As the nights draw in and mercury drops London turns its attention to one of the year’s biggest spectacles, Bonfire Night. A bizarre celebration in some respects, celebrating the failed attempt by Guy Fawkes and his posse at blowing up the Houses of Parliament but a beautiful one none the less. Whichever Doyle Collection hotel you’re staying at be sure to get the best viewing point as the sky turns technicolour

If you’re staying at The Bloomsbury…

A gentle stroll across Bloomsbury’s iconic squares will lead you to Coram’s Fields, where a family-friendly fireworks display kicks off at 5.15pm. The event is free and there will be fairground rides and street food stalls, all raising money for the Coram’s Fields charity.

Head back to the hotel to warm up on Dalloway Terrace with a hot whiskey flavoured with honey, nutmeg and sugar, or a hot chocolate laced with bourbon and topped with cream or hold the bourbon for something more PG friendly.

Cross the river to join the party at Battersea Park

If you’re staying at The Kensington…

Cross over the river to one of London’s most popular fireworks parties at Battersea Park. Hosted by Virgin Radio UK’s presenter Christian Williams, the park’s celebrations include great music and food options. Booking tickets is essential. The fireworks begin at 8pm but you can enter the park from 6pm.

If hotdogs aren’t your thing then save yourself for The Kensington’s restaurant Town House and its warming Autumnal menu.
