The Festive Season
A Festive Season Beyond Imagination
This Christmas, Hotel Café Royal becomes Santa’s very own London workshop — where elves pour Laurent-Perrier, letters take flight to the North Pole, and families can steal a private audience with the man himself. Follow the signs from Regent Street into a world of festive wonder, then let the magic spread through every corner of the hotel with Champagne, Afternoon Tea and seasonal indulgence at every turn.
Join us Christmas Eve through Boxing Day, or ring in 2027 with a New Year’s Eve to remember in the heart of London.
Christmas at Its Most Enchanting
With our halls decked for the season, settle in for two nights of pure enchantment — welcome treats, breakfast, and a sumptuous four-course lunch or dinner at the Café Royal Grill. Rediscover Christmas like the ones you used to know, complete with stockings, stories, and a visit from Santa himself.
A Sparkling New Year
Give 2026 the glamorous send-off it deserves. Celebrate in the heart of London with a bottle of Laurent-Perrier on arrival, a four-course dinner beneath the golden glow of the Café Royal Grill, and live music carrying you towards midnight — before waking to a sumptuous breakfast for two.
