London’s Most Beautiful Christmas Trees

Indeed, 1 Month until Christmas Eve!

London is all dressed with colourful and fairy lights. You can smell cinnamon and mulled wine at every street’s corner. But the most beautiful Christmas trees are well hidden in the Capital’s luxurious hotels. So here is where to find London’s prettiest Christmas trees.

The Claridge’s – Maybourne Group.

Capturing the glamour, romance and timeless traditions of Christmas. Above all, their 10th-anniversary tree is the work of the legendary designer Christian Louboutin. This immersive installation invites guests on a journey, transforming the lobby into a frosted forest. At its heart is a traditional tree in gold and red, dressed with fairy lights and gingerbread stilettos – and topped with a gold-leaf crown.

The Lanesborough

Celebrating the excellence of British luxury and craftsmanship of both The Lanesborough and Ralph & Russo. Indeed, both brands have united to bring the glamour and personal touch of a true couture Christmas to every guest this festive season. To honour the hotel’s most loved resident and her first Christmas at The Lanesborough, Ralph & Russo hand-crafted a bespoke collar bearing the crown sigil and house logo of both brands.

The Berkeley – Maybourne Group

The Berkeley plays it differently and prefers to sprinkle its guests with a rain of star-like lights to enhance London’s fairy spirit for Christmas.

The Connaught – Maybourne Group 

Giddy and festive feeling at the Connaught Hotel with a traditionally decorated lobby to feel cosy and at home in a British atmosphere.

Hotel Café Royal

Their traditional but marvellous Christmas tree is decorated with ornaments carrying a message of joy, luck and goodwill – nice wishes to begin a new decade. 

Corinthia Hotel 

Huge tree along with Santa’s Sleigh in the Lavish Hotel Lobby to welcome guests with fruity and nutty ornaments. It begins to look a lot like Christmas at Corinthia…
