The ultimate guide for a day out in Soho

Typically, Soho is an area in London that people like to visit in the evening as more bars, shops and restaurants are open and the area is vibrantly lit up.

While you may want to visit when the sun sets, that’s not to say that there isn’t plenty to do in Soho during the day.

If you’d prefer to explore the city in the lighter hours, read on for our recommendations of great places to visit in Soho while staying at the Montcalm Hotel Marble Arch.

Visit the House of MinaLima

26 Greek St, Soho, London W1D 5DE

Are you and your family big fans of Harry Potter? If the answer is yes, you’re going to be in your element when you visit this quirky exhibition and shop that is entirely dedicated to the cult favourite. The ongoing exhibition that you’ll discover when entering this shop features stunning artwork from the film sets as well as copies of the Daily Prophet newspaper and Hogwarts textbooks. Fancy taking a souvenir home with you? Head downstairs, where you’ll be delighted to find all manner of memorabilia, perfect for remembering your epic stay at the Montcalm Hotel Marble Arch.

The Photographer’s Gallery

16-18 Ramillies St, Soho, London W1F 7LW

London is the perfect city to visit if you are a keen photographer because there are so many stunning sights that you can head to snap photos at. After strolling around the streets of Soho and photographing all of your favourite parts, stroll into The Photographer’s Gallery, which is the largest gallery in London that is dedicated solely to photography. Check out some truly inspiring exhibitions while enjoying a comfortable stay at one of our many luxury accommodation London options.

Go for a dip in a swimming pool

15 Marshall St, Soho, London W1F 7EL

Fancy burning off some of the calories you’ve consumed while tucking into all of the delicious food that the capital city has to offer? If so, head to the Marshall Street Leisure Centre. You’ll be amazed by the grandeur of this building, making it the perfect place to enjoy a few relaxing laps. Marbled-lined floors and barrel vaulted ceilings ensure that you’ll never want to leave this pool, but when you do be sure to head to one of the many surrounding cafes and rejuvenate with a coffee.

Hit some balls at Urban Golf

33 Great Pulteney St, Soho, London W1F 9NW

Allow your competitive side to come out and play and challenge your family or friends to a few rounds of golf – with a twist. Remember you’re in London, so the likelihood of finding a sprawling, green golf course is slim. Instead this place fuses all the fun of golf with technology, allowing you to play a virtually simulated game. Whether you want to hone your technique or challenge your friends, you’re sure to have a lot of fun at this popular Soho spot.
