London has hundreds of hotels for all budgets. Many tourist hotels are located in the Bayswater area west of Oxford Street, the main shopping street in the city center. Bayswater is a convenient place to find your hotel Londres, as it is close to the center and has good transport links. It is also close to Hyde Park, Notting Hill and other tourist attractions. Fast airport trains connect Heathrow Airport to Paddington Station right in the middle of Bayswater.
Piccadilly Circus
Some hotels are located around Piccadilly Circus, one of London’s major tourist attractions. If you stay in this area, you will be within a walking distance from many theaters, cinemas, other entertainment venues, restaurants and bars. You can also walk from Piccadilly Circus to all the shops on Oxford Street and to many tourist destinations, such as Trafalgar Square, Soho and Leicester Square.
One disadvantage of staying in this area is that it is busy around the clock. The traffic is busy and loud even at night. However, if you enjoy being in the center of nightlife and entertainment, Piccadilly Circus is a great place to stay.
South Kensington
Another location with a choice of hotel Londres for all budgets is the area around South Kensington. This neighborhood is well connected to other parts of London by the London Underground (the Tube). It is also easy to get to from Heathrow Airport and underground trains from Heathrow Airport stop at South Kensington station. It also has good connections to Victoria Station, the main hub for fast trains to and from Gatwick Airport and for buses and coaches to mainland Europe.
South Kensington is also home to many tourist attractions, good restaurants and bars. Three important museums are located here: The Victoria & Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum.
Attractions in London
Wherever you stay in London, you will find an endless variety of things to do. If you like shopping, you might want to head to the hundreds of stores along Oxford Street and Regent Street or visit some of London’s many street markets: Camden Market in Camden Town, Portobello Market in Notting Hill or the East London markets around Brick Lane.
If it is theater or films you enjoy, the West End has dozens of world-class cinemas and theaters around Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square. Soho is one of the hotspots of London’s nightlife but there are great bars and pubs in most parts of the city. If you venture outside the touristy areas on Leicester Square or Oxford Circus, you can find great places for an evening out. You will also spend less money than you would in central London.
There are so many tourist attractions in London that to visit all of them would take months. Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London belong to the most famous attractions. Wherever your hotel Londres is located, you can get to all parts of London easily on public transport.
