Ask for hotels in or near Soho or other ***borhoods of the city, perhaps also a Schrager hotel, or hotels with distinctive features or those in or near interesting parts of the city for the *** visitor.

London ***borhoods of Soho, Hoxton, Islington and Vauxhall are full of great restaurants. First Out cafe-Bar, Balans Cafe, Bistrotheque, Les Trois Garcons, Steph’s, the Alisan and the Providores and Tapa Room are amongst the standouts.

Where ***s would enjoy a night out

London has more than 200 *** and ******* bars and clubs to check out. Soho is the main entertainment zone;but, Vauxhall is gaining quite a re****tion for harder clubbing and a burgeoning alternative *** scene. Bars are generally open until 11 PM from Monday through Sa****ay. Bars close half hour early on Sundays and religious holidays. Some also have late licenses for Fridays and Sa****ays and even weekdays. If you want a late night out, you will need to find out the timings that will accommodate your wish.

The G-A-Y bar, Scala, Shadow Lounge and Heaven (also one of the biggest *** clubs in Europe) are amongst the standouts. The city is dominated by super clubs with small club nights added to the mix. The latter have timings and venues that might change to be aware of. The Sunday experience not to be missed is SLAGS/Chill Out at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern (one of London’s founding *** bars).

Shops to visit

If you are looking for designer clothing sold directly, the Sunday event the Sunday Up Market at the Truman Brewery on Brick Lane is for you. A visit to London without a stop at ***’s the Word would be incomplete. This bookstore is the United Kingdom’s most comprehensive *** and ******* bookstore.

Some places to relax

The Paris Gym. The Soho Gyms and Oasis are gyms to check out. The Nickel, the Refinery, Gentleman’s Tonic and Wholeman are spas to have yourself pampered during your stay.
