And Traveling the World
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned since moving to London is that the city’s best bits are also its best-kept secrets. The greatest pubs are always tucked away off the high street, and the coziest coffee shops are always slightly off the beaten path. It’s true of London’s neighborhoods, too. Some of the most beloved are also some of least obvious. Like Richmond.
London is a feast for the senses, and afternoon tea at Le Meridien Piccadilly is no exception. Its themed tea offerings take inspiration from things like exhibitions at Tate Modern. They’re feasts for the eyes, with color playing a dominant role in many of the artists’ works. And in feasts for the mouth, Le Meridien Piccadilly hotel uses that as a guide for delicious afternoon teas.

But there’s something to look forward to even before school lets out: the opening of the greatly anticipated Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs exhibition at the Tate Modern on Thursday. I got a special sneak preview this morning, and here’s what I found.
Today I want to share my review of the Conrad London St James hotel in Westminster with you. This luxury hotel in London is a great place to stay if you want to be in the heart of the city near London landmarks like the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace.
