London
2012 reminded the world of the excitement that our capital city can generate. And the spotlight continues to shine on London in 2013
In 2012 the Olympic and Paralympic Games

Welcome to

transformed Londons landscape and the world united in celebration as we welcomed all to the Greatest Show on Earth. The Games accelerated infrastructure investment across the capital, which has resulted in a wider choice of world-class attractions and facilities for leisure visitors and event planners alike. London showed the world the warm welcome that awaits; the city has never been easier to navigate and explore, and is open for business. The billions of pounds invested in the city has seen the construction of more than 10,000 additional hotel rooms, a rejuvenated Underground transport network, which celebrates 150 years in 2013, and the upcoming transformation of Olympic Games venues to huge arenas perfect for conferences and events.

The 250-acre former Olympic Park will reopen to the public in July 2013, with a new weekend festival of cycling, RideLondon, taking place 3-4 August. The former athletes village will be transformed into the East Village neighbourhood, providing residents with a space equivalent to the size of St Jamess Park, boasting green spaces, shops and community facilities. The Copper Box (or the Box that Rocked, as it was affectionately dubbed during the Olympics) will reopen in 2013 to become the third-largest arena in London, with 7,500 seats. It will host concerts, exhibitions, conferences and sporting events and is expected to attract 400,000 visitors a year. And upcoming for event planners in 2014, the Orbit Tower and now world-famous Aquatics Centre will become available for meetings and events. Elsewhere, Kings Cross station has doubled itscapacity, following the opening of a new 550million western concourse, while in the vibrant Shoreditch area in east London, Tech City has grown into a business destination that can now compete with San Franciscos Silicon Valley for innovation and investment.

World-class cultural life

London is recognised as a world-leading centre of talent and creativity, with an ever-changing variety of events, plus vibrant fashion and shopping, nightlife and cultural scenes. Some of the worlds brightest minds can be found in London, making it easier to book leading speakers, offer quality content and attract more delegates. Centres of excellence associated with pioneers such as Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Michael Faraday, Alexander Fleming and Sir Isaac Newton are regularly used today as reception and meeting venues, including the Royal Society of Medicine and Savoy Place (the Institution of Engineering and Technology). London is easily accessible (more than 50 countries are within a three-hour flight), with options to suit any budget, from free attractions to luxury shopping, and an unrivalled choice of meeting venues and expert event services, making it the ideal destination for leisure and business visitors. Hosting the Greatest Show on Earth the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games has showcased the citys extensive leisure and event capabilities. In 2013, London will build on its reputation as a world-class visitor, business and event destination. Use this London Official Guide 2013 to help your clients enjoy the best of Londons accommodation, dining, attractions and shopping, and to plan successful and memorable events in the capital.

Whats new in London?

The roar of the Olympic cheer will reverberate around London for years to come. London impressed the world with its winning mix of city-wide celebrations, successful event delivery, starattractions, classy hotels and well-run public transport
Hotels
In 2012, the number of available hotel rooms in the capital exceeded 102,000. Openings of iconic properties have included the W Hotel, the luxury Bulgari in Knightsbridge and Aloft London ExCeL , which have all added to the cityscape. Directly opposite Wembley Stadium, the 361-room Hilton London Wembley opened its doors in July 2012. Visitors can enjoy an afternoon tea with stunning views at the Sky Bar & Roof Terrace, while event planners have a 700-capacity space only 20 minutes from central London. In September 2012, D&D London opened its debut 80-room South Place Hotel, in Moorgate, offering two restaurants and three bars, including a rooftop terrace and a secret garden atrium on the first floor. Also, a second InterContinental London opened in Westminster, offering 254 rooms plus meeting facilities, to complement itsexisting property on Park Lane. Knightsbridge received another luxury hotel in November as The Wellesley opened its 36-suite property, and Caf Royal reopened as a hotel in December 2012. Spanish hotel operator Sol Meli has taken a foothold in London with its Sir Norman Foster-designed ME London, on the site of the former BBC Marconi building in Aldwych. This landmark property has a rooftop terrace bar with 180-degree views of London as well as ascreening room and events space.

The 80-room South Place Hotel in Moorgate opened in September 2012

The city has long been a world-class business

and leisure destination offering exceptional choice and value for money. Now, this multicultural capital thats easy to visit and meet in and impossible to forget, also offers the memories of Olympic achievements against a backdrop of iconic landmarks, myriad new hotels, great shopping, culinary expertise and thewarmest of welcomes. The Games prompted a number of major development and construction projects from shopping centres to hotels to a major improvement of the Underground transport network allowing future London visitors to reap the benefits. This new legacy and infrastructure now enhances the visitor experience, particularly in the redevelopment of the east of the city.

Shopping
Westfield Stratford City attracted 5.5 million shoppers during the Olympics. The largest urban shopping centre in Europe boasts 300 shops, featuring well-known high-street brands such as Miss Sixty, Calvin Klein and John Lewis, plus more than 50 places to dine. Westfield Stratford City also has a 17-screen Vue Cinema and a 65,000sqft Aspers casino, with views overlooking the Olympic Park. Meanwhile Westfield London in Shepherds Bush, in the west of the city, continues to be a popular and stylish shopping experience.

Shard at London Bridge, including restaurants,

New icons are now part of the skyline, like the

offices, apartments and a new Shangri-La Hotel opening in 2013. The 2012 Olympic venue the Copper Box will reopen in July 2013 as the third-largest arena in London, with 7,500 seats. And London will build on the success of the 2012 Olympic Games by continuing to showcase world-class events.

Recent additions to the citys 40,000 shops are found in One New Change shopping centre, opposite St Pauls Cathedral. High-street store openings across the capital include Juicy Couture on Regent Street, Ted Baker on Brompton Road, Jo Malone on King Street and Coast on Oxford Street.
The West End and Covent Garden offer an

ever-changing retail experience with new shop openings throughout the year. London is eagerly anticipating developments such as Park House the largest retail development planned for Oxford Street in over 40 years.

Londons wealth of markets are also great to explore for a bargain. Camden, Notting Hill and Spitalfields are always worth a visit, with a wide range of new stalls and offerings; Greenwich Market is superb for fashion and original collectables; and to see one of the prettiest streets in London, head to the flower market on Columbia Road on a Sunday morning.

Transport
An investment of 20 billion has upgraded the London Underground system, making it one of the safest and most efficient city-centre transport systems in the world. An 80 million investment to improve the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) network has been spent on line extensions, new stations and 55 new railcars to boost capacity. Stratford, the main gateway station to the Olympic Park, also received investment to boost its capacity.

By 2016, the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park will host up to 2,000 events each year. The southern end will have a real focus on sport and entertainment and include areas such as a 2,000sqm event lawn. In total, theres potential for spaces of up to 60,000 capacity across the park. These include the 3,500-seat Aquatics Centre, which can be transformed into a dry venue courtesy of rising floors that reduce the depth ofwater in the pool. The Orbit Tower next to the stadium will host up to 300 people at a time on its viewing platforms. Come and explore London in 2013.

Tickets to travel

Emirates Air Line

Single tickets are available at ticket machines; however, its almost always cheaper to get an Oyster card and pay as you go. Your clients can also purchase single tickets and Travelcards in advance at
tfl.gov.uk/visitorshop

Available in 19 languages, Journey Planner is auseful tool that tells you the best routes to and from specific locations, by rail, Tube, bus or on foot. See tfl.gov.uk/journeyplanner For further information on Londons attractions, and to plan your own itineraries online, go to
visitlondon.com/explorer

Taxis

Oyster cards Oyster is Londons travel smartcard and is the easiest and cheapest way to pay to travel around London, whether your clients are using Tube, bus, tram, DLR, London Overground, Emirates Air Line or National Rail services. Ticket types Oyster can store season tickets (Travelcards and Bus & Tram Passes) as well as pay-asyou-go credit for single journeys. Cards are reusable. When a Travelcard or Bus & Tram Pass expires, or the pay-as-you-go credit is getting low, your clients can add another season ticket or top up their credit at over 4,000 outlets in London. With pay-as-yougo, your clients can travel as many times as they like in a day and the daily price cap means that they will never pay more than the price of a Day Travelcard. Where to buy Your clients can save time by getting an Oyster card before they arrive in London at visitlondon.com/oyster or get one when they arrive from Tube or selected National Rail stations. To pre-purchase Oyster cards for groups of more than 50 delegates, contact London & Partners at eventsolutions@londonandpartners.com. Please allow at least two months between request and delegates arriving in London. Using Oyster To ensure they pay the correct fare on Tube, DLR, London Overground and National Rail services, your clients must always touch in on the yellow card reader at the start of their journey and touch out at the end. On buses and trams they only need to touch in at the start. For further information about Oyster, including fares and using Oyster on River Services, Emirates Air Line and National Rail, go to tfl.gov.uk/tickets

Underground

There are 11 colour-coded Tube lines. Most operate from 05.00 to 00.30 Mon-Sat, and from 07.30 to 23.30 on Sun. Its cheaper and less crowded to avoid the rush hour and travel after 09.30 on weekdays. The network is divided into nine zones with different fare structures. Before your journey always check whether there are any planned engineering works, especially at weekends. Call +44 (0)843 222 1234.
tfl.gov.uk/tube

Londons famous black cabs offer a safe, reliable door-to-door service. Taxis can be hailed on the street when the yellow taxi light is on and at designated taxi ranks. Fares are regulated, and all drivers and vehicles are licensed by Transport for London. All taxis are fitted with a wheelchair ramp and many have other accessibility features so ask the driver if you need to use these. All taxis and minicabs carry assistance dogs at no extra cost.
tfl.gov.uk/pco

Minicabs

Buses

Some routes are especially good for sightseeing, such as 8 and 11, and services 9 and 15 use heritage Routemasters (old-style red double deckers) during the day. Most bus services operate from 05.00 to 00.30 daily, with many routes operating 24-hour services. Tickets must be purchased before boarding a bus in central London. They are available from ticket machines at bus stops and cost 2.30; visitors may find it easier and cheaper to use an Oyster card at 1.35 per bus journey.
tfl.gov.uk/buses

All minicabs must be booked with a licensed company by telephone, email or in person at the companies office. Unlike taxis, minicabs cannot be hailed on the street and drivers must not approach passengers directly. Unbooked minicabs are illegal, dangerous and uninsured. When using a minicab remember to always book with a licensed company, ask the driver to confirm your name and destination, sit in the back and carry a mobile phone. To book a minicab, visit tfl.gov.uk/findaride or text CAB to 60835 and the numbers for two local TfL licensed minicab companies will be sent to your mobile phone.

Using this Guide

Get the most out of the 2013 London Guide listings, to create a truly successful trip for your client or a memorable event for any occasion
At London & Partners we have more than 1,200 Partners who work with us to make your clients experience of London unique and inspiring. This guide gives you full directory listings for our London leisure and business tourism Partners. We have listed them here in eight colour-coded categories:

Quality assurance and star ratings

Look for the star rating in the Hotels & Accommodation section of this guide this is the official mark of quality, awarded to accommodation by VisitEngland and the AA. Stars are awarded following annual assessments by trained, impartial assessors. Annual visits are made and, in the case of hotels and guest accommodation, this involves a mystery shop overnight stay at least every other year to thoroughly check out the service, hospitality, food and cleanliness, as well as the standard and comfort of the accommodation. All participating establishments are awarded between one and five stars. The more stars, the higher the quality and range of services and facilities provided. Some properties, eg hotel chains such as Travelodge, have been assessed to ensure they meet minimum standards of cleanliness and maintenance, but are not scored for quality, so no star ratings are awarded. Some properties were awaiting a quality assessment grading at the time of going to print. Gold and Silver awards VisitEngland recognises the top scoring properties at all star ratings by awarding Silver and Gold awards. These are for B&Bs, hotels, self-catering accommodation and serviced apartments that are the best of the best. For fulldetails of VisitEnglands assessment schemes, see visitengland.com/ee

Green Tourism for London scheme

Green Tourism for London is an independently audited green accreditation scheme for Londons tourism businesses. The scheme has three main aims: to help businesses improve their resource and energy management, to improve business efficiency and to help visitors assess the true green credentials of businesses before booking, by giving companies a Bronze, Silver or Gold award. The awards, which are only made after businesses receive a visit from an independent assessor/adviser, recognise businesses that are operating in a sustainable manner, as well as actively promoting public transport, local cultural activities and Londons open spaces. The scheme is owned and run by Green Business UK and is part of the successful national Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS). For more details on the green credentials of London businesses in this scheme and the awards they have earned, please see green-business.co.uk

The Visitor Attraction Quality Assurance Scheme

The broad theme of a visitor attraction can range from pure fun to high culture. It can include historic houses, castles, farm attractions, country parks, museums and theme parks. When looking for places to visit, VisitEnglands Visitor Attraction Quality Assurance Scheme (VAQAS) can help. VAQAS is a national scheme, and all English attractions are able to take part. The scheme offers a quality assessment on all areas of the attraction that impact on the quality of the visitor experience. The assessment is an annual visit at any time when the attraction is open to the public, by an experienced quality assurance assessor. The assessor will experience all aspects of the attractions, from initial phone enquiries to departure. They will sample all facilities and activities, such as guided tours, rides, or film shows, as well as catering, retail and toilet facilities. Meeting the VAQAS standard can be achieved by all well-run attractions. All attractions that meet the standard receive the accreditation of Quality Assured Visitor Attraction.
