The Perfect Multi-Generational Holiday

As Dr Samuel Johnson once said, “By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show”. London is a microcosm of what the world has to offer from jaw-dropping architecture to world-class interactive museums. A stay at Brown’s Hotel places you, and your family, in the perfect location from which to enjoy a private tour of the city’s iconic landmarks, discover London’s multicultural markets and vibrant street art, or hop onto a speed boat down the Thames, and gain a new perspective on the city’s most iconic landmarks.

Inspire Creativity
Private Street Art and Markets Tour

London is one of the few truly global art hubs, where Old Master museums collide with cutting edge commercial galleries, but in recent years the colourful graffiti and street art has become a must-see in itself. Kids of all ages will love exploring this other side to the city, and our private child-friendly guide will lead you through the alleys and annexes of Shoreditch, Spitalfields and Brick Lane in East London to discover extraordinary murals and hidden scribbles from urban Picassos such as D*Face and Banksy. 

Adventure Seekers
Private RIB charter on the Thames

Experience views of the city aboard a private speed boat and hold on tight as the RIB shoots down the river at 30 knots past the London Eye, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and the iconic Tower Bridge. A spy themed adventure, an actor-guide and trained powerboat handler will whip guests down the Thames to the sound of the James Bond theme tune. The trip ends with a turbo blast through the Docklands, past Canary Wharf.

Time Travel
Private Iconic Tour of London for Kids

Our child-friendly guide will collect you from Brown’s in a chauffeured car and whisk you on an interactive journey of 2000 years of history, visiting iconic landmarks with a few hidden treats thrown in along the way: we’ll pop into the Queen’s favourite tea trader, meet some pigeon-eating pelicans, feed over-friendly squirrels and pat horses at Horse Guards, among some truly memorable London-centric activities, each tailored to children’s ages.

 Special Moments
Back at the hotel: Plenty of treats

After a busy morning exploring London’s iconic sights, it’s time to soothe your senses at The Spa at Brown’s. Adults can indulge in an array of treatments, including an aromatherapy massage or Irene Forte facial, using plant-based ingredients from our organic Sicilian farm. The little ones will love being pampered too, with a range of child-friendly spa treatments including manicures, pedicures and massages. Then, as a family, enjoy a quintessentially British afternoon tea, and if you’re celebrating why not add champagne, cake and balloons. And don’t forget to explore our fun seasonal activities, from cooking classes to meeting Father Christmas himself on Christmas day.

Pet Friendly Stays - Our Canine Concierge

For many, dogs are part of the family, and their place is with us - even when we travel. In some of Europe’s most beautiful cities, our hotels extend a warm welcome to your four-legged friends, with thoughtful touches in-room, friendly spaces to ‘paws’ together, and a concierge ready with tips for the best local walks. From shaded parks to riverside trails and neighbourhood cafés that set out water bowls at the door, every detail is designed to make them feel as at home as you do.

Serenity in the City

Contrary to popular belief, a sense of wellbeing doesn’t have to follow a set formula. Rather, it’s simply the moments which bring you back to yourself. For some, it’s a morning swim followed by a restorative massage. For others, it’s curling up in a quiet corner with a good book, or a pause beneath a centuries-old fresco in a hushed church. In Europe’s capitals, these precious moments of calm are easier to find than one might expect. Whilst a city break is often imagined as a fast-paced affair, sometimes we discover more when we choose to stand still. 

Little readers, big city

Stories have a wonderful way of colouring the world around us. For children, a book can make a destination feel alive; pavements turn into paths to adventure, statues hint at secret histories, even a hotel suite becomes part of the tale. Across Europe’s great cities, we’ve paired beloved stories with the places that inspired them, from surrealist imaginings in Brussels to a young girl’s journey through London, inviting little readers to explore with fresh wonder.
