London in $5300s-$7800s RT

RING RING, London's calling... 

Time to step into one of those adorable red telephone boxes and pick up the receiver. While you're at it, hop onto an iconic double-decker bus. Walk across Tower Bridge. Take a spin on the London Eye. Catch a glimpse of the Crown Jewels. Snap a photo with one of those guys in the reaaaally tall hats... You get the point; do all the British stuff. 

There really isn't much this city doesn't have to offer. Get lost in the endless antiques at Notting Hill's Portobello Street market. Grab a curry on Brick Lane. Take a serenaded boat ride from Camden Lock. Admire the view from Primrose Hill. Eat your way around the stalls of Borough Market. The list goes on (and on, and on, and on). Suuuuure, you're seeing fares during soggy season, but what could be more authentically British, right? Plus, if the past few years are anything to go by, the spring dates will be wall-to-wall blue skies. 

And after a flight with alllllll the first-class trimmings, from lounge access to lie-flat seats, you'll land with a spring in your step and a belly full of in-air fine-dining delights. Here's a list of top-tier hotels in the city to stretch those luxe vibes out for as long as possible. Go hard or go home, as they say :-)
