What about llford area? Please advice
by Khurram73
Guys
I want to know about area of llford? Is it a safer area to stay with family? I found a budgetry hotel ( which seems reasonable choice as well from web sites ), however bit concerned about the area ( as it seems quite farther from central London)
Hotel is around 200m from Grants Hill station in llford area? Would it be safe to leave family alone , as i would be attending training in central London for first few days of our trip...
please advice!

Easy hotels are fine, but I'm not sure I'd want to stay in them with children...they really are 'just sleep' places.
I wish I could tell you more specifically about Ilford, but I can't. I am, however, certain that your family will be perfectly safe exploring the area whilst you are at work I know this is one of your concerns). The UK is a hugely multicultural place, and London especially so.
But you should be wary of travel costs. A cheaper hotel might not work out quite so cheap once you have added in travel costs every day for you, and occasional costs for your family.

will give you an idea of Tube, bus and DLR (Docklands Light Railway) fares. Gants Hill is in Zone 4. Tube etc maps here:

I've passed through Ilford a couple of times and whilst it's not a particularly attractive suburban town it should be safe enough. It's a very multi-cultural area and whilst it certainly isn't central for London your location near Gants Hill station, which is on the Underground (Tube) Central line into the city, should make commuting relatively cheap and easy.

I go to Ilford as a hockey umpire (field hockey) four or five times each year and can tell you that it fine. I don't find it an attractive area ---no tourists, just multi-cultural residents.
On my last trip there, about a month ago, I arrived very early on a Saturday morning and I wandered into a shopping area to buy a coffee. Everyone in the shop was friendly.
I would not wander around at night ---but then I wouldn't do that in my own popular-with-the-tourists town of Tunbridge Wells!
I hope that this helps!

I agree about Gants Hill and Ilford, very multicultural and no real dangers. There is easy access to central London in about 30 minutes on the Underground (tube)Central Line. The nearby districts of Ilford and Barking, easily reached by bus, have lots of shops and markets and places for your family to visit.
Also I agree about Tunbridge Wells, having lived there for 5 years and in Tonbridge for 25!

It may be safe but it's dull. Pretty cruel leaving family in such a suburban yawnsville whilst you're on a training course in central London :)

I agree with Leffe. Get your family somewhere where they too can enjoy London in an easy way. There are budget hotels in the Paddington and Earls Court areas for instance.
Travel Tips for London
What is left to say
by evariia
Week in London isn't enough to capture the spirit of the City. However, I see no reason to regret the experience, which includes talking to some quite open minded but somewhat insecure youngsters. Generally citizens might seem pretentious, or even tired kind of insolence can be noticed. But surely the reaction depends upon what attributes the traveler has, suitcase is sufficient as an idiot pass. Most of the striking architecture reflects the work and mentality of predecessors of current Londoners. People who work or study in London have visage, that their profession has imposed to them. If somebody could answer the question, if Londoners fit with the image of London, please leave the comment on that.

by oneonta_ni
I suppose if it is your first time in London, you have to visit the usual tourist haunts - Buckingham Palace, the Tower, Tower Bridge, Madame Tussaud's, etc. I did most of that my first visit, except the wax museum ( I don't understand why it is such a huge attraction) and the Tower (it was stupidly expensive). Once you get that out of your system, you are ready for markets, museums and just a dander around the different neighbourhoods.
Hyde Park

At over 350 acres, Hyde Park is one of the largest green spaces in Central London.
Hyde Park provides facilities for many different leisure activities and sports as well as being the focal point for public events of all sizes.

A famous landmark in London is the Piccadilly Circus. The name Piccadilly originates from a 17th century dressmaker who lived in the area and created a frilled collar called a 'piccadil'. The Circus part basicly referes to the amount of traffic streaming through the busy roundabout. In the center of Piccadilly Circus is a bronze fountain with a statue of 'EROS'. It is surrounded by one of the busiest traffic roundabouts. A junction of five busy streets, Piccadilly Circus is a reputed London landmark around which one can find the famous fashions from Carnaby Street, London Soho, Chinatown, Leicester Square, the London Theaters, jazzy nightlife, and fantastic entertainment.
Christmas in London
by tvor
London lights up for the Christmas season. Oxford Street, Bond Street, Regent Street, Carnaby Street and in between, there are beautiful window displays, lights and decorations wherever you look in the shopping districts. Walk and look but watch the traffic. Best places for pictures are the traffic islands as you cross the road.
