Recommended Hotels in London

by Fish&Tips

London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom, and is the largest urban area in Greater London. London is the biggest city in western Europe, and the world's largest financial center. The River Thames also travels through the city. I will be introducing some hotels in London in detail and with plenty of pictures.

Montcalm Royal London House

The “Montcalm Royal London House-City of London” is a new hotel in the center of the city with three stations around the hotel. There is also a restaurant and bar in the hotel and the price is reasonable.

The building was British style and it was a perfect building that matched the elegant atmosphere of the whole city.

Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel

I chose “Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel,” because I first thought of going to Penzance on the sleeper train “Night Riviera” after going to a musical, but it turned out that it would not be operating on Saturday, and I was suddenly in London. There is a cheap B&B near Paddington Station, but the rooms seemed too narrow. Luckily, I found this hotel that seemed perfect for me.

It was a nice and spacious room with a simple design. I was able to spend a relaxing time. It was a twin bed room, but there was still plenty of room to open up my suitcase on the floor.

Howard Winchester Hotel

This hotel was very convenient for going to Cambridge and the North, and it was very close to Kings Cross station, which is the location of the movie “Harry Potter.” They also had a reasonable plan that included breakfast. It was within walking distance of the British Museum and I thought it would be convenient for sightseeing in London. There are many shops around the station which was very nice as well.

Good Hotel London

The “Good Hotel London” has good access to London City Airport and also has good reviews. I was very interested in the area that was established at the time of the London Olympics. It was a little bit far away from central London, but it was a calm place. The train station (Royal Victoria) was convenient for exploring Greenwich in front of the Ropeway station connecting the River Thames. The hotel itself is very new is a popular place for people to stay.

The front desk, lounge and restaurant are all open floors with no wall partitions. This hotel seems to be a social service organization that trains local people with long-term unemployment and uses all of their benefits to educate underprivileged children, so the staff were well trained and I was able to check in and out smoothly.

IMG_0817 (23) copy

I was a little surprised at how small the room was compared to to the spacious lobby. However, it was a very clean and functional room.

Premier Inn Heathrow Airport Terminal 4

I chose “Premier Inn Heathrow Airport Terminal 4” because my return flight was in business class, so I wanted to enjoy the Heathrow airport lounge and make it an airport hotel with less travel time.

IMG_0816 (1)

The room is very compact, but clean. It is not a gorgeous room, but it is functional, so if you are only staying to get some rest it would not be a problem.
