I love London. It is my favourite place in the UK. Why? Well, it is an exciting place to get away from it all. Now, I love breaks and holidays. I love just getting away. London is thoroughly reccomended to anyone wanting to escape on a Leisure break for any duration.

There are more than enough hotels although I look and stay at well known brands like Holiday-Inn, Thistle, MoatHouse, Marriott, Hilton, TravelInn, Travelodge, Innkeepers Lodge- you get the picture. I haven't stayed at all these brands but a few and I always look for them aswell as other brands I haven't mentioned. The biggest hotelier in London is Thistle Hotels which are 4 star luxury hotels. They have them covered with 24 London Hotels looking in my Thistle brochure. I also like to stay on the borders sometimes like in Croydon or beckenham and maybe even Heathrow. Some private ones though, you may have to watch. Dont forget Thistle has other ones apart from London!

Wining and Dining is easy in London with High Street brands like Pizza Hut, KFC, McDonalds, Harry Ramsdons and all the high street brands. They have privately owned ones which some can be nice, some might not be.

Transport is absolutely great. You may choose to go by Bus which are red usually. Or you may chhose the London Underground which maybe better than buses because of no traffic but I hate the low down ones like the Bakerloo line. Gives me the shivers. There are taxis and in some areas overground train services.

People, like always varies. i like most London people as they are down to earth usually. Of course, as it is a big City, you get a wide range of people so some maybe not nice but I find most people are.

Attraction wise, there are loads of things to do. I absolutely love The Tower of London because of it's fascinating attractions. This is next to Tower Bridge on the River Thames. Also on the River Thames is The London Eye. This is good although when you first go up you
may feel sick. I felt better when we were higher up than when we were escalating- weird! There are loads and loads and loads more to do. Hundreds. Oh, i also like The Victoria and Albert Museum, The British Museum and many more.

Overall, this is a truly Spectacular City. London is steeped in History and combines Old Elegance and Museums with Contemporary style too. So if you like oldy worldy things or museums then come or if you like more contemporary, modern style things then come. I like modern style but am fascinated by the museums.

Happy travelling!
PS I always go there 1-2 times a year and I love it!
