Introduction:
The Express by Holiday Inn Victoria retains its 19th century Georgian style exterior.
This is a central location close to
Victoria mainline rail station which has a direct train service to Gatwick
Airport, the Gatwick Express. Good transport links from this area will enable
you to explore all of London by either bus, taxi or tube. There are some local
shops and amenities in the immediate surrounding area (Lupus Street and Vauxhall
Bridge Road) while a little further on
finds great shopping areas such as Victoria Street (0.5 miles),
Kings Road, Chelsea
(0.9 miles), Bond Street (1.4 miles) and Knightsbridge (1.3 miles). This part of
Victoria is called Pimlico and is an area very popular with budget/tourist class
hotels. Many of the houses along Belgrave Road and surrounding roads are
Georgian and Victorian properties that have been converted into hotels for the
budget accommodation sector. The Road itself has little on it part from houses
and hotels so to enjoy London and its nightlife you will either take a short
taxi ride or walk towards Victoria Street and the Station which is where
amenities begin to the North, or towards Sloane Square 0.8 miles to the West. Nearest attractions include

Houses of
Parliament (0.8 miles),
