London is the perfect place to spend quality time with your father and make him feel appreciated. Whether Dad enjoys some competition on the court, a luxury overnight stay, or an elegant meal in good company, Blue Orchid Hospitality offers plenty of ways to treat him this year — wherever in London you choose to base yourselves.
Here are two days out, one in Tower Hill and one in Westminster - pick whichever suits Dad best, or use them as inspiration for a London break of your own design.
A day built around history, competition, and a proper sense of occasion — based at Tower Suites by Blue Orchid Hospitality.
A Slow Start
The day begins at Tower Suites. Drop luggage at reception, then head to Simply Fresh To Go (right there on-site) for coffee and a pastry to ease into the morning, before heading out to explore some of the Tower Hill sites. You can see some of the best attractions in just an hour, read the Blue Orchid Guide to the Tower Hill area to discover them all.
If Dad prefers rest over exercise, a slow morning at Adamo Spa is the perfect start. Facials, deep-tissue massages, full-body massages, and more. Dad can choose a treatment tailored to his liking, and a morning at the spa gives him time to unwind in a way he might not otherwise get.
Lunch, Then a Match
When everyone's ready for something more, Cento Alla Torre, the Italian restaurant at Tower Suites, serves authentic, homemade pasta and pizza with views over the Tower of London. A relaxed lunch before the afternoon's activity.
From there, it's a short walk to Padel at Tower Hill Terrace, part of London Sports Festival, for some friendly family competition. No experience needed and all skill levels are welcome. Book a spot in advance.
Check-In With a View
Return to Tower Suites to check in properly, and if you're looking to surprise Dad, the Signature Suite with Kitchen, Tower Bridge View is the one to book. Tower Bridge directly in the frame, the Tower of London just outside the window. Take a moment to settle in and enjoy the view before heading back out.
An Afternoon at the Tower
Just a short walk away, the Tower of London is well worth the visit if Dad has any interest in history - the Crown Jewels, nearly a thousand years of stories, and some of the most significant figures in British history all in one place. Explore Blue Orchid’s Royal Time at the Tower package.
Evening at Cento Alla Torre
Round off the day back at Cento Alla Torre for dinner, or for something more relaxed, Sapphire Bar is the perfect spot for an evening drink with views to match the conversation.

A calmer, more leisurely day based at The Wellington by Blue Orchid Hospitality, with private gardens, royal parks, and a memorable dinner to finish.
A Gentle Morning
Start the day with breakfast at The Wellington before stepping out into Westminster. With private gardens of its own, The Wellington is a peaceful base for a day that doesn't need to be rushed.
An Afternoon in the Parks
Take a stroll through St James's Park, one of London's prettiest green spaces, with views toward Buckingham Palace and plenty of spots to pause. If Dad enjoys a bit of history, the Changing of the Guard is worth timing a visit around, and the Churchill War Rooms are close by for anyone with an interest in wartime history.
