Location, location, location! If you are staying in London then this is the apartment for you! Less than a minutes walk from the tube to your door. Literally a 10 min train ride and you are in the centre of London. Trains that run til midnight for those who have tickets to a West End show.
The apartment is VERY secure and well appointed. Washing machine, full kitchen and fridge. There was nothing that we needed that wasn’t in the apartment. This was most definitely great value for money, and I can’t emphasise the ease of getting all over London using the tube just one minute away. We are a family of 4, two adults, 2 young kids. We bought cereal, sandwich stuff and microwave dinners from Tesco opp the apartment to save a little money for sight seeing. We also brought our own drink bottles and filled with water and froze each night, meaning we had ice cold water all through the day as we trekked London.
When here speak to the people at the station about tickets. We bought the Oyster card x3 (kids under 11 travel free on everything) and as everything you would see is basically located in zones 1&2, you travel is capped at £7 per day for unlimited travel on trains and busses.
Our sightseeing tip-don’t buy a fast pass, save your money and simply pick ONE big ticket attraction to see each day and get there on opening. We did this for Tower of London, St Pauls Cathedral and Churchill Bunkers and didn’t have any queues, saw the Crown Jewels ( go there as soon as you enter then do the tour) with no people around and only paid the standard entry fee! Then we walked, used the tube and visited free museums etc for the rest of the day.
Thank you Diana for a hassle free entry to the apartment and we have loved using your apartment as our base in London!
