Doing the London tourist commute

Said goodbye to Penny and rushed over to south of Inverness to have a quick lunch with Robin's parents, who are really lovely. A bit of a rush but it was still nice to meet them. Robin's dad gave me another route back to the airport that's a pretty drive rather than taking the A9 up, nice and scenic. Made it to the airport on time and back to London. Had to take the bus over to Heathrow airport from Gatwick, fırst time ever so I'm glad I'm doing this on holiday. 2.5 hours later I was standing...

Collection of snapshots from London

Went to London for 3 consecutive years for trainings and conference. Manage to squeeze in some sightseeing. Went with different companies each time though, so the experience is different.

My first visit was for a conference. It was my first ever trip abroad in my adult life. I went with my mom and a friend of hers. I stayed there for 4 nights while my mum extended her stay for another 3 nights if I am not mistaken. We stayed near Bayswater. We went on the big bus tour, Portobello mark...

Finally in London

Weather: 63F rainy with occasional sun
Things I did: walked around Bayswater/Queensway a bit and stayed around my hotel

We landed at Heathrow around 9:30 or so. I thought it would be sunny here at first (and not rainy as predicted), but it was raining when we landed. A bit cold as well, so I was glad I packed a coat.I got a little panicked, since at first, I couldn't find my luggage. Of course, as Andy predicted, many people had luggage similar to mine. Found my bag, hit the ATM to ...

Tube Strike, Day Two

Weather: 61F partly cloudy
Things I did: continued to walk around Bayswater/Queensway a bit and stayed around my hotel

Well, since the strike is still going strong, I'm still bound to the Bayswater area, which isn't bad. There are lots to do here - plenty of restaurants, a shopping center, a movie theater, etc. So, I decided to explore a bit more, since this will continue to be my home for the next week or so. I went to Sainsbury (a supermarket like Tesco), Marks & Spencers (lik...

Buckingham Palace, Covent Garden and The West End

Weather: 71F, mostly sunny with occasional cloud covering
Things I did: Trouping the Colour, riding the Tube for the first time in over 10 years, got lost in Covent Garden and The Woman in Black

I woke up and was reintroduced to muscles in my legs that I'd forgotten I had. Must've been the hundreds of stairs I climbed down at the Eiffel Tower. Boy, am I thankful I bought the Peppermint Foot Lotion from the Body Shop that I was told to take with me!

Well, I started out the day...

Move along. Nothing to see here...

Weather: around 70F, pretty much same as it's been all week
Things I did: absolutely nothing and it was glorious

Well, this will be relatively brief, as I have a lot to write for other days and not a lot of time to do it in. Unfortunately, today was a much needed day of rest. I seriously overdid the whole walking everywhere thing and could barely move. So, I decided to venture out, get some food and stay in to watch American movies and British TV (I now have two favorite British sho...

Believe it or not, I got sunburnt!

Weather: 72F, sunny with a bit of clouds; thunderstorms around 6PM
Things I did: took a bus tour, which took me all around London to many of the sights I've seen before and had my first Indian "fast food"

Figured I'd be like everyone else, since I really didn't have a plan for today, and took one of those bus tours around London, which goes around all of the attractions. Although I went to some of the attractions while I was here 13 (13!) years ago, I figured - what the hell. Not li...

Theatreland and a Sci-Fi extravaganza

Weather: 72, partly cloudy
Things I did: The Movieum, The London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, The 39 Steps, more Covent Garden and A Doll's House

A lot went on today, so bare with me...

Went back on the tour bus around 9:00 to hopefully make it to the other side of London by 10:25 to catch my free river cruise, but, alas, there was too much traffic. No worries, though. I decided to redeem my ticket for the London Eye, but went to the Movieum first. Basically, a museum that had a l...

The British Musuem & The Blood and Tears of London

Weather: 72, partly cloudy
Things I did: The British Museum, The Blood and Tears Walking Tour of London

Woke up rather late, since it seems as though nearly everything in London opens at 10. Headed over to the British Museum. http://www.britishmuseum.org/ Had a good time there. There were a lot of school groups, who had assignments - kind of like a treasure hunt almost. They had papers they had to complete based on the information around them. I wish I had that kind of field trip wh...

More museums, Chicago...and Jerry Springer

Weather: 66F, party cloudy, cool, and windy
Things I did: The Natural History Museum, The Science Museum, IMAX movie, The Wallace and Gromit Exhibition and Chicago

Woke up a little later again today and headed to Kensington, where the Natural History, Science and Victoria and Albert (V&A) Museums all were. I didn't have time and really wasn't entirely interested in the V&A, so I just went to the other two.

Historical Traveler Reviews of The Redizor Park Inn Hyde Park London

Excellent experience!

from A TripAdvisor Member
I was initially put off staying at the Gresham Hyde Park Hotel based on several of the reviews I had read on this web site. I have to say that our experience at this hotel was nothing less than excellent. The staff was very attentive. The hotel was clean and welcoming. The room we had was what we expected, clean, just the right size and everything in the room was in good working order. All in all a fantastic experience.

Not bad but not the greatest

from A TripAdvisor Member
We only stayed one night here using the BA promotion. I'd stay there again, but I'd consider other places too. Pretty average overall - clean, friendly, a bit small. Highly recommended area of London for a quiet, accessible, safe, reasonably-priced visit.

A Great Place to Stay!!!

from A TripAdvisor Member
Spent 7 nights at the Gresham Hyde Park 2-8 April. This hotel is located 10 minutes from Oxford Street; 4 minutes from Hyde Park & Kensington Gardens and 10 minutes from the famous Notting Hill area. It is mid way between Lancaster Gate & Queensway Tube stations. I highly recommend this hotel to first time visitors. The rooms are clean & comfortable. We stayed on the 1st floor. Heated towel racks; wonderful bathroom facilities; hair dryer, iron, trouser press, tea/coffee making equipment. Staff were extremely helpful and very professional. The continental breakfast was exceptional with lots of items to chose from. This is a first rate hotel. I hope I have the opportunity to return!

Great Hotel- Great People

from A TripAdvisor Member
Just got back from staying at The Gresham/Hyde Park. The rooms were small, by American standards, but everything worked and it was well kept by the housekeeping staff. We stayed on the sixth floor and it was VERY quiet. The entire staff were professional, friendly and helpful and we were delighted with our choice of hotels. I would not recommend the restaurant, however, The Mitre Pub two blocks to the east and half a block north has superb, traditional English fare and is far cheaper.

The Lancaster Gate tube stop is close and convenient and buses or taxis are incredibly available in this area. The Gresham is a great choice for a London visit.

I love this hotel

from Indiegoddess
This is a wonderful hotel in the hotel district of London right off Kensington Gardens. The rooms are just right (Americans need to adjust their expectations in Europe) and superbly appointed. Have stayed here twice as it is the only London hotel, that we have wanted to return to.

The staff are very accomodating and they have a cracking English breakfast. Everything is very clean and you might want to check out the cool bathrooms near the Gym on the first floor (just a little surprise).

Liked the decor

from A TripAdvisor Member
The Hotel was nice and clean and we were welcomed on arrival.

The staff needed training in the dining room as they did not know how to serve meals.

Continental breakfast was abysmal and the first morning we were not even asked if we would like tea, coffee or toast. I waited 20 minutes for Muesli and it did not arrive. The second morning it was better as the manager was around.

Evening meal salmon was burnt to a cinder and there were no potatoes.

Ordered fruit juice and they only had squash. Complained about the meal and no one came to apologise but the next morning we spoke to the manager and he dealt with it fine.

Staff need a lot more training. Thground floor was very cold and draughty and the bedrooms need double glazing as there is outside noise every night, all night.

The Hotel has a lot of potential but many teething problems

Very disappointed!

from KuppChai
We were very disappointed with this 4 star rated hotel. The lobby was impressive on first entrance. We had a room on the first floor, and could easily hear our neighbours. The pics on the web were deceiving, the furniture in the room is old and tired, the carpets worn and the drywall is peeling in the hallway. The cleaning staff are inadequate, there were stains on the walls and our shower wasn't working! Smoke from the main lobby filters in through the ventilation system, so it doesn't matter if you are a non-smoker. The staff at the front were reasonable but did not compensate for a hotel that should have been rated a 3 or 2 star.

Great Service

from A TripAdvisor Member
This hotel had a great, quiet location. Our room was larger than expected (you have to understand the size of European hotel rooms, they are much smaller compared to US standards!) The staff was always very accomodating to us and even went out of their way to make sure that we had what we needed. We were able to hear the guy in the next room talking on the phone, but other than that it was quiet the entire time.

Pack your earplugs if you stay here

from A TripAdvisor Member
We stayed at this hotel for two nights with the BA promotion. It was actually better than I expected appearance wise. My husband and son shared a room with two singles on the same floor with my daughter and myself. We shared a double bed which was pretty comfortable. The room was very small but clean and nicely decorated. The problem was we could here other guests in their rooms coughing or talking. Then in the middle of the night the upstairs guests showered. The pipes sounded like loud sirens going off for 10 minutes. I was kept wake for an hour until they finally went to bed. We moved on to another hotel in London for the next four nights.

Charming but needs attention

from A TripAdvisor Member
We stayed at the Gresham Hyde Park. It is covenient to Kensington Palace and Hyde Park and an Underground Station. It was a charming hotel but our room's thermostat, mini-refrigerator and in-room safe were broken. We felt fortunate to have gotten a king-size room that we didn't ask to be moved. The hotel itself is extremely cute. Also, once you find your way around, there are some good restaurants about 2-3 blocks away. There is also a Greek Restaurant right near the hotel that was pretty good. If you're looking for charm and value, this is a good place to stay (provided everything is working).
