Is Bond street undergound close enough to where you need to go? Waterloo and Bond street have lift access.

Bond Street station is a fair walk from Marylebone (I'd estimate 15mins for me, at a brisk pace) And, it's uphill in that direction.

If the OP doesn't want to use escalators at all, the direct Waterloo - Marylebone route by tube is out.

For "want", read "afraid". Falling forward, going down, emergency button pressed, folk walking over me. 

You could (on the way there) get the lift down at Waterloo, using either the jubilee line to Baker Street, and then the Bakerloo 1 stop to Marylebone (its a very short switch and no stairs) or the bakerloo all the way from Waterloo to Marylebone (I can't think where the lifts are at Waterloo that would take you to the Bakerloo line platforms, so it might be a bit of a walk, if they're closer to the Jubilee line) and the escalator up at Marylebone... on the way home, you'd need to get the bus back to Waterloo to avoid down escalators.

I'd also recommend the "TFL Go" app for journey planning in London.

@ Emmia, point taken, but have you ever experienced a central London bus at those times of day as a disabled pensioner? It’ll likely be busy, there’ll be no one offer you a seat, it’s uncomfortable. A taxi is door to door, perhaps 15 minutes v nearly an hour on buses, to include walking time, changes. OPs choice

As I'm neither disabled, nor a pensioner.... no.

I'd probably taxi if I was the OP, but it will be £20+ each way for the fare.

Edit: the OP specifically asked about the bus, not a taxi.

Hello Copter,

Where does your journey start? (before Waterloo?). If you can come in to Victoria, for example, rather than Waterloo, then there's a direct bus from Victoria to Marylebone Station - number 2 bus - which stops right outside Marylebone Station

When you board the 139 at Waterloo don't ask the driver to tell you which stop. Last time I was on a London bus the stops were announced over the bus system. 

The bus turns right out of Oxford Street into Baker Street beside Selfridges. Heads up Baker Street, crosses the Marylebone Road (the main road you mentioned) then get off at the next stop opposite Baker Street Station.

Get off the bus, turn right then first left into Melcombe Street. Keep going straight and you will come to Marylebone Station.

Getting back to the OP's question.... you need to get off at 'Baker Street Station'.  The previous stop is 'York Street'.

After the 'York Street' stop the bus will pass a McDonalds (on the right) a Post Office (at 111 Baker Street) and Robert Dyas (on the left), cross the Marylebone Road (a major 4-lane road) and stop at Subway (the shop - not a tube station)!

Ok, then clearly Waterloo is your best bet!

Personally I would suggest you just get the Bakerloo Line from Waterloo to Marylebone.

London Underground staff can accompany you and your wife from ticket hall to platform at Waterloo and from Platform to ticket hall at Marylebone. This is a "turn up and go" service, i.e. you get to Waterloo and then ask the staff there to assist (at the Underground Station - not the National Rail staff). See here:

Even with assistance, this will involve stairs at Marylebone. I think bus or taxi are better options here.

Posted this by mistake on your original thread.

Number 211 from Waterloo to Victoria then number 2 from Victoria to Marylebone.
