Travelodge London City Airport

Introduction: You will find the Travelodge London City Airport enjoys a great location. Opposite the airport runway and just over half a mile from Excel exhibition centre. This part of London is to the far East, less than 3 miles from the Docklands and canary Wharf, some 5.8 miles from the City of London and 7.7 miles from the centre of tourist London. This redeveloped part of London links to the capital via the mono-rail system known as the DLR. However transport links by road are good and its an easy journey to most places by taxi or car. The train ride into central London takes around 35 minutes. When the London Olympics take place in 2012 they will also be in East London less than 4 miles from this location to the North. Although the very immediate vicinity has little to offer the surrounding areas are far more lively with various amenities. The hotel is just on the North side of the River Thames while nearby on the south side are the Millennium Dome (1.9 miles), Royal Observatory Greenwich (2.7 miles), National Maritime Museum (2.7 miles) and Cutty Sark ship (2.8 miles). The 60 acre Galleons Reach shopping park, opened in 2003, is just 1.3 miles away on the North East corner of the airport. The nearest crossing point on the Thames is the Woolwich Ferry, which is a free service for pedestrians and vehicles and runs from early morning till evening. The alternative is the Blackwall Tunnel which is open 24 hours.
