Between the elimination of COVID travel restrictions and a close exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and British pound right now, many Americans are traveling to the United Kingdom in droves this year. London, especially, is a prime choice for travelers visiting for both business and pleasure as "bleisure" travel moves from pandemic trend to being incorporated into the new normal.
Located within The Shard, a now-iconic (and once divisive) skyscraper on south side of the river Thames and the tallest building in the United Kingdom at 309.6 meters (1,015.7 feet) high, the Shangri-La London has found itself at the crux of a number of pandemic travel trends, from staycations to digital nomads, and it is in a prime spot to serve both tourists and business travelers being near the financial center of London as well as some of the city's most famous sites, including the Tower of London, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Tate Modern, and Borough Market.
