Air Travel

There are four airports within an hour’s drive (subject to traffic):

• London City (36 mins)
• Gatwick (1hr 19mins)
• Heathrow (54 mins)
• Luton (1hr 10mins)

A little further afield you will also find Stansted (1 hour and 8 minutes).

You can easily reach central London from all of these airports using public transport too, so for international visitors, the QEII Centre really is easy to reach.

Train Travel

For those traveling by train, Charing Cross station is just 15 minutes away by foot, Victoria is just 16 minutes away by foot and you can walk to Waterloo in around 19 minutes.

Travel by Car

Traveling by car within London is rarely necessary thanks to the excellent Underground and other public transport links. It also comes with a traffic warning. As with many major cities, traffic can significantly increase journey times.

If, however, you’re coming from outside the city by car, you’ll benefit from the fact that London is very (and unsurprisingly!) well connected by motorway with the M1, M2, M3 M4, M11, M20, M23, M25, and M40 all heading near or into the capital.

Do also be aware of toll zones within the city.

Local Travel and Underground Stations

The QEII Centre is easily accessible by Tube.

You’ll find St James’ Park underground station a 6 minute walk away, Westminster Station just 4 minutes on foot and Victoria Station a little further afield (about a 16 minute walk away).

A number of bus routes also service Westminster, making local transport very widely available here.

Nearby Parking

Q-Park Westminster is a 7-minute walk from the QEII center. It can accommodate both cars and vans, but spaces can be limited. 

Parking can be booked in advance.
