hmmm Me personally..I would choose either of the ones near to Gloucester Road and South Kensington, simply because these will give you a bigger variety of tube lines close by (Circle, District and Piccadilly) whereas Bayswater and Queensway are only on the central line. The tube is the nuts for getting round London thumbs up!
But you would still find it real easy to get around from any of those places.nod
Being nearer to Hyde Park and Oxford St. might be good thou dancing jig

I don't know if that helps confused I am a South London lad woot! and do most of my travelling through Victoria, and once you are on the underground, you can just pop up wherever you like nod

All the places look good nod

biggrin
