Albermarle Street, London, W1S 4BP

For starters, just staying at Brown’s will be a big lesson in world history for your little ones. This is where Queen Victoria came to have her afternoon teas, where President Roosevelt stayed on his honeymoon and where Napoleon III stayed after he fled France. Alexander Graham Bell (who invented the telephone, for those whose general knowledge is a little rusty) made the first ever telephone call from Brown’s. Rudyard Kipling wrote The Jungle Book during his stay at this hotel. Crime writer Agatha Christie visited the hotel many times and supposedly based a book on it too. If that isn’t enough, Brown’s which opened in 1857 is London’s first hotel. And if you thought that just its history was enough, read on to see what this iconic hotel does for all its guests – the tiniest ones included!
