Latest reviews | Events in Hyde Park | 10 Places to Stay

Hyde Park has long been at the very heart of London life. With 350 grassy acres (adjoining Kensington Gardens' 275 acres), it's an obvious destination for people wishing to enjoy the sunshine by stretching out on deckchairs, perhaps, or by strolling around the meadowland and the Serpentine Lake. Hyde Park has plenty for the visitor, with sporting activities that range from tennis and bowling to boating and horse-riding, sightseeing at the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain, opened by the Queen in 2004, and the chance to listen to members of the public airing their views on any subject at Speaker's Corner. There's no need to leave the park for meals: a selection of cafés and restaurants serve everything from snacks to three-course lunches, and al fresco diners may enjoy delightful views from the Dell and the Lido, both situated beside the lake. Henry VIII bought Hyde Park from the Westminster Abbey monks in 1536 and used it as a private hunting ground. A hundred years later, Charles 1 opened it to the public and, since then, while existing primarily as an area for relaxation, the park has been a natural venue for national celebrations, protests, rallies and rock concerts.
