    If you want to plan journeys in London, you can use http://www.tfl.gov.uk/
    Just put in the postcode of the hotel and Euston station and it will give you travel and walking directions.

    You would get the Northern line tube from Euston to London Bridge station (15 min journey) and then it is a about a half mile (15-20 min) walk from there to the hotel. You can go on googlemaps and print out a walking map (click on the get directions and put in the two poitns and click on the walking man tab)

    If you are going in a party of four (as mentioned in your other thread regarding your trip to the capital), then it won't be out of the (financial) question to get a cab.


    Save you the walk with bags, getting lost etc etc.

    I was thinking about that but do not have a clue on london taxi prices how much approx would it cost from euston to tower bridge hotel . As opposed to tube and 15 min walk

    Euston Station to Tower Bridge is a 4 mile journey and here is the link showing taxi fares: Depending on the time of day and traffic, it will cost between £15-£22 for the journey.

    Here are the tube fares:

    With Oyster card (£5 refundable deposit and top up as required) it would cost £2.20 per adult for the tube journey or you can buy an off peak Travelcard for £8.90 per adult which would give unlimited travel on the day in zone1-2. If the children don't have a zip photo oyster card (not recommended for the short time you are in London as it is a £10 non refundable fee per card and then you top up) it would be best to buy a daily off peak travel card for unlimited use on buses, tubes and overground in zone 1-2 which will cost £3.60 per teen. These fares are cheaper if you have a railcard.

    You won't be able to check into your hotel until after 2pm, so it may be a waste of time to go direct to your hotel from Euston if you arrive a lot earlier than the check in time, unless they offer a left lugguage facility (some PIs don't have lugguage storage).
