The Lanesborough claims to be the most prestigious luxury hotel in London and it's easy to see why.

The impressive building, housing 95 rooms, was built as a country retreat for the second Viscount Lanesborough in 1719.

I was blown away by the sheer extravagance of the whole hotel; it's a place for those with serious money, but it retains a relaxed charm making even the thriftier of us feel comfortable.

How do you get there? Best bet is to get Nationwide Express,
