Between Gordon Ramsay’s signature restaurant, a famous art deco bar and one of the best afternoon teas in London, Claridge’s would be a destination just for its food and drink.

A little like a wedding cake outside and an ornate series of drawing rooms inside, this hotel provides a wonderful introduction to London, new and old.
