Summer showers are no match for the Thistle Hyde Park hotel picnic hamper. Each hamper includes an ‘umbrella hat’ to ensure that you are the envy of all other picnic goers when the unpredictable British summer weather strikes.

Waterproof and practical – everyone knows you need two hands to eat a picnic – the umbrella hat sits alongside a picnic rug, finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, cakes and Kettle crisps. For those who want to add a bit of sparkle to their picnic, a bottle of Champagne can also be arranged.

The Thistle Hyde Park hotel is located opposite London’s popular Hyde Park and is ideal for guests who want to escape the hustle and bustle of the capital. Picnic Hampers are available to order from the hotel concierge from £25 for two people.
