Pick up some bargains, enjoy winter activities and make the most of London's free attractions in January. (book your London accommodation here)
January is the quietest time of the year to visit London (and possibly, the cheapest).
The famous January sales are on.
Top January events include the New Year’s Day Parade and activities for Burns Night.
Some Christmas activities continue including, ice skating rinks, Christmas in Leicester Square, Hogwarts in the Snow and festive shows.
January is one of the best months to visit on a budget. The January sales are on, so you can shop at some of London's top shopping destinations for less. Plus, many hotels offer reductions at this time of year.
London's attractions are quieter than usual this month, so it's a great time to enjoy a stroll around a quiet museum and avoid queues at popular attractions. And, don't forget, many of London's attractions are free!
Make sure to wrap up warm when out exploring London in winter. Then, take refuge from the cold in one of London's cosy pubs, or enjoy a hot drink with a view on a heated rooftop terrace transformed for winter.

Last weekend I had a lovely time in London. My new favourite place is the Wellcome Collection - seen here the coffee, a delicious halloumi salad in the 2nd floor restaurant and a few pictures of the amazing Reading Room. The decor and contents and atmosphere were inspiring and relaxing at the same time, especially on a rainy Saturday afternoon, it’s such a great place to escape from the drizzle and cold - look it up, on Euston Road near the end of Great Portland Street. The other pictures show highlights of Lumiere London, and some massive sculptures at St Pancras Church, a quick shot of London landmarks from the Southbank; last but not least my lovely knitted cup holder on a take away coffee.
