Location

The University of Westminster's Marylebone Campus is close to the junction of Marylebone Road and Baker Street, right opposite Baker Street Underground Station.

This is just 3 stops from the Eurostar Rail Terminal at St. Pancras, and 2 stops from Paddington Station, terminal for the Heathrow Airport Express train. London's other airports - Luton, Stansted, Gatwick and City are also within easy reach by train and London Underground or bus services.

Close to the Campus is Marylebone Village, with its unique blend of boutiques, artisan patisseries, art galleries, delis and bookshops.

Alternatively, a short walk can take you either to the open spaces of Regent’s Park, or to the bustling commercial areas of Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street, one of the world’s most famous shopping districts.

The student rooms are within a tower block with breathtaking views over Central London and Regent's Park, and were recently refurbished. They have single beds, and ensuite facilities with shower. Arranged in groups of 6 rooms on each side of the tower, there is also a shared kitchen.

Please remember these are student rooms, not the Ritz, but quite adequate for a one or two night stay.

Of course you are welcome to stay elsewhere, and this link may help you in your search - but remember we are at the Marylebone Campus! http://HotelMap.com/University_of_Westminster
