London Hotels Celebrating the Wimbledon Championships

By Lauren Jade Hill

As the Wimbledon Championships come around for another dramatic tournament, London’s grandest hotels are pushing out all the stops in honor of the occasion.

The Milestone Hotel

The quintessentially British hotel, The Milestone by Red Carnation, is marking the arrival of the Grand Slam tennis tournament by hosting the Wimbledon Experience. This luxurious two-night stay includes accommodation in a Studio or Suite, Lanson Champagne (the championships’ official sponsor) sabrage, private transfers to and from Wimbledon, and Center Court Debenture tickets. You’ll also have exclusive access to the Center Court Debenture Lounge, along with its restaurants and bars, and a three-course fine dining experience back at the hotel’s restaurant Cheneston’s with a bottle of Bouchard Finlayson wine. A Wimbledon themed turn-down gift and treats complete the experience.
