If you're going to London, invest time in as many of Jess' videos as possible, AND purchase one of her itineraries. That's truly all you need to be well prepared and have a wonderful trip. We went back in December and felt prices were comparable to here in the US. We opted to stay at Park International Hotel, which offered a free breakfast when booked directly with them. It was conviently located near Glocester tube station. There is also a Waitrose right at the tube , so we opted to eat lunch out and then pick up food for the dinner there to take back to the room (another great budget saver). Once in London, we didn't pay for anything as far as sightseeing or attractions; there's so much to do for free, and it was nice to just take in the city and come and go as we pleased. And, thanks to the L&L itinerary, we saw A LOT. We feel like we had a very full, enjoyable experience and can't wait to go back!
As someone else has mentioned Premier Inns adjacent to train stations 15 mins out of town are generally cheaper but quick to get into city centre. Those north of the Thames also have the benefit of access to tube as well as train. I have used Premier Inns at Harrow and Wembley Park. Welwyn Garden City is also convenient for train and then tube connection. All of these all of these hotels are less than 5 mins from the station. Woolwich is also convenient for Elizabeth line. There is also one other to east of London immediately adjacent to overground station (Canning Town…. Convenient for Docklands Light Railway and Jubilee line£
Thank you for sharing! ❤I'm going on a trip there! By the way I found it possible to use code on trainpal to get a discount on the purchase of tickets, which saved my budget lol! If anyone needs,I can share～
We always stay at the Premier Inn near East Croydon station and take the train into London Victoria or London Bridge in less than 20 minutes after the peak. £4.20 each way using an Oyster card, and the nightly rates are a hell of a lot cheaper than staying in central London.
So glad you're promoting the TfL buses! We found the underground much more difficult to navigate with a cane, and of course the sightseeing is so much better from the bus, especially if you have a long ride and can get to the top deck.
Our trip is all booked flight and accommodations are all paid for. We will be at the Hilton Kensington London. Right across the street from the Westfield Shopping Center. My wife and I will be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary during our stay in May. What’s a nice romantic place to go?
Look for places with water along. 😀 For instance The Riverside near Vauxhall is a great and romantic spot, when it's for diner. The view over Thames is wide and you can see the sun going down very well. Romantic walk in the evening: start at Paddington Basin near Paddington station and walk into the sunset, following the canal, strolling through Little Venice. When people do not disturb your romance: just sit at Canalside Green Steps, at Granary Square.
@@BostonBobby1961firstly congratulations for your 35th wedding anniversary. Me and my family will also be there for a leisure trip and my 5th wedding anniversary on 14th of May. Loveandlondon has been my go to guide for the last couple of years now.
We’ll be in London in about 3 weeks. My Dad is in his late 70’s & this trip is a bucket list item of his! While I know I won’t be prepared for everything, your content has helped ease my mind and make preparations.
Thank you so much, I lived in London for about two years, back in the nineties. Now I want to go back there and show my 12 year old son the city. Your channel has made me relax a little, I am still nervous though 😊 I have only discovered this channel today, so I’m going to watch as many videos as I can before we go, thank you!
We are three and came from Abudhabi...using contact less cards for public transport after watching your videos and it was working smoothly,landed in Heathrow yesterday...Thank you ❤
Another great video 📹 👏 👍 👌 from jess 👏 and her amazing team 👏 in London always 😊 a big thanks to jess a kind hearted american lady and the amazing team.bless you all who tou help out with advice always 😊👏👌👍📹
If you are from California you will find prices for accommodations pretty comparable to London ( unless you have 3 people in one room needing real beds not a couch) but the day to day food is MUCH cheaper. Wraps, sandwiches, takeaway sushi, Doner shops and groceries are easily 30% less than the equivalent in CA. Fine dining however is about the same as CA. This was such a fun discovery. My teenagers bought every snack they wanted. 😅
Many of the merchants at Mercado run lunch specials during the week. We had bowls of pasta and red gravy at an Italian stand for 6 pounds then finished it off at the cafe that sold a gelato w/ an espresso for 5. And it was super good, all of it. I also saw pizza slice deals and pho bowl specials.
Excellent tips! It's great that you explain the transport discount options for kids, that under 11 year olds travel for free and 11-15 can get a Young Visitor discount, and where to get it. Although it's not obvious where to get the young visitor discount when coming from the airport to central London through other means other than the tube (e.g. Elizabeth line train). As a family it's always a challenge to understand what the best cost-effective options are when travelling. It's also super expensive to travel as a family. Maybe a tip for you (and a good business opportunity perhaps?) is to include more information for families in your videos? I'd love to see videos like these but focused on families. Something like "Tips for families on a budget". Keep up the good work!
We generally focus on adults travelling to London ! That being said we've got kids stuff on our site and will do a youtube video at some point. Loveandlondon.com
Thank you for the hints. The past 2 times I went, I've stayed in hostels. I preferred the Cricketers hostel. Im trying to convince my friend to stay there when we go next year.
Veterans can use the union jack club amkngst other places catering yo them at discounted rates,and US vets get accepted as temporary members too (with proof of service)..well worth looking into as well located and much cheaper than most places.
One thing I found out by accident - during school holiday seasons, the London School of Economics (LSE) will rent out their student dorms and apartments as hotels - depending on the location and time of year, you can find a really cheap dorm/apartment ranging from 60-100 per night. They're not super fancy, but if you just need a decent place and you probably won't spend tons of time in your room, I'd recommend it. Most of them offer either free breakfast or full English and many of them are located close to tube stations, it's definitely worth checking out to save some money.
Last year and again this year, I'm staying at a place on the strand which is very reasonable. I always enjoy London. It also is very easy to get into London from LHR on the tube. There was one time where I had to take a cab and it was around 80 quid.
Thank you Jess! Headed there in May…..how about laundromats or cheap places to get laundry service while there…..I didn’t really see many upon googling…..many thanks!
I have watched a lot of your videos, and they are great! You seem very well informed about food, so I would appreciate it if you could recommend a vegan restaurant or a place to eat.
I love your tips and all your videos and I also want to say my flight is booked for London on August 22 and I look forward to taking my first trip overseas.
Hi Jess, Your videos are a must watch for anyone visiting London. I was hoping you may be able to guide me. I am wondering if one could buy an Oyster card at Gatwick. I'm planning to take the Southern/Thames Link train to London Bridge. Also any tips on how to add the young visitor discount to oyster card. Many thanks
Yes, you can buy them from Gatwick at the concierge desks or at the station. All the info on the young visitor card is contained in this article: loveandlondon.com/how-to-pay-for-kids-on-londons-public-transport-when-visiting-london/
Another great video! It’s a niche thing to some extent, but if you do a lot of business travel, London is a great place to redeem hotel points. A category 8 hotel in New York might be $350/night but the same points will get you a £350-450/night hotel in London. I pretty much only redeem in London!
Totally depends on where your hotel is! Have a watch of our transport videos and grab our London Transport Guide: shop.loveandlondon.com/products/london-transport-guide
I'm new here! Just found you and subscribed. One thing that I cannot find information on is very basic but with our new "reality" has become life saving for someone immune compromised like me. I cannot find hotels with windows that open. I want to be able to air out the room when I check in and limit my chances of getting ill while traveling. However, hotel websites never list if the windows open or not. Even luxury hotels do not have windows that open unless there's some sort of terrace on a very expensive suite. I don't like airbnb and other short term. If you're ever looking for a topic to cover London hotels with windows that open is one that there's virtually no info on and would be appreciated. I tend to stay in West London areas near Maida Vale. Thanks and keep up the good work.
2:09 Some French tourists with children recently came up to my wife and i and asked they were looking for a particular hostel, my wife exclaimed "Hostel?!". The term sometimes triggers unflattering images.
Just found your channel! Great info! We are staying in the area by hyde park. Which outdoor market would you recommend to try different foods? Thank you!
there aren't any markets right in that area but we tell you the best ones we recommend in our London Itinerary! shop.loveandlondon.com/products/3-day-london-itinerary
Can you answer this question. What is the best way to get from the Heathrow Airport to Euston stop to take the shuttle to the Harry Potter Tour. I am not able to find the best way to travel from point A to point B. Please help.
I've been last year in London and stayed at a budget hotel in Paddington. There are a lot of budget hotels there, and all of them in the same price range. For the planned trip in this year I've got a tip, from friends which lived in England for some time and traveled a lot. It's a well known hotel chain, which can't be booked over the usual search engines. And tada!... it's quite affordable!
Do you have any spiritual guides for London? I tried looking for things while I was here and I was unlucky. This is my 2nd trip and this time I was more prepared.
Hi there, I want to know the best way (and cheapest) to get to the city central from Luton airport? you don't have anything about that airport, btw love your videos. going to London this weekend.
Why do you say a Travelcard is a rip off ?, we are staying in a Ibis hotel for £42 a night in zone 6 and the Travelcard is £15.90 off peak, 30p more than a capped fare, and that gets you 2 for 1s on many attractions and 30% off river boats.
@@loveandlondon The current price is 42 pounds for zones 1 and 2. I have done the calculation of my anticipated routes using the contactless card fare and the travel card is quite a bit cheaper. The Oyster card requires a 7 pound initial outlay, One can't practically benefit from contactless weekly fare caps unless your week runs Monday to Sunday.
Hi im coming to london in june and I wanted to ask if they take cash? Because i cant use my credit card for everything because there is an amount of money i can use in my credit card
Agree that you should use card where possible, plenty of fee-free options these days. If you must get cash, have a look at Thomas Exchange Global - always seem to get the best in-person cash rates compared to other places.
Hi there, I do hope you are keeping well. Love the videos you share with us. My question to you is that i am flying over to London from Montreal, Canada this September and have been trying to order a Oyster Visitors card and have yet to have any success. I order the card i want and got to check-out. I enter all my particulars, including my credit card to pay and nothing. I sit here and watch this thing just spin, and spin and spin. Any help would be greatly appreciated on being able to get a card before i get there. If not i shall try at the airport or Victoria Station as i shall be staying at the Hotel RIU Plaza.
Don't order a tourist oyster they're very unnecessary. Here's our article on your payment options : loveandlondon.com/how-to-pay-for-public-transport-in-london/
Hi there. Thank-you for your quick reply. I have decided to go with my debit or credit card using the tap and go system. I would also like to take this time to say how well produced and informative your videos are. I get a good chuckle when you add in your bloopers at the end. 😁😁😁
Oyster card is not a good option as it requires an initial outlay of 7 pounds without any benefit. Contactless cards do not benefit from weekly caps if your week does not run from a Monday to a Sunday. It seems the weekly travel card is a good option for Zones 1 and 2: at 42 pounds it is a lot cheaper than 7 x the daily cap of 8 pounds.
I got robbed in that Hostel (St Christopher’s inn) I stayed there twice because first time it was ok but second time literally somebody OPENED my Locker and took all my cash 😢
I would not recommend an Oyster card at all, you have to buy one & that thing used to eat all my money compared to just using contactless. If you’re visiting from abroad though then there will be charges for using your debit card abroad so you’ll need to put your money on a travel card or something

Many places do but we are a very card heavy city so you should arrange to use debit and credit when you can.
@@loveandlondon i saw your video about the underground stations and for what i understood i cant pay by cash to ride metro!
may I know free under 11yrs transportation is for uk or only london ?
London!
Where should we do money exchange?
You shouldn't! Use card and get cash from a cash machine if you really need it.
Agree that you should use card where possible, plenty of fee-free options these days. If you must get cash, have a look at Thomas Exchange Global - always seem to get the best in-person cash rates compared to other places.

HAHAHHAHA LITERALLY

No, it's 100% free. Sounds like you booked a reservation at one of the bars or restaurants which have minimum spends.

There are never free tickets to the sky garden, you can't even book them in advance
Yes there are! You have to be on it, they release tickets 2 weeks ahead, on Mondays.

I would not recommend an Oyster card at all, you have to buy one & that thing used to eat all my money compared to just using contactless.
If you’re visiting from abroad though then there will be charges for using your debit card abroad so you’ll need to put your money on a travel card or something
Yup! Lots of options for cards that don't charge foreign currency fees ❤️
