Hotels in United Kingdom

Comprised of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, the United Kingdom is linked by a shared culture, language and history. The UK’s capital is London, a vibrant global city that’s one of the world’s leading financial centres, home to global banks such as HSBC and the Royal Bank of Scotland. In London and the rest of the UK, the country’s economy is tourist-led, with London bringing in more international visitors than any other city in the world – many of them drawn to the city’s myriad iconic sights and attractions such as London Bridge, Buckingham Palace and the Tate Modern.

Travelling throughout the United Kingdom is easy, with an extensive rail, plane and ferry network linking the four countries. In England, there’s no shortage of iconic places to see, from Stratford Upon Avon, the birthplace of English playwright and poet William Shakespeare, to Liverpool, birthplace of The Beatles, the biggest-selling and most influential pop band of all time. Musically, the UK boasts a rich alumni including The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and Queen, but visit today and you’ll find everything from underground dance venues to major concerts at iconic venues such as the Hammersmith Apollo and Glasgow’s SSE Hydro.

Inspired by the country’s climate and landscape, as well as its multicultural population, the UK’s cuisine is wonderfully diverse. Visit Ireland for rich stews, soda bread and their world-famous potatoes; head to Scotland and you’ll get fresh lobster and langoustines, as well as its famous haggis. England is known for fish and chips and sticky toffee pudding, while Wales serves up Welsh rarebit, laverbread and tender lamb on the menu. No matter where you are in the UK, head to any pub on a Sunday and you’ll be hard-pressed to avoid the country’s world-renowned Sunday roast, best enjoyed with a pint of local ale.

Visit the UK and enjoy its quaint villages, charming culture and world-renowned sights. If you’re looking for the best hotels in the UK or are planning a UK trip, Jurys Inn and Leonardo Hotels UK offer the perfect base from which to discover this fascinating country.
