With December heralding the festive season and many people making plans to enjoy Christmas with friends and family, it\u2019s a good idea to get to know what you can and can\u2019t do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is especially important in a large city like London, the UK capital, where many people will be enjoying the world-famous Christmas lights, stunning tourist attractions and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/offers\/\">2 night London hotel deals<\/a> <\/strong>for their city breaks and lockdown breakouts. London is currently being sanctioned as a tier 2 area under the new government guidelines, meaning that there are certain things you can and can\u2019t do as long as the restrictions are in place. Whilst we don\u2019t know quite yet what the tier system will look like in a few months time, there\u2019s still a lot of restrictions in place that may affect your travel to the UK capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does Tier 2 Entail?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst under lockdown, non-essential shops and businesses had to close their customer-facing doors, it\u2019s now the case that high street shops, restaurants, gyms, salons and personal care and non-essential shops can now reopen their doors. Whilst this might be the case, strict social distancing and capacity limits have been enforced. This is not just a rule for shops and businesses either, walking around London, the rule of six and social bubbles are expected from visitors and locals alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, many sports stadiums, event spaces and cinemas have been allowed to operate but often only at a 50 percent capacity, or at least with strict 2-metre distances between individual social bubbles. These venues must all close by 11 pm as well, whilst accommodation such as the Baker Street Hotel are tailoring their services to late-night check-ins and disrupted travel schedules, with flexible booking and late-night <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/our-services\/\">Baker Street luggage storage<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of this, households are still not allowed to mix inside under tier 2, meaning that you can meet one other household outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance-696x465.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Social-Distance-629x420.jpg 629w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Distancing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These rules mean that if you are visiting friends or family over the Christmas period, it\u2019s advised that you book your own accommodation instead of staying with them. Hotels such as the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/\">Baker Street Hotel London<\/a> <\/strong>provide COVID-friendly rooms for London visitors who might want to enjoy a day out with family or friends who live in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Bubbles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether travelling to London with family or friends or otherwise dining or meeting up with London locals who you\u2019ve come to visit, social bubbles and the rule of six are easy to stick to and make a whole world of difference when it comes to booking restaurants and booking theatre tickets. Make sure to organise your different groups of six in advance, and if your group is overcrowded, reschedule and make more plans. After all, what with Park Avenue Baker Street Hotel\u2019s great value <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkavenuebakerstreet.co.uk\/offers\/\">London weekend away deals<\/a>, <\/strong>you could have three whole days to fill with London\u2019s singular attractions and experiences, so why not visit them with individuals on your London catch up list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Museums and Galleries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from reduced capacity events, hotels and parks, many of London\u2019s museums and art galleries will be partially opening their doors to advanced booking visitors. Whilst some exhibitions may be closed, institutions such as the National Portrait Gallery will be opening their doors to tailored tours of their<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the UK\u2019s second lockdown having come to a close, many tourists and locals are opening their curtains to the potential of seeing more of the country than they might have done all year.
