    The appartment was very comfortable and a brilliant location. Hammersmith is only 40 minutes from Heathrow on Picadilly Line and only 15 minutes from Picadilly Circus, Oxford St, Regent Street, the Palace etc. There are many local restaurants and pubs. Hammersmith station has lifts to all levels, which is really important if you have heavy luggage, be careful with travel in London as many stations only have stairs; the 'tube' map fortunately identifies those with lifts. There are several really old ie 16th century pubs along the river at Hammersmith well worth a visit. We have visited London many times, stating in different places, but Hammersmith around King Street near the station was the most convenient.

    Hammersmith is a great base to explore London and the main tourist sites. It has a direct train link via the Piccadilly line to Heathrow and central London and is a short bus ride (no9) to areas like Kensington, Knightsbridge and Piccadilly Circus. The area itself is family friendly with many affordable restaurants and hotels and a very lively high street where one can explore and get a flavour of day to day life in a local area.

Hammersmith Tube station is actually two stations across the road from each other. The terminus station is served by the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines. The other station connected to the Broadway Shopping Centre. This is served by the Piccadilly and District lines.

The stations are quite busy but there are staff available to help if you are not sure. In addition there is a bus station here and you can get buses from here to many parts of west London.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at [HamersmithPremier Inn and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality that lasted throughout my entire stay.

The room I stayed in, comfortable, and a stunning view of the city . The bed was incredibly cozy, ensuring a restful night's sleep,

Amazing show, London is my favourite place. Never short of something to do.

Venue has Freddie Mercury history also.

Plenty of fine places to wine and dine. 👍

Queen had not had a gig since the 1970s.

Hammersmith is full of character and a must for anyone who liked lots of activity!

Highly reccomended. 👍

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Chef made us special halal chicken for dinner and halal sausages for breakfast.

They even guided us with taxis and prices. They went out of the way to hell us in any way.

Room was very comfortable and clean. I will definitely come back again.

On a recent visit to London, my friends and I used the tube from Earls Court to Hammersmith. While at Hammersmith station we used the public toilets. The woman in charge of the Ladies toilet is definitely the rudest person we have ever met, and she seriously needs do with a crash course in 'Customer Care Skills'! To get into the toilet area my friend and I put 50 pence each in the machines, but the barrier never opened and the money got lost. I rang the bell for assistance and this 'Loud mouthed' person appeared, shouting at me to stop ringing the bell. i explained what had happened and reluctantly she allowed me in, but would not allow my friend unless she paid more money. While my friends were getting more money another customer with a baby asked where the 'Baby Changing' facilities were? The attendant replied 'we don't have any.' The customer asked where could she go to look after the baby and the attendant replied 'How do i know, your child is not my problem!!' my friend and another customer told the attendant that she was the rudest person they had ever come across, and a male attendant that had just come along agreed with them. He said that's the way she speaks to people every day! Its mind boggling as to how this woman got a job dealing with the public....

I have known Hammersmith since I started school here some 34 years ago. I visited recently and one thing had not changed - King Street. King Street has always been grotty and generally there are some unsavoury characters hanging around so it gives a poor impression of what is a very nice area. Shopping though is pretty poor despite some big name stores and a relatively modern shopping centre over the main tube station so for great shopping catch the tube 5 mins to Wood Lane for Westfield or get a bus - 10 mins or so.

As far as Hammersmith goes almost any direction from King Street is good apart from down Fulham Palace Road which is also grotty.

The Thames is a short walk away and rewards you with a view of the lovely Hammersmith Bridge as well as a number of beautiful and characterful pubs especially on the stretch between Hamersmith bridge and Chiswick where there are also a couple of museums - 7 Hammersmith Grove and William Morris museum (near the back of Latymer School). The River is a lovely place to walk. My choice is the North bank toward Chiswick - you can vist Chiswick House, Hogarth's House and Fullers Brewery and then walk along to lovely Strand on The Green and Kew (cross over Kew Bridge).

For a circular walk head across Barnes Bridge and back on the South side to Hammersmith Bridge - a walk of some 5 miles from Hammersmith station. You can pop into Barnes vilage half way round which is quiant.

If you don't hed for the River then maybe walk around the back streets toward Ravenscourt Park which is nice in itself and the side roads toward here and Goldhawk Road Station are nice with some great pubs. Also heading toward Brook Green is very pleasant.

A great riverside walk, starting 5 mins from Hammersmith tube. The Mall is the start of the riverside towpath on the north bank of the river heading west from Hammersmith Bridge. It features breathtaking views west down the river, delightful historic houses and no fewer than five wonderful pubs (heading west they are the Blue Anchor, the Rutland, the Dove, the Ship and the Black Lion) all of which allow you to sit outside on tables next to the river. Facing south, the walk is a real sun trap in summer. The Blue Anchor dates from 1722, the Dove is a delight (but small) and the Black Lion has the most wonderful garden with a several hundred years old tree in it. Plus this stretch of the river is a section of the university Boat Race. Spectacular sunsets on summer evenings.
