Whether this is your first visit or a return visit, planning a trip to London is somewhat of an adventure in itself – presenting attractions and exhibitions, architectural masterpieces and incredible outdoor spaces designed to delight and intrigue visitors of all ages.
But while exploring everything on the doorstep of your boutique hotel in West London presents plenty of opportunity to immerse yourself in the central London sights and attractions, researching unique family adventures is a great way to see more of the city and engage the whole family.
Open Top Bus Tour
If you’re exploring London with younger children, you need to be aware that walking long distances is going to take time and will require plenty of stops. Which is why we favour open top bus tours as a unique and exciting experience which lets you tick off some of the major sites and landmarks in one go.
Combining fun and engaging information and insight with a comfortable seat and the excitement of seeing your Heeton Concept Hotel as you drive past en route to the next stopping point on your tour, an open top bus tour is the height of London tourism – and is worth every penny.
Madame Tussauds
The huge range of attractions, galleries, and museums in London means that some attractions can become overlooked in favour of neighbouring stops. Madame Tussauds is often relegated as a place where you simply wander through wax works of London’s royalty and celebrities – however, it is much more immersive and exciting than that. Adventure through different themed rooms and learn about London’s history as well as its celebrity culture in this attraction which is just minutes away from the hotels in Hammersmith.
Toy Stores in London
It’s impossible to visit London and not indulge in at least a little retail therapy – but shopping with kids can be arduous and tiresome for everyone involved. Which is why, when it comes to browsing London’s top stores with the whole family, we recommend sticking to the toy stores; from the iconic Hamleys to M&M World, the Lego Store, the Disney Store, and more.
And while we’re on the topic of shopping and retail therapy, another stopping point on your adventure tour of London should be Kidzania. Kidzania is an immersive world of business that’s designed for kids, enabling them to try out and learn about different lifestyles and career opportunities, all inside the Westfield Shopping Centre in White City.
London Parks
Finally, if you’re visiting London in the summer then you can’t go wrong with a trip to the London parks – whether you head to Regent’s Park or keep it local to your Heeton Concept Hotel Kensington by visiting Kensington Gardens and adjoining Hyde Park. With London home to some of the UK’s finest green spaces, whole families can enjoy time spent on the lakes, sports pitches, and exploring the network of footpaths which connect the different sections of these parks.
And if you head to Regent’s Park, you might even catch a glimpse of ZSL London Zoo’s residents…
