We'd love to hear from you! Where should you stay in London—and what’s the best area for a first-time visitor? In this episode of Publicity — Your London Travel Toolkit, Expat Andy explains why there isn’t one universally “best” area to stay in London and offers a more useful way to choose your London home base. Learn how to match your hotel location to your itinerary, preferred neighborhood atmosphere, budget and London transport connections; why staying “central” isn’t always the answer; and when Central London makes sense for a first visit. Andy also walks through a practical six-step method for narrowing the city down to two or three areas that fit the London trip you actually want to take.
