Just minutes away from the Royal parklands of Green Park and Buckingham Palace, Hotel Café Royal is the perfect location from which to explore the cultural highlights of London in this historic summer season of the King’s Coronation.
The Crown Jewels Experience – The Tower by Night
This ultimate experience of luxury and exclusivity begins with a stay in the opulent two-bedroom Royal Suite at Hotel Café Royal. As dusk descends, the chauffeur driven limousine arrives on Regent Street to whisk the guests away for an exclusive after-hours visit to the Tower of London. A personal tour of the grounds led by one of the King’s Beefeaters, guards of the Tower, is followed by a Champagne reception and private viewing of the breathtaking Crown Jewels and Royal Collection at the Jewel House.
Treasures on display at the jewel house include the largest diamond in the world, the 17th century solid gold St Edward’s Crown and Sovereign’s Orb, used during coronations, and the 20th century Imperial State Crown, which is set with 2,868 diamonds, 17 sapphires, 11 emeralds, 269 pearls and four rubies.
Following the private viewing, led by a royal expert, the guests will be chauffeur-driven back to Hotel Café Royal and to the regal comfort of the Royal Suite. Breakfast, fit for a King, will be served by a personal butler, the next morning.
