Harrods

Over-rated, over-priced and over busy....all in all an awful store

I love Harrods and always go in when I'm visiting London. Located on Brompton road in Knightsbridge with easy access to tubes and buses, it is visited by thousands everyday.The best way to visit Harrods is by tube with the nearest station being knightsbridge on the picadilly line. The store is open 10am - 7pm Monday to Saturday and 11.30am - 6pm on Sundays. Harrods is a very impressive building inside and out. There are always fantastic window displays so even if you do not wish to go in, you can walk outside and enjoy the spectacular window arrangements especially around Christmas time.

Overall my favourite would be the Georgian ...  Read the complete review

There is ...  Read the complete review

Harrods is a department store located on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, London and is part of the Harrods brand which have several other enterprises under it's belt such as Harrods Aviation & Air Harrods. The store itself is something that I find to be instantly recognisable as it is currently one of the largest department stores in the word and is one that I thoroughly visiting, even if just for a browse. The store itself occupies a 4.5 acre site and has around 300 different departments within. It really would be quite possible to spend several days exploring the different areas of the store and spending enough money to clear all third world ...  Read the complete review
