's most exciting openings.
Juan Santa Cruz's all-day restaurant and bar on Albemarle Street. Pan-Latin and Mediterranean menu, stunning interior with hand-painted tiles, and a late-night scene that draws Mayfair's most stylish crowd. The ceviche and the atmosphere are equally electric.
Bonheur by Matt Abe occupies the hallowed ground of Le Gavroche in Mayfair — the restaurant where the Roux brothers launched fine dining in Britain. Matt Abe, formerly of Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, earned two Michelin stars within months of opening. Classical technique, modern sensibility, extraordinary food.

53 curated bars & nightlife across London
The American Bar has been making cocktails since 1893. Ada Coleman invented the Hanky Panky here. The room is all piano, Art Deco geometry, and black-tie bartending. The cocktail menu tells stories. Every drink is perfect. This is where cocktail culture lives.
1927 Heritage house. English-club cocktails downstairs. Intimate omakase upstairs: eight courses, limited seating, Tuesday to Saturday. The sushiman guides you through the best of the Argentine sea.
The Connaught Bar has been named the World's Best Bar multiple times and it earns it. Agostino Perrone's Martini trolley — where your drink is mixed tableside to your exact specifications — is one of London's great rituals. The David Collins-designed Art Deco room is museum-grade. Dress well.
Intimate Mayfair bar with green velvet, candlelight, and the atmosphere of a 1920s Parisian salon. Creative cocktails, a short but excellent food menu, and the sense of having discovered somewhere genuinely special. Walk-ins welcome but book.
Cocktail bar and restaurant in a Georgian townhouse on Carlton House Terrace. Moody interiors, expertly made drinks, and the feeling of being invited to someone's very glamorous home. Late-night DJs on weekends.
The Devonshire has become one of the most talked-about pubs in London. Ashley Palmer-Watts — formerly executive chef at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal — runs the kitchen with wood-fired grills at the heart. Iberico pork chops, ribeye steaks, lobsters over fire. The ground floor is for drinkers, the dining rooms upstairs are packed every night. It is a pub that operates at restaurant-level quality without any of the pretension.

71 curated hotels & stays across London
SH Hotels' nature-inspired luxury on Berkeley Street. Tom Sellers' Dovetale restaurant, the green wall lobby, and a sustainability ethos that doesn't sacrifice style or comfort. Opened 2023 as Mayfair's most environmentally conscious five-star.
The Dorchester Collection's boutique sibling, directly overlooking Hyde Park. CUT by Wolfgang Puck serves the best steak in London. The rooftop bar, BAR 45, offers park views and creative cocktails. Every room faces the park.
London's first hotel, established in 1837 on Albemarle Street. Rocco Forte's restoration honours the literary heritage — Kipling, Agatha Christie, and Rudyard Kipling all stayed. The English Tea Room and the Donovan Bar anchor the Mayfair social scene.
Italian jewellery house precision applied to Knightsbridge hospitality. A 25-metre pool, Il Bar for cocktails, and the Alain Ducasse restaurant. The spa and the private screening room reflect Bulgari's attention to material and craft.
The Chancery Rosewood opened in the Grade II-listed former US Embassy on Grosvenor Square and immediately became the most talked-about hotel in London. All suites, eight restaurants and bars, a destination spa, and a level of detail that borders on obsessive. The building is magnificent, the service is flawless, and the ambition is unlike anything London has seen in years.
Kit Kemp's Firmdale in Fitzrovia. The Oscar restaurant and bar, the screening room, and interiors inspired by the Bloomsbury Group. The literary neighbourhood setting suits the hotel's character perfectly.

Buckingham Palace has been the official London residence of the sovereign since 1837. The Changing of the Guard ceremony happens most days at 11am and draws enormous crowds — arrive early and stand by the Victoria Memorial for the best view. The State Rooms open to visitors each summer and are genuinely magnificent. The palace facade, the Mall, and St James's Park together form one of London's most iconic walks.
The Palace of Westminster is the seat of British democracy and one of the most recognisable buildings on earth. Big Ben — technically the name of the bell, not the tower — has marked the hour since 1859. Tours of the interior are available when Parliament is in recess and are highly recommended. From the outside, the best view is from the South Bank or Westminster Bridge at dusk when the stone glows gold.
The Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important botanical collections in the world. The Palm House is a Victorian glasshouse masterpiece. The Temperate House is the largest surviving Victorian glass structure on earth. The Treetop Walkway takes you 18 metres above the ground through the canopy. In spring the bluebells are breathtaking. Allow a full day.
The National Gallery sits on the north side of Trafalgar Square and houses one of the finest collections of Western European painting in the world. Van Gogh's Sunflowers, Monet's Water-Lilies, da Vinci's Virgin of the Rocks, and Turner's Fighting Temeraire are all here. It is free, it is magnificent, and the rooms are rarely as crowded as the Louvre. Start in the Sainsbury Wing with the early Renaissance.
The Natural History Museum is housed in one of London's most spectacular buildings — a Romanesque cathedral to nature designed by Alfred Waterhouse. The diplodocus in the main hall sets the tone. The dinosaur gallery is world-class, the earthquake simulator is genuinely unnerving, and the Wildlife Garden is a hidden gem. It is free, it is enormous, and it is one of the best days out in London for families and adults alike.
St Paul's Cathedral has dominated the London skyline since Christopher Wren completed it in 1710. The interior is magnificent — the Whispering Gallery, the Golden Gallery at the top of the dome, and the crypt where Nelson and Wellington are buried. Climb all 528 steps to the top for a 360-degree panorama of London that no skyscraper observation deck can match. The approach up Ludgate Hill is one of London's great architectural moments.

24 curated experiences across London
Hampton Court Palace is a magnificent Tudor palace on the Thames, 12 miles from central London. Henry VIII's Great Hall, the famous hedge maze, the Chapel Royal, and 60 acres of formal gardens are all extraordinary. The Tudor kitchens alone are worth the trip. Take the train from Waterloo — it is 35 minutes. Allow a full day. One of the greatest historic sites in England.
Punchdrunk are the pioneers of immersive theatre and The Burnt City is their latest epic — a retelling of the fall of Troy across two enormous warehouse spaces in Woolwich. You wear a mask, you wander freely, you follow characters through rooms, and the experience is entirely your own. No two visits are the same. It is theatre reimagined as architecture, dance, and dream.
Dennis Severs created a 'still-life drama' in this 1724 Spitalfields house — 10 rooms frozen in time across three centuries, each one staged as though the inhabitants just left. You walk through in silence. Candles flicker. Fires burn. Food sits half-eaten. The Monday evening candlelit sessions are transcendent.
The Electric on Portobello Road has been showing films since 1910 and is one of the oldest working cinemas in the country. The auditorium has leather armchairs, cashmere blankets, footstools, and a bar that serves cocktails to your seat. The front row has double beds. It shows a mix of new releases, independent films, and classics. This is how cinema should be.
Working ranch. Gaucho culture alive: asado, horseback riding, folk dancing. San Antonio de Areco is 110km from BA. Transport, lunch, and activities included.
Fabric in Farringdon is one of the most important nightclubs in the world. The main room has a bodysonic dancefloor that vibrates bass through your body. Room Two programmes the best house and techno DJs on the planet. It opens late, it runs until morning, and the sound quality is extraordinary. If you love electronic music, this is the only club in London that matters.
