O2 Arena - Travel and Accomodation

Mrs Jellybaby1977, 28 March, 2009 at 17:11 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 3

Afternoon

I've heard that the O2 arena is a nightmare to get to and there is no parking. Is this true?

If it is does anyone have any recommendations as to where to stay please. If I was coming down from the Midlands would the train be better than a car.

Thanks in advance

    There is a car park at the O2, you can pre-book too. We went on the train from Sheffield and stayed at the Holiday Inn Express at Canning Town which was a stop or two away from the O2. There is also a Hi Express at Greenwich. If I was going to the O2 again, it would be the train again and accom in Greenwich or similar.

    There's stacks of parking at the O2, it's chuffing expensive, though.

    nearest hotel is the Holiday Inn Express, which is in north Greenwich, same as the O2 is. Your alternative is to get a hotel in central Greenwich instead where there's a Novotel and an Ibis. You'd then have to drive, bus or taxi it to the O2 as it's not walking distance. Buese are pretty frequent.

    Greenwich itself is lovely (I would say that, I live there!) but North Greenwich where the O2 is is pretty much a wasteground with a big dome on it.

    Thanks AllyDrew - driving and parking at the O2 looks as if its already a no no, as it seems to be sold old.

    Thanks for the hotel advice .
