London , a vibrant city steeped in history yet thoroughly modern, offers a diverse selection of luxury hotels. In fact, the U.K.
capital has one of the world’s largest collections of Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotels — an impressive 16 (bested only by Macau ’s 22). Whether you seek a sophisticated getaway in Mayfair or an art-driven hot spot in Covent Garden, you can trust Forbes Travel Guide’s exclusive list — we have been rating hotels since 1958 using an objective and independent process. To find the best hotels in London, our incognito inspectors posed as ordinary guests and stayed multiple nights at each property.
