The Clarendon Hotel Will Remain Open for Another Year

Planning ahead? Good. Because The Clarendon Hotel is getting ready for bookings into summer 2027

That means you can book your next Blackheath stay, book for London Marathon, plan a wedding, organise Christmas or a family celebration, arrange a private event, sort accommodation for guests, line up a trip to Greenwich, or finally get that O2 night in the diary without leaving the hotel part until the last minute.

In other words, we’re ready and taking bookings and very much getting on with what we do best: looking after people in the heart of Blackheath Village.

Stays, Weekends and Proper London Breathing Space

If you already know The Clarendon, you’ll know the appeal.

You get Blackheath Common on the doorstep, Greenwich just down the road, The O2 within easy reach and central London close enough when you want it. Then you get to come back to somewhere calmer at the end of the day.

It works for London weekends, family visits, business trips, concert stays, wedding guests and those “we really should go away for a night” plans that somehow never quite make it out of the group chat.

With the hotel remaining open for another year, whether you’re looking at Christmas plans, a London Marathon stay or already thinking ahead to a wedding in 2027, you can get your dates sorted.

Weddings at The Clarendon

If you’re planning a wedding in Blackheath, our wedding diary is open for dates in 2027.

The Clarendon works beautifully for weddings because everything sits in one place. Ceremony spaces, dining, evening celebrations, bars, gardens, bedrooms for guests and a team that knows how to keep the day moving without making it feel over managed.

You might be planning something small and intimate. You might want the full dinner, dancing and everyone staying over experience. Either way, we’ve got spaces that can flex around the kind of day you actually want.

And yes, having bedrooms upstairs makes life a lot easier for guests who want to celebrate properly without worrying about the last train, taxis or getting across London in wedding shoes.

Private Parties, Family Gatherings and Events

Some celebrations need more than a restaurant table and a few balloons.

Birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, christenings, private dinners, reunions, conferences, community events and celebrations of life all need the right space, the right food and a team that can handle the practical bits without turning the whole thing into a project for you.

That’s where The Clarendon comes in.

Our event spaces can work for smaller private gatherings or larger celebrations, with menus, drinks, room layouts and accommodation all handled under one roof. If guests are travelling in, they can stay. If people want to keep the evening going, they can. If you want someone else to take care of timings, tables, food and flow, that’s exactly what we’re here for.

For events and private celebrations, email [email protected] or call 020 8318 4321.

Dining, Afternoon Tea and Sunday Lunch

You don’t need a huge reason to come to The Clarendon.

Sometimes it’s Sunday lunch. Sometimes it’s Afternoon Tea. Sometimes it’s a drink in the Chart Bar after a walk across the Common. Sometimes it’s dinner because cooking has lost its appeal and washing up sounds even worse.

Our dining spaces remain open for hotel guests and local visitors, with the Meridian RestaurantChart BarAfternoon Tea and Sunday dining all part of life at The Clarendon.

So if you’re nearby, staying with us or bringing family to Blackheath, you can still make The Clarendon part of the plan.

Christmas at The Clarendon

Christmas at The Clarendon is always a busy one, and we know plenty of guests, local families and groups wait for the festive dates to be released.

Our much loved Christmas celebrations are being finalised, and the next festive calendar will be announced soon.

That will include details for seasonal dining, party nights, festive events and Christmas celebrations. So if you’re already thinking about the work Christmas party, a festive lunch, a family get together or Christmas dining without the kitchen stress, keep an eye out.

The dates are coming.

Why Book Direct?

Booking direct is still the best way to plan your stay with us.

You’re speaking to the team who actually know the hotel, the rooms, the area and the little details that can make a stay work better. Need rooms near each other? Bringing family? Planning around a wedding or event? Want to turn a night out into an overnight stay? Book direct and we can help you get it right from the start.

It also means you’ll be first to know about offers, events and seasonal dates as they go live.

The Clarendon is Open for Another Year

The Clarendon Hotel will remain open and trading for another year, with bookings available into 2027.

So if you’ve been meaning to plan a stay, sort a wedding date, organise a celebration, arrange rooms for guests, book accommodation for the London Marathon or get ahead of Christmas, this is your sign to get it in the diary.
