It's easy to see why London is one of the world's most-visited cities. With its intriguing mix of history and modern flare, the English capital rarely disappoints. Even if you've been to London countless times, there's always something new to discover. Whether you're after an indulgent weekend of shopping and spa treatments or want to live-it up at the city's world-class nightclubs, London truly has something for everyone.

If you've been to London before, you might find that exploring parts of the city that you've never been before can allow you to get the most out of your stay - some of the city's lesser known attractions can offer a much better day out than going to the bigger ones for the second or third time. Of course, if you're a first time visitor, London is home to some of the world's finest museums, art galleries and historical buildings, and you'd be losing out if you leave without experiencing them.

Regardless of whether or not you're an avid football fan, attending a Premier League football match in London is an experience that few could forget. The atmosphere at any of London's top football stadiums is sure to leave you buzzing with excitement and is a great way to kick-off your visit to the city. With several top Premier League clubs such as Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal located in London, you'll be spoiled for choice as to what match to attend if you decide to go down this route.

For a far less lively experience, treat yourself to a day of relaxation and rejuvenation at one of the city's many spas. Choose a spa that offers package deals so you can enjoy a range of treatments, from facials to massages to beauty treatments such as pedicures and manicures. Then, why not continue your peaceful day by visiting one of London's famous tea rooms, such as the Tea House in Covent Garden, where you can warm up with a cup of traditional English black tea or take in some delicious anti-oxidants with their range of green teas.

To experience the best of London's urban eateries, check out celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal's London restaurant 'Dinner.' Blumenthal is known for his work in the field of molecular gastronomy and he likes to incorporate all of the senses into his dining experience. Alternatively, the Brick Lane neighbourhood located in London's Tower Hamlets borough is known to have some of the best curry houses in the city.

Before you plan your trip to the capital, make sure to book a city centre hotel in London as far in advance as possible to ensure you get your first choice. Remember to consider location when you're booking accommodation though - London is far bigger than many people imagine, and it'd be a shame to wind up far away from its many attractions.
