Design weekend in London

Staying at the Sanctum Soho Hotel is a perfect if you are in London for a design weekend. http://www.sanctumsoho.com/ The location is great close to the restaurants and shopping on Regent Street and Soho.
The hotel was awarded the London Lifestyle Award in 2010. And it is easy to understand, when you see the fab interior which is crowned by a cool bar on the roof with a pool.
And their moijitos are great.

We spent one morning in the National Gallery museum. It is really nice to see the original beautiful paintings of Monet, Rembrand, Rubens and Van Gogh. A the view from the museum is lovely. Bring your camera!
A nice place to shop is the National Gallery Shop. Visit it in the museum on 30 Orange Street.

The Lumas photo gallery and shop exhibit stunning photos. I went there to get some nice inspiration before I took off for some shopping at Regent Street. http://www.lumas.com/

We had a lovely lunch a the exclusive Japanese resturant Matsuri on 15 Bury Street. The fire ball dessert is something special. http://www.matsuri-restaurant.com/

I just love shopping a Selfridges on 400, Oxford Street. Here you find design hand bags, watches, clothes and so much more. The shop Liberty is another favorite. It is located on Regent Street and houses loads of beautiful designer clothes, note books, hand bags, scarfs and so much more.

A romantic dinner at Angleas resturant with great food and drinks is a nice way to end the day. Or pop in to the Dehesa Charcturerie and Tapas Bar is also a nice place for some drinks and food. It is close to the hotel at 25 Ganton Street. http://www.dehesa.co.uk/
