One Aldwych, Covent Garden, London
If you're looking to treat the family to a luxury stay in London, you won't go far wrong with One Aldwych with its plum location for the many attractions of the West End, Covent Garden and the South Bank.
The epitome of luxurious chic, One Aldwych is one for lovers of modern, understated style rather than chintz. There's a beautiful basement pool complete with underwater music, a cinema room, and two stylish but family-friendly restaurants, with Indigo particularly great for Sunday brunches. Kids get a gift on arrival plus their own mini bathrobes and slippers.
The staff couldn't be more attentive or helpful, providing, for instance, baby food and milk as part of the 24-hour room service.
