Fantastic by day and even better by night, London is the greatest city for entertainment. With unrivalled day and nightlife choice for a girls only weekend in this vibrant city that never sleeps. Super trendy cocktail and wine bars, landmarks such as the London Eye and numerous shops and boutiques compile the ideal fun weekend.

Fun in London:


Ever feel all dressed up with nowhere to go? This city provides an energetic array of things to do and places to go. We all know there’s nothing better than a night out with the girls, other than maybe a whole weekend away with the girls so plan an entire weekend of activities, ensuring you don’t miss out on the dazzling possibilities London has to offer.

For a Sex and the City style glamorous experience you will need a few cocktails and some excellent pampering. Hotels like the Metropolitan offer Thai massages and Reiki (Japanese stress reduction). Once you have de-stressed and relaxed you could enjoy some Japanese cuisine at Nobu restaurant followed by a few drinks at the Met Bar-all without leaving the building.

Pick up some vintage or designer jewellery on nearby Westbourne Grove and at Portobello Market, then it's time to cruise around town for shoes! Christian Louboutin, Gina and Manolo Blahnik all have stores in London. If you have the energy and your feet aren't aching too much, round the afternoon off with some dancing lessons at Pineapple Dance Studios in Covent Garden.

Get the London look:

There’s one place in London where you can get pretty much anything under one. Selfridges is a shrine to retail therapy, and has everything a girl could possibly want. From fabulous handbags to an immense beauty hall, where you can get all the beauty products you could need to make your night special and literally get the London look.

As well as the gorgeous designer clothes elegantly enthralling around you, there lots of other tempting treats, in the form of food. The restaurants in Selfridges comprise of Frankie’s Italian Bar and Grill, the Gallery Restaurant and the Obika Mozzarella Bar, where you will find a wide selection of culinary delights to cater for even the pickiest of eaters.

If you’re looking to cleanse your palette, visit Gordon’s Bar and restaurant, located in the middle of the menswear section. The Moet Bar offers cocktails and is popular with visitors who love champagne as much as shopping. And finally the Wonder Bar, the UK’s first new generation bar, which exploits the chicest destination where you can enjoy the world’s finest vintages.

Getting around London couldn’t be any easier. There is the choice of the tube network, bus service and limitless number of London cabs, which means that getting around, is simple. There are also many hot spots where several visitor attractions can be found grouped together so you don’t have to travel far to view all the spectacular delights that this flourishing city has to offer.
