On Cricklewood Broadway in north-west London, The Crown London brings a touch of grandeur to a well-connected corner of the capital. The Grade II-listed Victorian building has real presence, from its handsome architecture to its high-ceilinged interiors, and its rooms are spacious and quietly stylish, a calm retreat from the city's hum. Arrive after a day on your feet and the building's character settles around you at once.
There is plenty to enjoy under one roof. The Grill Restaurant serves relaxed dining just steps from your room, while the bar provides a welcoming place to unwind, and a well-equipped gym and a sun terrace round out the stay. Four versatile meeting and event rooms make it a capable choice for work as well as leisure. Sink into a seat in the lounge as evening falls, all dark wood and Victorian proportions, and the day's pace eases.
The location works hard for you. Wembley Stadium and the Brent Cross shopping centre are close, the cricketing home of Lord's lies a few miles off, and Portobello Road and Camden are within easy reach. Frequent buses and Tube links carry you into the West End, Soho and the rest of central London in around 20 minutes, so the capital's landmarks never feel far. Whether you are here for a match, a show or a city break, base yourself at The Crown London, WorldHotels Distinctive hotel, and let London open up from your doorstep.
