Where to book a hotel in London? Pimlico Area

In a small residential area called Pimlico is known above all for the wide choice of small London hotels in Pimlico and its impressive Regency architecture. Most of the residential buildings of Pimlico in London were designed by the architect/builder Thomas Cubitt, whose statue can be seen in the area.

Amongs the famous residents we can mention W. Churchill, W.A. Mozart, Laurence Olivier, Laura Ashley and many others. Pimlico still has a kind of village atmosphere with its small and friendly shops and is also a nice place to stop for lunch. I suggest Pimlico to sleep and you can find many hotels in London to book a room. Enjoy your stay in London.
