London in winter is pure magic. The city glows under twinkling lights, the air carries the scent of roasted chestnuts, and every corner feels alive with festive spirit. From Thanksgiving dinners to Christmas markets and world-famous attractions like Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park (on our doorstep), there’s no better place to celebrate the season — and no better way to experience it than from the comfort of your own luxury aparthotel in Knightsbridge or Kensington.
At Buckingham & Lloyds, our London apartments offer the best of both worlds: the warmth and privacy of a home, paired with five-star hotel-style service — including fridge fills, private chefs, housekeeping, and in-apartment wellness experiences. Whether you’re visiting for a family holiday, a shopping weekend, or a romantic festive escape, you’ll find yourself perfectly placed to explore London’s most magical neighbourhoods; our Knightsbridge aparthotel is 300m from Harrods, and our Kensington aparthotel directly opposite Hyde Park and Winter Wonderland.
Thanksgiving in London: Where to Celebrate
While Thanksgiving may be an American tradition, London in November embraces it beautifully and we always look forward to hosting our American guests, ensuring we make their London stay feel like home. Several top restaurants across Knightsbridge and Kensington host special Thanksgiving menus — think roast turkey, pumpkin pie, and fine wines in elegant surroundings. For a truly memorable meal, book a table at CUT at 45 Park Lane, The Colony Grill Room, or The Ivy Kensington Brasserie, all within easy reach of our luxury serviced apartments in London.
Prefer to stay in? Our private chef services can create a bespoke Thanksgiving dinner right in your apartment — complete with seasonal British ingredients and your favourite festive flavours that make it taste like home. It’s the ideal way to enjoy a relaxed evening with family and friends, without ever leaving your Buckingham & Lloyds apartment near Hyde Park.
London’s Christmas Markets & Festive Experiences
As the season changes, London at Christmas transforms into a winter wonderland of lights, extravagant decorations, and festivities. Stroll through Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland, just moments from our apartments in Kensington, to enjoy dazzling light displays, Christmas markets, and ice skating beneath the stars.
Nearby, you’ll find the Southbank Centre Winter Market, Covent Garden Christmas Markets Village, and the Chelsea Physic Garden Christmas Fair — each offering artisan gifts, seasonal food, and that unmistakable holiday charm. These are some of the most festive things to do in London, perfect for couples, families, or solo travellers soaking up the seasonal spirit and exploring the best Christmas Markets in London.
For a touch of tradition, attend a carol service at St. Paul’s Cathedral or Royal Albert Hall, or catch a West End Christmas show — from The Nutcracker to A Christmas Carol.
From Harrods to Bicester Village
A London Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a little festive shopping — and Buckingham & Lloyds places you just moments from Harrods, the heart of iconic luxury shopping in Knightsbridge.
Step into glittering halls filled with designer gifts, exclusive beauty collections, and seasonal treasures, or explore the charming boutiques and flagship stores that line Sloane Street for a more personalised experience.
For those seeking designer discounts and unique finds, Bicester Village is an unmissable day trip, just a short commute outside of the city. Our concierge team can arrange chauffeur transfers directly from your apartment, ensuring a comfortable and stress-free journey. Guests of Buckingham & Lloyds enjoy VIP access to the private apartment, refreshments, exclusive offers in select boutiques, private shopping experiences, personal styling and more.
Where to Stay: A Home for the Holidays
