Finding the time for a true vacation is rare — which is exactly why the setting matters. Traveling requires a lot of precious energy, so go somewhere with personality that'll shift your energy the second you arrive. In London, that means booking a stay in a neighborhood that sets the right tone. Virgin Hotels London-Shoreditch does just that. Located in one of East London's most creative pockets, you're surrounded by street art, vintage markets, live theater, restaurants, and nightlife that doesn't feel curated for tourists. Inside, suites and chambers feature floor-to-ceiling windows, plush beds, and luxe bathrooms that make canceling plans feel like a completely reasonable choice. Downstairs, a listening cocktail bar inspired by Virgin Records sets the tone, and the rooftop restaurant delivers London in full frame. If you're carving out the time, don't waste it on generic. |
