From picnics in the park, to rooftop drinks and outdoor festivals, London truly comes alive in the summer. If you are planning to experience London in the sunshine, choosing the right accommodation for your summer stay is key to making the most of these seasonal highlights.
If you haven’t considered a London aparthotel for your summer stay, now is the time! With features like private gardens, balconies for enjoying warm evenings, fully-equipped kitchens for preparing picnics, and proximity to London’s top summer attractions, luxury aparthotels provide everything you need for an unforgettable summer visit.
Spacious Living with Summer-Friendly Features
Whether it’s a long or short stay, aparthotels offer summer-friendly spaces that traditional hotels cannot. Private balconies are perfect for a morning coffee at sunrise and secluded gardens are ideal for cocktails at sunset. Enjoy the buzz and bustle of London but return to your own secluded paradise to enjoy the balmy evenings.
Fully-Equipped Kitchens for Summer Picnics and Meals
Embrace picnic and alfresco culture with fully equipped kitchens. While London offers exceptional dining spots, for longer stays the cost and fatigue of dining out for every meal can quickly takeover. Wander London’s many food markets and find exceptional ingredients to make your own summer banquet.
For a quintessential summer experience, head to Borough Market, which offers an array of artisan breads, cheeses, and fresh produce – perfect for a picnic in one of London’s iconic parks like Hyde Park or Regent’s Park. With a kitchen at your disposal, you can create a personalised spread to enjoy outdoors or savour a relaxed meal indoors after a busy day exploring the city.
Proximity to London’s Summer Highlights
Located in prime areas of London, you will be close to the action in a luxury aparthotel. Green spaces, cultural events and lively festivals are just some of the sights and sounds you can enjoy in London during the summer months.
Some of London’s must-visit summer hotspots include:
- Hyde Park: Ideal for picnics, boating on the Serpentine, or attending open-air concerts.
- Southbank: A hub of activity in summer with riverside food stalls, outdoor performances, and pop-up bars.
- Rooftop Venues: Places like Skylight and The Rooftop St. James offer stunning views alongside refreshing drinks.
- Outdoor Cinema Screenings: Experience films under the stars at venues like Somerset House or Luna Cinema.
Explore with ease and return to a comfortable space to unwind after a day of summer adventures.
Flexibility for Families and Groups
If you’re travelling as a group or family, the stress of booking separate hotel rooms is costly and can take out the togetherness of travelling together. Aparthotels are the perfect solution, offering multiple bedrooms, living spaces and dining areas so everyone can stay together comfortably.
For families, the extra space is invaluable for storing summer essentials like picnic blankets, cool bags, and outdoor games. Meanwhile, groups of friends can enjoy the convenience of communal areas to plan their day’s activities or relax with drinks in the evening.
A Cost-Effective Summer Solution
Summer is a peak travel season in London, which can make finding affordable accommodation a challenge. Aparthotels offer better value for money vs traditional hotels and often offer discounts for extended stays. On top of this, the kitchens and relaxation spaces reduce the cost of dining out or having drinks with friends.
Perfect for Enjoying London’s Green Spaces
The park cultural of London truly comes alive in the summer. The abundant green spaces of London (and the convenient proximity of our aparthotels) allows you to wander, picnic and play to your hearts content.
Pack a picnic and head to Hampstead Heath for panoramic views of the skyline, or stroll through the flower-filled pathways of Kew Gardens. For something a little different, visit Greenwich Park, where you can take in the sights of the Thames or climb the hill for breathtaking views of the city.
Comfortable Stays During Warm Weather
The temperatures in London during summer can vary greatly, however they have been known to climb during heatwaves at peak summer. Aparthotels are often equipped with amenities such as blackout curtains, air conditioning and safety windows to keep you cool. Having your own kitchen and fridge also allows you to ensure you are always stocks up with cold snacks and drinks to refresh you throughout those hotter days.
An Excellent Base for Day Trips
Finding a great base location is key for a city break, and our aparthotels tick all the boxes. With convenient locations near transport hubs, you can easily venture out to popular destinations such as Brighton’s beaches, the historic city of Oxford, or the stunning countryside of the Cotswolds.
