Next to the Shangrila Hotel there is an elevator all the way up to the top of the Shard where you can eat and drink with a view.

Parks & Nature

The park is a 2 minute walk from the flat. It is a great park to have a nice walk as it isn't that biggest. It has a nice Zoo which is great for family outings. The river side of the Park has a great view onto Albert Bridge Road, which is very nicely lit up at night. The sun also sets behind it, worth the view if you can catch it.

Great huge Park in the center of London. It has a nice Lake in the middle of it where you can hire boats in the summer.

Around 30-40 minutes from the flat (Bus 49, 345 to South Kensington and then Piccadilly Line Tube to Hyde Park Corner). Worth a visit.
