Our spin on a concierge, Renaissance Hotels Navigators are local experts who have been hand-picked to help you find what the guidebooks can't tell you.

The British Library

The British Library is located next-door to our hotel and it is a home to number of books and manuscripts displayed to the public for free. Be sure not to miss Magna Carta but also Captain Cook's journal. Every music fan can visit The British Library Sound Archive and listen to old recordings. My personal favourite is the statue of Isaac Newton in the main piazza, sculptured by Eduardo Paolozzi.

Dishoom King`s Cross

If you fancy a travel in time and space into an old Bombay during the 1920s, this branch of Dishoom is exactly for you. Food is both original and comforting. The most sought-after black dhal is legendary and butter nans are dangerously addictive. Dinner time you can book a table of 6 and more and sip on a Bombay Martini while waiting for your group to arrive.

The Lighterman

The Lighterman is owned by the same people behind Alfred Tennyson, one of my favourite drinking spots in London. The location is stunning and you have to sit on a terrace or right next to one of its massive windows. The cocktail menu is extensive and reasonably priced. I love their fish and chips with home made tartar sauce .Go there for breakfast or brunch and cure your head with bloody Mary.

The Harry Potter Shop at Platform 9 ¾

Every die-har fan of Harry Potter books has to visit this iconic location. There is something great in seeing people in their 30s pushing a shopping cart and trying to disappear into a station wall. You are sure to be simply amazed to find a whole world of magic inside. Some of the items are exclusively made and you are guaranteed to leave with a smile on your face.

Spiritland

It is simply impossible not to admire this stunning creation, a perfect marriage of music and cocktails. Especially if you are an audiophile like me, this might be your favorite bar in London from now on. Although the analog sound system is definitely the star of the show, they serve excellent food and deserts all day. Come over in the evening and you might see someone famous behind the decks.

18Montrose

You cannot imagine a better location for this shopping experience located in one of the spacious arches of the restored Grain store building. The way that the items are displayed reminds one more of a modern art gallery with clean square shapes and massive mirrors that multiply reflection. It's a great place to just pop in and have a chat and get the latest updates about sport fashion.
