Hotels in London - Prices and Reviews

I will be taking an 18 hour coach (bus) ride from London to Berlin tomorrow because I'm too cheap to pay for a plane ticket. I'm also not exactly sure where to go tomorrow but I will ask people once I get there.

The other day I went shopping with my cousin, Heloise, on Oxford street. We went to Primark which is a super cheap store and I ...

Still Cruisin' Miscellaneous I went to Kings Cross Station a few days back to get tix to Scotland - up to Ravenglass to stay at Muncaster Castle. (I had pre-purchased tix on the return from Edinburgh to London because we had a connecting flight we needed to be on to Paris). So I left the outward leg open to organize whilst here. Problem is we ar...

It started with a glass of Champagne by Big Ben! We got front row seats on the plane without requesting them! :-) The flight was 10 hours & I was so knackered I slept most of the way so was in fairly good shape jetlag-wise!

This morning I slept in a bit and took my time getting ready. By the time I got into London, checked my luggage at the left luggage service, and bought my ticket to Stansted, I only had three hours to explore the city. I decided to go check out HMS Belfast but stopped at the Monument beforehand since I had to change tube lines at that station an...

Had a fabulous night sleep in our hotel that UF secured for us. Yay! Went for a canal cruise around Amsterdam and then back to the hotel for a wee coffee & whisky before our jaunt to the airport. Checked in with no hassles and had a few bevvies in the BA lounge where we rehashed our Antwerp/Amsterdam trip - with virtually NO mention of the r...

So we spent today going to a lovely historic city called Winchester. I had no idea it had such a big cathedral and many important historic events took place there like Mary Tutor's wedding to Philip of Spain. For those Jane Austen fans the cathedral holds her last remains and a large monument. There is also a castle there and a it is rumoured th...

Arriving back in London admidst critical terrorist warnings, we managed to score an earlier bus into central London, where we managed to get on the last tube to Elephant & Castle. Unfortunately, it terminated two stops early leaving us to walk and get lost (again). Finally we arrived at our hostel at about 2am, to find that their computers h...

Hey there everyone. Well I've finally hit London. It's a really big busy place. Daph and i caught the train in form Leighton Buzzard. When we got to the station, we found that that they were doing works overnight and had run overtime so we had to wait an hour before our train came. We caught the train to Euston then a taxi (one of the old school...

It's now about a month since I settled in Cambridge, and now I'm used to it. I'm no longer awed by the amazing old buildings every day, but I still have moments of intense appreciation, like when I pass the family of swans on the river by the Granta pub each morning on my way to work. While I've been settling into the daily grind, Ian's been red...
