Hyde park is one of Central London's largest parks. One of the Royal Parks, it's 350 acres straddle each side of the Serpentine, a 28 acre lake. Hyde Park is also contiguous with the 275 acre Kensington Gardens resulting in a combined total of 625 beautiful acres. It was the home of the famous Great Exhibition of 1851, the first in a series of World's Fairs.

Some of the many attractions in the park include Hyde Park Corner with its large stone arch gateway, a rose garden, a wildlife meadow, the Serpentine and Long Water Lakes, the Serpentine Bridge, children's playgrounds, tennis courts, several memorials and memorial gardens, and the famous Speaker's Corner.

Hyde Park Reviews

Rated 4.7 out of 5 Star Rating

4 Star Rating A beautiful and wonderful park, perfect for walking. The restaurants scattered around the lake are ideal for a great breakfast. It would be nice if there were shuttle vehicles or sports carts to move around the park due to its vast size—especially for the elderly and families.

5 Star Rating A good place for walking, jogging and cycling. About 142 hectares, Created in 1536 by King Henry VIII as a hunting ground. Opened to the public in 1637 by Charles I. In my vacation of London, rented a flat nearby Hude Park, it was a happiness to see that park and walking inside it everyday. Who loves parks, this is the place London.

4 Star Rating Hyde Park is a beautiful and relaxing place to spend time. It’s big and full of trees, flowers, and open space. You can walk, ride a bike, or just sit and enjoy the view. The lake is lovely, and there are ducks and swans to watch. It’s also a great spot for a picnic or just a quiet break from the busy city. A must-visit if you're in London.

5 Star Rating Beautiful park, full of wildlife and stunning plants and of course a gorgeous lake. There are bars and coffee stands situated all throughout the park so you can always find somewhere to grab an ice cream, coffee, or cocktail. The park also has shops and a pedalo area where you can hire pedalos. Gorgeous park!

5 Star Rating It’s a vast park! The paths were wide and well-maintained, and I really enjoyed walking while feeling the refreshing breeze. There were lots of people out for a walk, but it didn’t feel crowded at all. My children aren’t so into playground equipment – they prefer running around on the grass and exploring, so they absolutely loved this park.
