Once in the Tube station, you'll need to find where the elevators are. I know they have them, but I've never used them. The track is rather deep down from street level, and I don't think you'd want to take the stroller on the escalators.
Ok, thanks. Seems like for a family trip, Paddington may be a slightly better location. It doesn't get quite the same reviews, though -- plus, I will be diamond by our stay and it sounds as though Tower Bridge is better for Diamonds than Paddington.
