What It's Good For

In a word; money. London is seen as one of the leading lights of the financial world, with over 320,000 financial sector employees working in the City. Many law firms also have their offices here.

Main Attractions

One of the most instantly recognisable features of the London skyline is the dominating structure at 30 St. Mary Axe, more commonly known as 'The Gherkin'. The City is also home to the Barbican Centre, Museum of London and the bustling Smithfield meat market.

What It's Famous For

Skyscrapers. As well as 'The Gherkin', there are various other inventively designed buildings enjoying curious nicknames, among them 'The Walkie Talkie', 'The Helter Skelter' and 'The Cheese Grater'. The recent recession has also made the City the target of much public chagrin.

Fascinating Fact

The City is colloquially referred to as 'The Square Mile', a name derived from the area it supposedly covers. In fact, The City covers a little more than this, spanning 1.08 square miles.

More About City
The financial heart of London, the City carries great importance for such a relatively small area. Whilst the regeneration of Canary Wharf has rendered the City less important than it once was, it is still the centre of London's financial activity, and guests in the City hotels will note the constant rush of suited workers striding along the streets.

Known as the 'Square Mile', the City of London is home to the oldest local authority in the country. The controversial City of London Corporation operates alongside the 32 London boroughs in the second tier of London government, beneath the Greater London Authority.

The Corporation has been attacked by many MPs who see it is as something of an undemocratic old boys club, with Labour MP John McDonnell labelling it 'a rotten borough' in 2004. Of course, the current economic recession has also given the area a degree of notoriety.

That aside, the architecture is stunning and if you want a real flavour of frenetic city atmosphere, here is where to find it. The City hotels are also close to attractions such as St. Paul's Cathedral and the Bank of England.
