Forget the ground level. The London EDITION in Fitzrovia isn’t on the river, but its penthouse suite offers a panoramic view that steals your breath. You’ll see the BT Tower, the Gherkin, and all the little chimneys puffing away. It feels like owning the city, even if just for one night.
Or, go to the CitizenM Tower of London. This place is all about affordable cool. The rooms are small but smart, and the rooftop bar is a hidden gem. You get a direct, unfiltered view of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. It’s like having a front-row seat to a thousand years of history, but with Wi-Fi and a decent cocktail.
