A stylish spot for afternoon tea, but be sure to check out the toilets that are shaped like eggs!

The Royal Academy of Arts

A world-renowned gallery with leading exhibitions such as this one from the defiant Ai Weiwei!

BAO

BAO

This restaurant serves simple, yet heavenly Taiwanese dishes. You have to try the peanut milk and the Bao, which are light steamed buns with meat fillings. But be prepared for a long queue, because this place is very very popular!

A great after work boozer. Some of its original features have been retained throughout the years, which give it an authentic pub feel.

A great place to sit and have your lunch in the sunshine.

Jamie's Italian

Jamie's Italian

Just off Piccadilly Circus, this Jamie's Italian is set within a converted pub and has a terrace too that is lovely on a summer's evening. The fresh pastas and cocktails are very tasty!

St Christopher's Place

After a busy day down Oxford Street, nothing beats a quiet escape to this hidden gem tucked in the heart of Marylebone.

I love its design and you get to experience a bit of culture walking from this pretty corner of Green Park to Hyde Park.

Soul Cycle

Soul Cycle

A cult-like following has brought this incredible workout studio from America to its first London location - a great workout!

Beast

Beast

An amazing restaurant for crab and steak. A very cool place where everyone sits on long tables, but don't eat beforehand as it leaves you very full!

Grosvenor Square

Grosvenor Square

Grosvenor Square on a balmy evening beats Hyde Park!

The Grenadier

The Grenadier

A local pub tucked away and open since 1818. It gets incredibly busy with people coming after work and is one of the most haunted pubs in London! They serve a fantastic beef Wellington too!

Berkeley Square

Berkeley Square

A leafy spot to eat lunch on a sunny day and a lovely space to escape too.

Kingly Court

Kingly Court

A variety of restaurants for every occasion and budget, which are centred round a covered courtyard.

Grosvenor House Hotel

A wonderful place to enjoy an afternoon Champagne tea!

"Noisy neighbours! Composer George Handel resided at 25 Brook Street from 1723 and Jimi Hendrix resided at 23 Brook Street from 1968! Hendrix apparently paid £30 per week rent...not quite what it would cost these days!"

Walking along Piccadilly, I love taking in the sites that central London has to offer.

Christopher Sellwood

Say hello to the Queen at London's most recognisable landmark, Buckingham Palace.

Sigita Ranger

London's beautiful back garden, Hyde Park offers an idyllic escape from city life.
