London

London is a varied and exciting capital city, world renowned for its fashion, style and attractions. You will be bewitched by the number of places that you can visit from Soho to Hyde Park and from Trafalgar Square to Buckingham Palace you will never be short of things to see or do.

You may want a visit to Her Majesty’s Royal Palace and Fortress, commonly known as the Tower of London and find time to explore the unique history of the castle on the north bank of the River Thames. There will be plenty of time for leisure, shopping or perhaps have us arrange a theatre show one evening.

Also included in our London tour is a visit to Windsor Castle, the largest inhabited castle in the world and the oldest in continuous occupation; over 900 years. It is one of the Queen’s three official residences and is often said to be her favourite.

We spend time exploring the Castle which includes the State Apartments, St George’s Chapel and Queen Mary’s Dolls House. To complete the visit we will also see the Royal landscape of Saville Gardens; 36 acres of stunning gardens. We will use a number of excellent 2 and 3 star hotels in the Capital, all convenient for sightseeing.

The 3 star Hotel Gresham is a neo-Georgian style building located in central London. Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens are right on the doorstep. Take a walk across Hyde Park and you will find yourself in Knightsbridge, home to the world famous department store Harrods.

Also within walking distance (or short tube ride) are the main interesting historical sites such as the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, The British Museum, The Tate.Modern Gallery and St Paul’s Cathedral. The Gresham has 57 rooms, all tastefully restored and refurbished and all with en-suite facilities, TV and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast and evening meals are taken in the new restaurant recently opened.

Norfolk Towers Hotel Paddington again is 3 star and located between Hyde Park and Regents Park, close to Paddington train station.

All attractions are again close by. All 35 rooms have full bathroom facilities, TV and hairdryers. Again meals will be taken in the hotel’s own restaurant.
