Travel in London

If you plan to use the underground while at the meeting, it will be cost effective to obtain an Oyster card on arrival.  Costs for people using Oyster cards are significantly less than when using a paper ticket. More information can be found on the Transport for London web page.

If you prefer a hotel in a more central location you will find the Imperial Group Hotels near Russel Square are reasonably priced.  Please note that these have free internet connections in the lobby - with the exception of County Hotel, which does not have internet access.  A list of hotels local to the Mile End Campus is maintained centrally by college: (Local Hotels).
