Introduction: Located between the
shopping district of Queensway and the major rail station at
Paddington is the
Miller's Residence Hotel. This area is considered central London although its
some 2 miles from the main central areas. The great thing for this location is
the cheaper rates generally for accommodation while being surrounded by plenty
of amenities, shops and restaurants in what is a mainly residential area.
Paddington station at just over half a mile way is the terminating station
for the
Heathrow Express and Connect services from
Heathrow Airport. Westbourne
Grove itself has some small high street type shops (includes ethnic restaurants
and some bars) but it leads down to the chic
and village like Notting Hill district just under half a mile from the hotel. A
must visit in the area is Portobello Road Antiques Market 1/3rd of a mile away.
Slightly further at 0.4 miles to the south is
Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens.
Here you will find the Diana memorial Fountain, a central Lake with boating in
the summer, riding tracks and in its south west corner Kensington palace (former
home of Diana Princess of Wales). This area is also home to the annual
Notting
Hill carnival which is centred on Ladbroke Grove.
