Hotels for An Evening with Art Garfunkel

An evening of songbook standards, stories and that unmistakable voice, delivered in a solo or lightly accompanied setting rather than a full-band spectacle. Expect the hits that made his name alongside quieter, more personal material, with plenty of talk between songs about the life behind them. A Monday date lends itself to an early, unhurried start and a crowd that's come to listen rather than shout. This is the kind of night that rewards close attention over singalong energy.

An ornate Victorian rotunda in South Kensington, the Royal Albert Hall is one of the world's most famous concert halls, celebrated above all for the summer Proms. It sits amid the great museums, Kensington Gardens and the elegant streets of Knightsbridge, making the setting as memorable as the show.

South Kensington and High Street Kensington tube stations are a short walk, with excellent central links. Staying in the neighbourhood lets you pair a performance with the galleries and a leisurely evening stroll home.
