Description: The Commodore Hotel London is situated close
to Hyde Park in a small section of Bayswater known as Lancaster gate. Perhaps
bet known as the area where the football association has its headquarters. Less
than half a mile away is the Paddington train station which has a direct service
to Heathrow Airport called the
Heathrow
Express and a slower service called the Heathrow Connect. Nearest major
shopping can be found at Queensway (0.3 miles) and the Whitley's centre with
Notting Hill (0.7 miles) and Kensington High Street (0.9 miles) just beyond
that. Less than a mile in the opposite direction finds Marble Arch which is home
to Speakers Corner and marks the start of both Edgware Road and Oxford Street, 2
very busy shopping areas. Hyde Park is just 150 yards south of the hotel and
offers large open spaces with many activities such as horse riding and boating.
Lancaster Gate itself is relatively quiet with no major traffic flows unlike the
nearby A40 Bayswater Road which is main arterial route into and out of London.
Although classed as a central London area its actually some 2 miles from the
most central areas around Piccadilly Circus. However many visitors choose this
area for its good transport links and slightly lower rates than the most central
districts.
