The Best Family-Friendly Hotels in London
"Best for: tons of entertainment options Closest tube station: Knightsbridge With its Knightsbridge postcode and elegant, Art Deco-style rooms peering over Hyde Park, The Berkeley is a swanky hotel that will stay etched in shared family memory for decades. This is mostly courtesy of its rooftop pool (a rare species in London) and mirrored and marbled suites that could double up as a Manhattan hedgefunder's city property. Delicious smelling organic baby products, novelty soaps, and bottle warmers ensure parents of babies and tiny tots are well equipped. Of course, there is the Berkeley bunny, the personalized welcome treats and bed linen, and the films and games consoles for older children, but it’s this classic hotel’s raft of children’s activities that make it such an appealing proposition for families. From mini-manicures to arranging tickets to must-see shows, the Berkeley is plugged-in on how to keep the kids entertained. They also know a thing or two about grown-ups: cue top-drawer childminding services to relish all five courses from Marcus Wareing’s tasting menu, followed by elaborate cocktails at the Blue Bar." - Rosalyn Wikeley
