"The Generator Hostel is situated just n of the University "campus",
which is a pretty dull area for night-life. Visitors should get an
Oyster card and make for the Underground station to get to stations
nearer the river. Or walk east to the other side of Tottenham Ct Road,
where things brighten up considerably, with ample bars and good cheap
restaurants.

"Tube is still best way to travel around London - would recommend as we
probably saved a fortune using the tube although we did spend a fortune
on taxis late at night.

"Use the day bus pass for 3.50 and you can ride an old Routemaster bus.
For speed use the underground day pass for 5.10.
See all the free stuff like the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace first. The guards at Horseguards Parade and of course the Houses of Parliament.
If it is raining ejoy any of the fanstic art galleries or museums for free.
Two chicken and chips meals for 3 pounds by the Tower of London was the best food deal. Allow a long time to see the Tower of London if you like jewels and armour.

"This hotel is in great location covent garden at the rear with its
markets and other attractions within easy reach, t he routemaster buses
now only operate on three heritage routes taking in a number of sites
the number 9 and 15 stop opposite the hotel, when useing the buses buy a
day saver or one of the other offers its cheaper. If you fancy a pint
there are a number of good pubs around ,the coal hole opposite the hotel
is good, but Iwas amazed to find the cheapest pint of beer I have ever
come across in London a really qaint little pub on the same side as the
stand hotel the lyceum at £1.78 a pint beat that eating out aviod the
poor food and rip off prices at the scotch steak house near the strand
palace go around the corner two minutes away you will always remember
eating at the papageno whith its amazing themed interia and the price to
eat there is cheaper than most places around there its exellent food and
good value inc a complimentry brandy !

"Buy a daily or weekly ticket forthe tube and buses, much better value
than buying single trip tickets. The open top buses touring London are a
bit expensive at £40 but you also get a free river trip, we would not
use them again. If you like good British food try Simpsons in the Strand-
expensive but really good. The Banquette in the Savoy Hotel offers
reasonable value meals but the wine can easily double your bill.; There
is plenty to do without spending a fortune, walks along the river
(free), entry to the watercolour society gallery (free), probably the
best museums in the world (free).

"It is a really nice hotel for location in the West End but maybe upgrade
to the club room if you are staying for a special occasion as the other
rooms are quite small, and ask for a room situated on the outside edge
of the building rather than the inside to avoid being so closely
situated to other noisy guests. Also pay the little bit extra for
English breakfast as we realised on the day there is a seperate queue
which is quicker and a lot better run. We had a nice stay though overall
considering what a bargain we payed for it. Would stay again purely for
the location.

"If travelling with people who need assistance (as I was - my niece and
her friend both have Down's Syndrome) I would advise to stay a little
closer to the hub of activity - we couldnt get a cab back after a show
at the Palladium and the buses were confusing to figure out at that time
of night. We missed the bus stop on the way back and got lost getting
back to the hotel which was unnerving as no-one knew where Leinster
Square was and very few were willing to help. Having said that, this was
the only downer in a wonderful weekend in London.

"Take a hot water bottle if you feel the cold.
Don't get your heart strings pulled by the 'beggars' who 'work' the underground.
Wear comfortable walking shoes, you see much more and get the 'feel' of London; it's a great city. Take one of the Open Top sightseeing buses for the information and to orientate yourself.
Visit as many of London's Parks as you can, havens of tranquillity in the midst of the bustle and noise ARE possible to find.
Have patience.....smile a lot; brighten someone's day for no cost.
