London is a large city with a range of Accommodation Whitsundays options. We recommend that participants stay in the Bloomsbury area where the Institute is located. Bloomsbury is within walking distance of many of London’s attractions, for instance the British Museum, the British Library, Covent Garden and Soho. Several London Underground lines are in the immediate vicinity of the Institute: the Northern Line (Goodge Street, Euston and Kings Cross Stations), the Piccadilly Line (Russell Square), the Central Line (Holborn or Tottenham Court Road), the Victoria Line (Warren Street) and the Metropolitan, Hammersmith & City and Circle Lines (Euston Square). Below are details of some Accommodation Whitsundays options in the Bloomsbury area. Where prices are given these are accurate to the best of our knowledge at the time of publishing, but you should check with the relevant hotel or B&B for up-to-date rates and reservation information.
