One of the greatest joys of parenting is the opportunity to spend quality time alone with each child. While having multiple kids means sharing moments, the tranquility of one-on-one time can feel truly magical. Recently, I had a week to spend with my youngest, Liam, during our trip to London with my mother over spring break. As a third child, Liam has always been easygoing and easily delighted. I once witnessed his sheer joy when he received a brand-new set of pajamas instead of his older siblings’ hand-me-downs. “They match!!!” he exclaimed, much to the amusement of my family who questioned my parenting choices.
I had high hopes for our London adventure, not just to escape the endless sibling bickering, but also to explore the city together. Thankfully, our plans unfolded beautifully. We immersed ourselves in the vibrant culture, catching performances of Wicked and The Lion King, indulging in far too many petit fours during afternoon tea, and squeezing in some much-needed shopping. One child’s occasional complaints felt like a breeze compared to the usual chorus of three!
Among the highlights of our trip was our stay at The London Edition. This stunning hotel, a fusion of five Georgian townhouses from 1835, was brought to life by Ian Schrager, a co-founder of Studio 54, and Marriott. For design enthusiasts, the place is nothing short of eye candy.
“Wow,” Liam exclaimed as we entered the lobby. I was in the midst of a home renovation project and couldn’t resist capturing inspiration from the hotel’s aesthetic. Just take a look at this gorgeous bar—definitely not overkill for my own home, right? The dining area was equally breathtaking, making it hard to resist snapping a few more photos.
During our stay at The London Edition, I indulged in two baths daily. With such a pristine bathroom, I couldn’t help but admire its immaculate design—far tidier than my own! The staff greeted us warmly upon our arrival and departure, and each night we returned to our room, there was a delightful surprise waiting for us. It’s the little touches that truly elevate a hotel experience, and this one was no exception.
A memorable hotel can significantly enhance a trip, so a heartfelt thank you to The London Edition for making our stay exceptional! We enjoyed a discounted rate during our visit, but all opinions expressed are genuinely mine.
