This will be our second time in London, first without the kids. We've already been to most of the main tourist sites, though it was nearly a decade ago.
I've narrowed the options down to the Bankside for 70K points, the Hart Shoreditch for 80K points, or the Gantry for £150 (yes, I know it's a bit far out). Good breakfast/lounge access is nice to have but not that important. Same with Diamond room upgrades. Any advice/insights?
As a Londoner myself I always ask if tourists have considered Greenwich?….. stay at Hilton Canary Wharf, the area is a business area , clean , safe and has a great dock to explore with nice bars and restaurants.
Greenwich is a 5 minute ride on the docklands light railway, it’s a great place wich nice parks and markets, it also has some great riverside walks and pubs.
Definitely worth considering, google it.
