The Best Family-Friendly Hotels in London
"Best for: kids who can't get enough of playtime Closest tube station: Victoria This Belgravia stalwart is a family affair (it's one of London’s last family-owned luxury hotels) and twists a selection of rooms, menus and activities to suit children and their parents. Interconnecting rooms—all dressed in Gainsborough silk, thick draped curtains, and cashmere throws—ensure a desirable degree of separation and privacy. Reminiscent of a gentle, fun, and rather eccentric grandfather, The Goring first bestows little guests with a cuddly Baaa-bara Sheep before directing them towards its dress-up box. Once clad in Kingly garbs, the Library beckons where a mix of British classics and more modern fables make for excellent bedtime stories. From whipping up chocolate cookies in the kitchen with chef to concierge Big John’s insider tips on the latest West End shows, there is never a dull moment—buying plenty of opportunities for parents to snatch an hour or so on the veranda for afternoon tea. It’s worth noting that the hotel provides plenty of baby paraphernalia—changing mats, lotions, bath toys —giving sleep-deprived parents the break they so deserve." - Rosalyn Wikeley
