    depending on which way you come , either m40 or m1, i would suggest m40 is better option , less traffic in general. the closer to town you get the more difficult it will be to park. the nearest underground stations are marble arch and bond street. there is an underground carpark in park lane very close to the to grosvenor square which is not inside the congestion charge zone , but be very careful not to stray if you decide to use that one. hillingdon might be a good station for you , easy to find from the a 40, good luck

    Hi

    Thanks for the replies
    Just to clarify the above, which would be the closest tube station to The US Embassy. How easy would it be for me to drive to the underground car park in park lane,

    from the A40 westway take the paddington slip then take the first left bishops bridge road over bishops bridge to harrow road second exit from roundabout under the flyover, turn right at traffic lights onto edgware road you will see the big red c congestion charge signs on side roads on either side go straight on to marble arch and leave by park lane grosvenor square is on the left off of upper brook street ,the underground car park is on the right hand side of park lane about half way downleave the car park and go back up edgware road and harrow to return

    DONT DRIVE INTO A ROAD WITH A RED C PAINTED ON THE ROAD OR YOU WILL BE CHARGED

    BEST OF LUCK

    just had another look ,,you can get into the underground carpark via cumberland gate from marble arch
    speed is good
