Carmen

Where should a family stay in London?

London / The Carmen collectionI'd choose South Bank for a first visit with teenagers, or Covent Garden when theatre and evening plans lead the trip.


Accommodation choices

Which base and room arrangement should you choose?

  1. With teens

    Which base and room arrangement?

    Compare South Bank, Covent Garden and Bloomsbury, then decide how the family sleeps.

    What you give up
    One family room can mean sofa and pull-out beds rather than four permanent beds.

What matters most?

  • What leads the visit?

    Put theatre evenings near the base when they are the reason for coming. Do not locate the whole stay around one out-of-center outing.

  • Do you need two rooms?

    For older teenagers or a long stay, compare privacy and separate beds with the price of a single family room.
