London is the place to be this festive season as the city fills with Christmas lights, markets appear and the pantomime season begins. Be a part of it with this offer from the 4-star Corus Hotel overlooking Hyde Park. Rooms are now $158 (£99) per night -- up to 45% off regular rates -- and include:

• Full English breakfast for two (worth $27/£16.95 per person)
• Glass of wine on arrival
• Free Wi-Fi
• Complimentary upgrade to an Executive Room (worth $80/£50, subject to availability on arrival)

Guests will also get an extra 20% discount at Olio's Bar & Brasserie. This offer is valid on Friday-Monday stays through February, and seven days a week Dec. 10 - Jan. 13.

The Corus Hotel is set within a 200-year-old Grade II-listed Georgian building, a short distance from Oxford Street, Knightsbridge, the Royal Albert Hall and the West End. Until Jan. 6, explore Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, which features a Christmas market, the Ice Age 4 Ice Rink, ice sculptures and circus acts (fees apply). 

We have stayed at this hotel -- the location is hard to beat and makes it perfect for strolling around Hyde Park on a crisp winter's morning. We recommend dinner at the on-site Bel Canto Restaurant, which hosts opera evenings from Tuesday-Saturday.

Not available on: Nov. 30; Dec. 1, 6-8, 15, 31; Feb. 5-7, 15-20
