A Short Stay in London: Where to Rest Your Head
As my trip to London approaches on October 26, I’ve secured accommodations and would appreciate your thoughts on my choices.
I’ll be attending a show at the O2 Arena, and my plan is to stay at The Pilot, which is conveniently located nearby for easy access after the event. For additional nights during my visit, I’ve chosen some interesting spots: The Princess Royal in Notting Hill, The Orange in Belgravia, and The Grazing Goat in Marylebone.
Being a sound sleeper, I’m not overly concerned about potential noise and figured that for a brief stay, smaller venues, particularly those located above pubs, could offer a unique and cozy experience.
I’d love to hear your feedback on my selections. Did I make good choices, or should I reconsider? Thank you in advance for your insights—they’re greatly appreciated!
Great choices for a short London stay, especially with your focus on cozy and authentic experiences!
As a fellow London resident, I think you’ve picked some excellent locations that capture different facets of the city’s vibrant neighborhoods. Staying near the O2 Arena makes sense for convenience, especially if you’re catching a show—consider checking out nearby Greenwich as well for a touch of maritime history and beautiful park settings during your downtime.
Your selection of The Princess Royal in Notting Hill is spot-on for a charming, boutique experience with access to the West End and Portobello Road Market. The Orange in Belgravia offers a more upscale vibe, perfect for a luxurious local feel, and Marylebone’s The Grazing Goat provides a cozy community atmosphere — great for relaxing after busy days exploring.
