With the school half term holidays not far away you might be looking for ideas on what to do. What better way to spend a couple of days in London, stay a night in a London hotel and take in a great West End show.

Disney’s marvellous musical is about the young Prince Simba, his father King Mufasa and evil Uncle Scar. Fantastic choreography and an award-winning score continue to ensure that The Lion King is one of London’s top shows.

The Lion King is being staged at the Lyceum Theatre, Wellington Street, London

Recreated for the stage, the story of Simba, The Lion King, looks set to entertain children and adults for generations to come.

We have lots of London hotel combinations available and there are lots of great shows worth seeing. How about the fabulous “Phantom of the Opera” or “We Will Rock You”.
