When the shops themselves are a tourist attraction you know you’re somewhere special. And with the famous Knightsbridge shops of Harrods and Harvey Nichols this is certainly true.

It has to be Harrods

Harrods is London’s most famous department store. Lose yourself in seven floors of designer fashion, fine jewellery, cosmetics and exotic wares. Buy something large or small so you can walk out with the iconic Harrods bag. Get your appetite going with a visit to the magnificent food hall, full of wonderful aromas. Or visit the store’s very own statue of Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed.

Harvey Nichols shopping – not just for the well heeled.

After shopping at Harrods, you can just pop down the road to Harvey Nichols. This flagship branch of the luxury department store was originally opened as a linen shop in 1813. Spread over eight floors you’ll find the height of luxury in food, fashion and beauty. When you’re exhausted by shopping at Harvey Nichols, why not refresh yourself at the restaurant, bar or Café?

Famous names on a famous street

For the fashion aficionados, Sloane Street is the place to see – and be seen. You’ll find an incredible range of exclusive brands there, including Prada, Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Nicole Farhi and Alberta Ferretti.
