Time for a break
There’s far too much to see in Greenwich to only stay for one day. Make it a mini-break to really experience everything Greenwich has to offer. It’s also a great place to base yourself for a London holiday with comfortable and affordable accommodation eight minutes from London Bridge, with excellent transport links within the capital and to the rest of the country.
