The Tower of London
In just 30 minutes by bus you can reach the Tower of London. A visit to this monument is a reminder of the macabre reputation of this former prison, where torture and executions took place on a regular basis.
Saint Paul's Cathedral
Discover the most important religious building in the capital. Located in the City, the cathedral is a landmark for all Londoners and tourists, thanks to its dome. You can climb up to the Cathedral for a panoramic view of London. From our serviced residence It takes around 20 minutes by bus or a 40 minutes walk to reach the Cathedral.
Tower Bridge
Not far from the Cathedral, Tower Bridge is an iconic bascule bridge in London. Linking the north and south banks of the Thames, it is crossed by many pedestrians and vehicles every day. The bravest will dare to walk on the glass footbridge, more than 42 metres above the ground.
Palace of Westminster and Big Ben
Climb aboard the bus, then take the metro to the Palace of Westminster, home of the British Parliament, in 40 minutes. Visiting London without passing in front of this palace and its famous Clock Tower with Big Ben would be like going to Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower.
