Lidos Hotel
by 1Sharla
I cant seem to find feedback on Lidos Hotel near Victoria Station. It is very cheap, and right now my budget demands cheap.
That area is supposed to be a good "hub" to get around, and not too bad of an area--is it?
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hiya!
Victoria station area is central, very busy and good for, buses, tube etc to get to all the major attractions and many are walking distance from there.
Very late at night there will be groups of drunks, homeless people etc but usually harmless. Just don't hang around if you are alone (and even if you aren't!) - but that's just general advice that would apply wherever you are really! :) Have fun!

Thank you Mariejoy. Do you recommend any local pubs or places to relax and get a feel for the local culture that are close to this area? If not is there any that would be easily accessible?

There are lots of pubs in the area, Just pop in to one, see if you like it, if not try another one! :)) I am usually only in the area to catch a train but there are some reviews of pubs in Victoria on this site:

Victoria's an OK area, though nothing special from a resident's perspective. It's a safe area without a high sleazebag quotient, a little characterless, but reasonably near tourist attractions. Like most residents, I haven't a clue about hotels.

Victoria Station area is a bit souless...not my choice...but then again I live here. Lidos gets a 2 star rating on trip advisor...comments were 'small rooms, basic, but clean'.
Hope that helps

Travel Tips for London
You need many years to visit...
by almogaver
You need many years to visit London. It´s such a surprising place!!.Of course you have Picadilly, the
London Tower, Trafalgar Square, The British Museum,
and many, many places. But, don´t forget the best:
look around you, the show is everywhere and everytime.
Go to the pubs, to the Soho, to the markets, and take a moment to drink a tea like you want. I never forget my first arrival to London. I was driving my own car from home on the left side, of course, and it was friday afternoon......
We were in the meedle of a great cars blockage. I´m
very 'intelligent' and I´ll took a small road to leave
all the cars. After more than an hour I didn´t know
were I was. I was looking for a B&B place near London, but not in the center. I stopped and asked a
policeman....I was one minute far of Picadilly Circus!!. You can imagine at what time I was in my room.
Chinatown
by draguza
If you like Chinese food, here is the place!
Chinatown, London. A place full of the smell of the orient. It is mainly an area of restaurants and supermarkets with one or two gift shops. Gone are the small shops that sold Chinese shoes and dresses.
Best time to visit if you want to avoid massive crowds is during the working week. Chinese New Year would be overwhelmingly crowded but the decorations are in place a few days before and afterwards. Mid-Autumn Festival also has decorations. Far less national publicity is paid to this festival.
Shops are open quite late into the evening and 7 days a week.
Restaurants vary in price from cheap to very expensive. There are also a couple of Taiwanese restaurants as well as Japanese tucked among the many mainland Chinese
The world famous Big Ben
by shivan
Boooong, booooong, booooong!
Don't forget to visit the Big Ben, and also don't forget to avoid it at "o'clock" times! It plays sooo loud!
Just joking, I haven't been in the Big Ben, I just enjoyed it from outside, and honestly I think I did well, the external part is its most famous one, isn't it?
British Phone Booths
by Callavetta
Every first time visitor to the UK notices these characteristic phone booths right off the bat! Be sure to take a photo of someone in your party making a pretend phone call home. Then buy a phone booth magnet for your fridge as a souvenier of your trip to London.
