In recent weeks the temperature has started to drop giving us all a glimpse that winter is on the way. London is already starting to transform into a winter wonderland. Twinkly lights line the streets, markets are selling steaming hot chocolates and we’ve even seen a flurry of snow! Nestled in the heart of Kensington, The Bentley Hotel offers the perfect retreat for your winter getaway, combining luxury with unbeatable proximity to London’s most iconic winter experiences.
Winter in London has something to offer for everybody, from quieter days to busy days around the Christmas period and New Year. With the addition of more holiday time, it makes an ideal time to book your winter London trip.
There’s plenty to do across the capital, like the joys of gliding across an outdoor ice rink! London offers many outdoor skating options like:
- Riverside skating at Battersea Power Station
- Neoclassical skating vibes at Somerset House Ice Rink
- Views of London’s top skyscrapers at Ice Rink Canary Wharf
- Tudor Palace scenery at Hampton Court Palace rink
The largest outdoor ice skating rink in the UK and London is right next to The Bentley Hotel in Hyde Park. Offering skating to the delightful tunes of live music from the bandstand. Hyde Parks Winter Wonderland is open from 21 Nov 2024 – 5 Jan 2025, boasting London’s top winter attraction with thrill-seeking rides, games, food & drink, shows and live performances whilst soaking up the natural beauty of one of London’s greatest green spaces – Hyde Park.
If you prefer something quieter, enjoy crisp walks in any of the Royal Parks such as Regent’s Park, Green Park and Kensington Gardens, browse the boutique shops in South Kensington, take a trip to a classic London department store like Harrods or Fortnum & Mason, warm up to finish with a hot drink at a local café or our all-day dining option – Le Peridot.
London’s vibrant cultural scene also thrives in winter, with exhibitions, theatre performances, and live music waiting to fill your evenings. The Royal Albert Hall is just around the corner from the Bentley and bursting with wintertime entertainment. New events plus classic events are available, like The Nutcracker performing from the 29th of December followed by Cirque du Soleil 2025 – Corteo playing from the 9th of January.
