There is a long-standing tradition in the U.
K.
that celebrities are to be given the same courtesies the rest of us enjoy in public, making them more comfortable being out and about.
Sighting them is therefore not uncommon.
We've pulled together a list of world class accommodations in the U.
K.
that are favourites among A-list celebrities.
Let's start in London, a frequent stop for many of the world's most recognizable faces.
Harry Potter fans looking to rub shoulders with J K Rowling might try Hazlitt's 1718, a sumptuous boutique hotel in SoHo Square, near all the best West End theatres.
Intimate elegance is on rich display in each of the 23 bedrooms boasting 18th century furnishing and artwork.
The Four Seasons has a reputation for a place where business deals get done, with Mick Jagger, Hugh Grant, and Peaches Geldoff among those reportedly seen dining with entertainment executives.
This 5-Star offering boasts understated luxury that doesn't have to shout to be heard.
The Baglioni in the heart of Kensington overlooks Kensington Gardens and offers wonderful views of the palace, and of celebrities like Tara Reid, who enjoy the luxury stay whilst in London, perhaps to shop at Harrod's around the corner.
The hotel boasts ornate accoutrements of class in every detail like hand-made copper basins from Morocco in each room.
It's not just Paris who regularly makes the rounds at the London Hilton on Park Lane.
Naomi Campbell and Beck were recent check-ins, too.
Perhaps they took in the 360 degree panoramas of the city during an exquisite meal at Galvin at Windows on the 28th floor.
In London, the hands down darling amongst all the hotels for celebs is the Dorchester.
A sampling of its recent roster of the renowned includes Sir Elton, Jennifer Lopez, Ozzy and Sharon, Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon.
They enjoy their stays in the opulent, spacious rooms and suites as much as Dietrich and Bob Hope did on their visits of yesteryear.
Outside of London, you might consider stopping at the Grand Metropole Hotel, Blackpool, where the seaside luxury is a favourite of sportsmen like Beckham and his famous bride.
Or, if heading north, give the Clarence Hotel in Dublin a try.
Lavish is the word, from top to bottom.
You might be invited to the bar for a drink by U2 front man Bono, who considers the Clarence the choicest of hotels - and why not? He owns the place!
