Have we mentioned that we’re handily a stones-throw from Paddington Station?
This makes our pub with room the best place to base yourself to explore all that London has to offer. Whether it’s taking a selfie with Paddington Bear, a wonder down to Little Venice, or hopping on a bus to see the famous sites of London, it’s all at your fingertips.
There is a bronze statue of our favourite bear at Paddington Station, along with a Paddington bench or two to sit and take photographs on. This is where he first arrived from Peru, carrying a small suitcase and marmalade sandwiches. The statue is the work of British sculptor Marcus Cornish and was unveiled in 2000.
A combination of functionality and art, the Rolling Bridge and Fan Bridge are situated in the redeveloped Paddington Basin. These innovative bridges allow boats to pass before returning to pedestrian pathways.
Just behind the main station you will find the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union canal at Little Venice. This oasis of calm and tranquility is a contrast to the nearby busy roads. Several operators offer boat trips that go to Regents Park or the bustling Camden Market.
Established in 1979, this small theatre hosts the long-running NewsRevue. The zany live comedy show runs every Thursday – Sunday.
