Four Seasons Hotel London at Tower Bridge

The Best Hotels in the World: 2023 Readers’ Choice Awards

"This is a hotel for grownups that manages to be at once grandly historical and unshowy. Credit the muted palette of greiges and modern-leaning decor that cut the Neoclassical and Art Deco interiors down to size. The rooms, with a houndstooth-and-leather, men’s club vibe, and one-touch everything wired via a bedside iPad, feel a bit like James Bond’s lair, while the location, across from the Tower of London in the city’s untouristed financial district, is pretty damn perfect. And naturally, being a Four Seasons, the service is impeccable. A super nice, super modern spa with a lovely lap pool adds to the charm." - CNT Editors
