What area to stay in London
We are doing the ESW tour followed by England & the west country May of 26. We have 2 nights between tours and are planning to stay in London and hit sites the ESW tour does not. We’ve not been to London and are looking for input as the best area to stay in.

There is great public transportation in London.

Do you want a cheap hotel or an expensive one. We have stayed at the Savoy….expensive, and the Strand Palace….very reasonably priced with a great restaurant….they are just about opposite each other and in a good location.
The “best” area is very subjective and should be based on your interests. I have only been to London once, so I am certainly not an expert.
We also stayed at the Savoy where we enjoyed the Covent Garden area and the walkway that borders the Thames. We thought it was a great area with theaters, shopping, restaurants and more. As Goddess indicated, public transportation is plentiful and easy to use.
Recently stayed at the Sea Containers, Southbank of the Thames with stunning views of the north bank, including Saint Pauls, which was very nice to wake up to. It's more modern but had a good breakfast buffet.
I previously stayed around the Baker St. area which was probably the most convenient location. as the Baker St. Station can connect you just about anywhere you need to do.
But you really can't choose a wrong location with the public transport as Goddess says.
