LONDON Unveiled: The Ultimate Guide
How to get around
The Underground (Tube) is definitely the easiest and fastest way to get around London. It has 11 lines and serves 270 stations. Did you know that the London’s Underground was the first passenger underground railway in the world back in 1863!? If you plan on staying for a few days, I recommend you get the pay as you go Oyster Card as it’s much cheaper! You can also use single tickets if you prefer or scan your credit card directly. The fares will vary depending on your journey.
Accommodations
K West Hotel & Spa
I’ve stayed there in 2015 and it was PERFECT! The size of the room was impressive for a European hotel and the location was ideal, right by the tube’s station: Shepherd’s Bush. The hotel is at walking distance of the Westfield London shopping centre in White City where you’ll find a bunch of great shops and restaurants, I highly recommend it!

Millenium Gloucester Hotel London Kensington
I've stayed there in 2023 and once again it was great! A spacious room in a ideal location! Right next to Gloucester Road Tube Station.
