A curated list of trips for families of 5
Beautiful hotels.
Everyone fits.
Connecting rooms, family suites, and real floor plans — in the cities families love most.
Explore the ListThe detail no one puts in the brochure
A beautiful view is easy. A room that fits everyone is not.
Beautiful, well located, and built for your family of 5+.
Every hotel on the list is measured against the same quiet question: where does the fifth person actually sleep? Not a cot wedged by the bathroom door — a real bed, in a room you'd be glad to wake up in. Connecting rooms, family suites and true five-sleeper layouts, floor plan by floor plan.

Travel planning
When you value the research, but your time is better spent elsewhere.
I plan a small number of trips for families of 5 each season — the list applied to your own dates, your own kids and your own tolerance for early flights. Hotels first, then the shape of the days around them.
It's consultative rather than concierge — and where a hotel is a preferred partner, the same room comes with daily breakfast, a hotel or food and beverage credit, and a category upgrade when it's available.

Five cities, so far.
Each city visited, measured and argued over — with the family-of-five rooms noted hotel by hotel. Added slowly, and only when a hotel earns its place.

The suite that changed my mind about connecting rooms
For years I booked two rooms and accepted the hallway shuffle. Then a small hotel in Marylebone showed me a floor plan that quietly solves it — one door, two rooms, and nobody sleeping beside a bathroom.

A daybed worth planning around
The room is small on paper. In practice, the window alcove does the work of an entire extra bedroom.

The honest connecting room
Most hotels call anything with a shared wall a family suite. This one actually opens.
