The best places to base yourself in London
Mayfair is the heart of luxury London — Claridge's, the Connaught, and the galleries and restaurants of the West End within walking distance. Knightsbridge and Belgravia pair Harrods and Hyde Park with grand, quiet hotels, while Covent Garden and the Strand put you among the theaters and the river.
London's grande-dame hotels rarely sit at one price across the booking sites. Vio compares more than a hundred sources at once, so a Mayfair suite or a Knightsbridge residence is easy to secure at the real best rate.

Arriving in London by private jet
London is served by an unusually deep set of business-aviation airports. Farnborough (FAB) is the dedicated private-jet gateway southwest of the city; Luton (LTN) and Biggin Hill (BQH) are well-established alternatives, and London City (LCY) sits closest to the financial district.
Your advisor selects the gateway that fits your schedule and aircraft, then coordinates the FBO handling and the car into town — Mayfair in well under an hour from Farnborough on a clear run.
