Where to Stay for André Rieu at the OVO Arena: Four Hotels for Your September 2026 Visit

When André Rieu brings his Johann Strauss Orchestra to the OVO Arena Wembley this September, the evening becomes far more than a concert. For many visitors, it becomes the perfect excuse for a London getaway — a night of waltzes, laughter and shared celebration, followed by the simple pleasure of stepping outside into a city that never quite stops sparkling. Choosing the right place to stay can shape the whole experience, turning a single evening into a memorable short break. Here are four hotels around Wembley Park that make getting to the arena effortless, so all that’s left to think about is the music.

1. Hilton London Wembley

Visit the Hilton Wembley Arena

Just a few minutes’ walk from the OVO Arena, the Hilton London Wembley offers the kind of polished comfort that suits a special night out. Guests consistently mention the warmth of the staff and the sense of occasion the hotel creates, which feels fitting for an evening built around celebration. Its Lakeside Way location places it directly within Wembley Park, meaning the walk to the arena takes only minutes — ideal for anyone who would rather spend the evening enjoying the atmosphere than navigating traffic. For those arriving by train, Wembley Park station is a short stroll away, with direct connections from central London on the Jubilee and Metropolitan lines.

2. Novotel London Wembley

Set on Olympic Way, right along the route that leads directly to the arena and stadium complex, the Novotel London Wembley is one of the most convenient choices for concertgoers. Many guests praise it specifically for events at the OVO Arena, noting how easy it is to combine a night at a show with a comfortable stay just steps away. The hotel sits close to Wembley Park underground station, making it equally practical whether you’re arriving from Heathrow, King’s Cross, or anywhere else in the capital. Its spacious rooms and relaxed restaurant make it a favourite for families and couples alike making a weekend of their visit.

3. Premier Inn London Wembley Stadium

For travelers who value reliability and value without compromising on location, Premier Inn London Wembley Stadium is a dependable choice. Positioned around a ten-minute walk from the arena, it offers the brand’s familiar comfort — including its well-loved beds — alongside a relaxed dining option for an easy pre-concert meal. Wembley Park station is close by, and the walk itself passes through the lively plaza atmosphere that builds before any big event, adding a little anticipation to the evening ahead.

4. ARK Wembley

Visit the ARK Wembley

For those who prefer a more contemporary, apartment-style stay, ARK Wembley is a stylish alternative just a short walk from Wembley Park station. Guests often highlight its modern interiors, spotless rooms and genuinely warm service — qualities that make it feel more like a home away from home than a standard hotel stay. It’s a particularly good option for anyone extending their visit beyond concert night, with the calm, well-connected setting making it easy to explore more of London the next day.

Getting to the OVO Arena

However you choose to stay, reaching the OVO Arena is refreshingly simple. All four hotels are within walking distance of Wembley Park underground station, served by the Jubilee and Metropolitan lines, putting central London within easy reach in around twenty minutes. From the station, the arena itself is just a short walk along Olympic Way — the same wide, pedestrian boulevard that leads to Wembley Stadium, often buzzing with fellow concertgoers making their way to the evening’s performance. For those driving, several of these hotels offer on-site parking, though many visitors find the train the more relaxed option, particularly with an evening of music (and perhaps a glass of something celebratory) ahead.

Make an Evening of It

Arriving an hour or so before the show gives you time to soak in the atmosphere around Wembley Park, where restaurants and cafés fill with visitors dressed for the occasion. It’s worth booking a table nearby in advance, particularly on performance nights, when the area comes alive with the same anticipation that will soon fill the arena itself.

Whichever hotel you choose, the short journey between your room and the OVO Arena means the evening can begin the moment you step outside — with the promise of Strauss waltzes, shared joy, and the kind of night that lingers long after the final encore.
