On-site parking

The Windmill

Clapham, London, England

8
Telegraph expert rating

Located on Clapham Common Southside, The Windmill is a great spot for accessing Central London with Clapham Common and Clapham South tube stations under 10 minutes’ walk (half mile) from the property. Inside, interiors have the feel of a cosy library – with a twist. Enter through the pub to be greeted by a warm fireplace, plush, old leather furniture and often a slew of friendly dogs. The dining area is more polished, with cheery wildlife-themed décor featuring bird and deer motifs, and a sunny conservatory off to the side for breakfast. It’s one of a rare breed of London hotels with free parking – but the 10 on-site spaces are first-come-first-serve.

Shepherd’s Bush, London, England

8
Telegraph expert rating

K West was once the home of BBC Kensington House, and legends including David Bowie, Bob Marley and Amy Winehouse have all played here. Egging up its musical heritage, murals to artists are painted in brightly popping colours all over the hotel and books documenting various music icon’s lives dot each bright, reasonably-sized room. The hotel continues to be popular with musical fans thanks to its proximity to the Hammersmith Apollo, and the Central Line is less than a 10-minute walk.

Marylebone, London, England

Telegraph expert rating

The Langham – highly regarded for its top-notch service, competitive drinking and dining, decadent rooms and spa – is smack in the centre of London, just off Regent Street.

COMO The Halkin

Belgravia, London, England

9
Telegraph expert rating

The Halkin is in the embassy area of Belgravia, between Belgrave Square and Hyde Park corner: very smart and very quiet. The Halkin first opened in 1991 newly built on the site of a former car park in a modern classical style to blend in with the Belgravia mansions which surround it. Regular refurbishment has kept the hotel smart, but the original look has lasted extremely well – a testament to the strength of the original concept. It also has a Michelin-starred restaurant. London Q-Park Knightsbridge is a five-minute walk from the hotel and costs £55 for 24-hour parking (both valet and self-drive).

The Trafalgar St. James

Trafalgar Square, London, England

Telegraph expert rating

The Trafalgar St. James’ location is terrific – particularly if you are new to the capital and want to walk out of the door and see all its famous sights. On the ground floor, now one large, flowing space, design and concept firm AvroKo has reimagined a typical New York all day restaurant and grill, with large central bar area and brasserie style restaurant beyond. On the lower ground floor, Biblio is a good looking living room for hotel guests, while the indoor/outdoor Rooftop has its own character, dominated by its thrilling bird’s eye views of Nelson on his column and beyond.

Royal Lancaster London

Hyde Park, London, England

8
Telegraph expert rating

The Royal Lancaster London has transformed itself from a frowsy four-star infamous for its frightful carpets to the most Instagrammable hotel in West London. Hyde Park across the road is the main attraction; many bedrooms oggle its lime and silver maple trees, and guests can nibble on homemade bircher muesli while enjoying views of the Italian Gardens from their breakfast table. The hotel offers 29 spaces (including an accessible space) in a private car park for guests on a first come, first served basis (45 for 24 hours). But for planning ahead, the London Q-Park Queensway is under a 10-minute walk from the hotel and costs £30 for 24-hour parking.
