London Apartment Summary

Featured in the New York Times Travel Section! Ideally located just across street from Tower of London & next to beautiful Trinity Square Gardens. Just 1 min. walk from Tower Hill tube stop, & approx. 3 min. from Tower Gateway DLR, you'll find this flat the ideal base from which to explore London! Many points of historic interest are nearby, including the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, & the Roman Wall. Located in 'The City' or financial district, the area is very safe, even for walking around late at night. Due to flat's proximity to the tube station, you can hop on & quickly be near any major attraction in central London: Buckingham Palace, Churchill's War Rooms, Whitehall, Parliament, Big Ben, Kensington Palace. Also nearby (meaning under 15 minute walk) is St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, London Bridge, The City, St Katherine's Dock, Shad Thames (riverwalk area with more restaurants/pubs/shops), Sir Francis Drake's ship, Shakespeare's Globe Theater, Tate Museum, etc.

Location of Apartment 166987

Nearest airport:   Heathrow at 18 Miles
Nearest beach:   beach at 40.0 Miles
Car: not necessary

There are many pubs & restaurants within a 1-2 minute walk. The Hung, Drawn & Quartered pub is just across Great Tower Street next to All Hallows (church). There are 3 other pubs, a French restaurant, a Spanish restaurant, an Asian noodle place, a pizza/pasta place & a Subway sandwich shop all within a 1-2 minute walk. If you're willing to walk a bit further, you will find a seemingly endless supply of restaurants. One not to miss is Dickens Inn (a former hanging ground for pirates) at St Katherine's Docks! The docks also host a small marina and many quaint cafes, shops & restaurants of all price ranges. If you choose to walk east about 10-15 minutes, you'll find yourself in London's East End, & perhaps at Brick Lane which is famous for its excellent Indian food! I highly recommend the Jack the Ripper Walking Tour of the East End, held at night & starting from the Tower Hill tube, just about a minute (if that) from the flat.
