Shangri-La Hotel at the Shard
London

A combination of staggering views, great bars and restaurants, and the “wow” factor of staying in Western Europe’s tallest skyscraper designed by acclaimed architect Renzo Piano, make the Shangri-La at the Shard one of Ampersand’s top recommended hotels in London. Located right next to London Bridge and the artisanal food hub of Borough Market, it is a short stroll from London’s South Bank and its theatres, museums and vibrant eateries along the River Thames. The Shangri-La at the Shard has 202 guestrooms and suites spread from the 35th to the 51st floor. Rooms are priced by aspect; the cheapest are the southerly views and the most expensive are the triple-aspect, 180-degree views of all the great landmarks – definitely worth the extra. The coffee shop, Lang, is on the ground floor, the restaurant, Ting, is on the 35th floor and the bar, Gong, is on the 52nd floor and is the highest bar in Europe.

Client Testimonials

We really enjoyed the trip and were happy that we squeezed so much into a few short days. The Burmese people were lovely and the sites were fantastic. We really enjoyed the balloon ride and would highly suggest it to others in the future. The trip went super smoothly and a good time plus learning happened for all. Yangon was nice as the Strand was quite amazing and we of course loved the giant gold temple. Many thanks for all of your help and look forward to future travel with you.

So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!

I barely know where to begin... though a sincere 'thank you' would be the best. You have organised this trip perfectly. May was an inspiring and delightful companion in Myanmar – thoroughly professional and friendly at the same time. My accommodation throughout has been superb, especially The Governor's Residence and The Mandarin Oriental. The view from the cottage at Inle Lake was beautiful and I loved every moment of being there. And here I am now on the last leg of this extended holiday at my favourite place. I could stay here for ever, the peace, silence and surroundings all amazing, plus the people and the whole aura of Vana. Thank you for much, and I look forward to speaking to you on my return.
