Sanctuary House Hotel

This is a sightseer's dream -- a classic neighborhood hotel, complete with its own traditional pub, just yards from Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, and the London Eye. Accommodations have a rustic feel, but they also have first-rate beds. Downstairs, the in-house pub/restaurant offers old-style British food that has ignored changing culinary fashions. "We like tradition," one of the perky staff members told us. "Why must everything be trendy?" Actually, the food is excellent if you appreciate the roast beef, Welsh lamb, and Dover sole that pleased the palates of Churchill and his contemporaries. Naturally, there's always plenty of brew on tap.
