Science Museum Tours

Original engineering model of Sputnik at the Cosmonaut exhibition. Apparently Korolev dictated that Sputnik be elegant as it would one day be on display.

The Magnificent London Science Museum! What a wonderful plethora of historical items and concepts to browse and peruse during a nice afternoon. Lots of great exhibits, ranging from early car engines, radios and phones to Harrier jump jets and lunar modules. You can trace the development of science from its humble beginnings to today, with that great British influence. There are lots of great activities for the kids, too. Free entry! Also, look for the ice cream van out front for a little added treat - those English cornetts are to die for!
The Astronaut Suit

You'll soon find out why this London City Centre display of scientific achievements is visited by many travelers. If you're looking for more to see and do here, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Trafalgar Square are in this area as well. They won't take long to get to from Science Museum.

Great hospitality staff. Room is very clean and bed is extremely comfortable. The location is super convenient. 4 train lines, directly to the airport and to the city center. Also, there is bus terminal in 3 minutes so you will not worry with the transportation at all. I come back to this hotel every time I go London!
