Airport Parking

Posts Tagged ‘Piccadilly Line’

We are staying at comfoprt inn at Prince square. We have never been to London and have no idea what to expext as far as transportation..

Take the Paddington Express to Paddington, change to the Circle Line tube and get off at Bayswater station and if your luggage is on wheels, then you can walk the rest of the way, north (right) on Queensway to the first corner, left into Moscow Road, right at the end (Hereford Road), and the hotel is just on the right the second street along. Or you can get a cab from Paddington Station.

There’s an alternative walking route past Whiteley’s suggested here, but it’s heavily foot trafficked and you will suffer for it. Also, what they say about the cab fare being £30 from Heathrow is baloney. More like £50-60. The Paddington Express train will cost you £15 per person. A cheaper alternative is Heathrow Connect, which takes a little bit longer because it makes stops along the way, but only costs £6.90 per person.

The other people here are wrong - they do not know where your hotel is - taking the Piccadilly Line is going to put you on the wrong side of Hyde Park, it’s going to take you an hour to get to Hyde Park Corner with all the stops and then you’re going to have to get a taxi across the park which is impossible to hail one down at Hyde Park Corner because they can’t pull over. The Paddington Express is 15 minutes, the tube train to Bayswater is 3 minutes and the walk from Bayswater is 10-15 minutes (cab from Bayswater maybe 5 minutes, tops).

I ll be in London in a few weeks and i m wondering what the cheapest and easiest way would be. I am going to Bayswater (near Hyde Park) and we ll be 3 people so i dont think the underground or the train will be the best solution.

the underground is the cheapest … £4 cash fare but cheaper if you get an Oyster card http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/faresandtickets/visitortickets/5185.aspx … the Oyster card will be useful for your time in London as well … to get from Heathrow to Bayswater take the Piccadilly line to Earls Court and change onto the District line (destination Edgware Road) to Bayswater

however the Heathrow Express train https://www.heathrowexpress.com/index.asp?SID={E391D218-7D7E-48C8-BFFB-17E95DD3F93B} comes into Paddington station which is very near Bayswater so it would be by far the quickest and easiest

I’m not good at directions&want to make fewer interchanges. I’ve 2 luggages to carry with.
(1) How to get to Alderbury of Salisbury, U.K. from Cambridge university ?
Cambridge-(by First Capital Connect Train)-Kings Cross–(by Underground)-London Waterloo–(by Southwest Train) –Salisbury
or Cambridge(Madingley Rd P&R)"–(by National Express-(by bus No.JL717))-interchange at "London, Heathrow airport, Central bus station" , take another bus No. SH032 -"Salisbury,Endless Street bus station, Wiltshire".
(2) From Salisbury to London Heathrow airport?
(a)Salisbury–(by Southwest Train)-LondonWaterloo train station–interchange at london waterloo tube–London–Green Park tube (by Jubliee line)-interchange at Green Park–(by Piccadilly line)-London heathrow Airport
(b)By train:
Salisbury–(by Train)–Waterloo train station–find Paddington train station(I don’tknowwhere)–(by Heathrow Express)-Lond.heathr.Airp.
(c)Salisbury-(By NationalExpress.)–Lond.Heath.airport.
Any idea?
Someone told me to go by "National Express", is it a good way?
Is the luggage storage place located outside the bus above the wheels?,
When i get off the coach, will the driver remember to open the luggage storage cover for me to take back my luggage -(if i get off the bus, i am afraid the driver will drive away because not every passengers has luggages.)-(maybe I sit far away from the driver, i cannot talk to him at the moment i get off the coach at another door to remind him to let me take back my belongings first. (i assume that one would get off the coach at another door.)
Please forgive me for my silly questions, for i’ve never gone by coach in the uk.
In past travelling experience in package tour, the luggage storage place is located outside the travel coach.
Thanks

Hire a car. Probably be cheaper and less hassle.
If you are unsure of anything just ask the guy at the train station and there are information points at all the mainline stations.

I am flying in to Heathrow in london on oct 3 and need to use public transportation to get to this address: Cholmeley Park, London, N6
The closest tube station is archway, so I was wondering what the best way to do this would be….

Thanks

Take the Piccadilly Line to Kings Cross station, change onto the Northern Line and get off at Archway.

All Heathrow terminals are served by the Piccadilly line, each station is well sign posted from the arrivals hall.

Here’s a tube map to. Heathrow is bottom left and Archway is top right.
