About The Courts at Hyde Park
The Courts at Hyde Park is The Royal Parks’ central London padel - one outdoor floodlit panoramic court on Hyde Park’s south side, run by Park Sports. One of the most centrally located outdoor padel courts in the capital.
Sister Royal Parks padel at The Regent’s Park (two courts at York Bridge).
The courts
One outdoor panoramic court on synthetic grass on Hyde Park’s south side. Floodlit through evening play. Open-top, weather-dependent. Opened 2024.
Booking and access
Pay-and-play £35 to £40 an hour (off-peak £35 / £8.75 per player) through the Royal Parks booking page. Booking opens daily at 7am for slots up to seven days ahead. Closest stations: Hyde Park Corner (Piccadilly) and Knightsbridge (Piccadilly), both around a 5-minute walk.
Programme and social
Park Sports runs Hyde Park as a casual single-court site without scheduled coaching or league play. Group bookings handled directly through the Park Sports booking page. Beginners use the Royal Parks “Padel for All” intro slots when published.
Best for
Knightsbridge, Mayfair and central-London visitors who want a single-court hit inside Hyde Park, visitors combining padel with a Park walk, and locals willing to pay the central-zone location premium. Less suited to regular play given the single-court availability constraint.
