Where to stay for football in London
London is a network problem, not a stadium-hotel problem. Choose a central transport base that fits the club and your arrival station; sleeping beside one ground can make the rest of the weekend harder.
King's Cross & Bloomsbury
€€€A useful rail and Tube hub with more evening options than most stadium districts.
- To the stadium
- Strong north-London and cross-city connections
- Best for
- Arsenal or Spurs plus sightseeing
Liverpool Street & the City
€€Often calmer at weekends while remaining connected to central and east-London routes.
- To the stadium
- Good east-London and Overground connections
- Best for
- West Ham or multi-club weekends
Victoria & Westminster
€€€Good for travellers arriving at Victoria and for combining football with central London.
- To the stadium
- Useful south/west connections; route depends on club
- Best for
- Chelsea, Palace or a short city break

Getting around
London's grounds use a mix of Underground and National Rail; Selhurst Park has no Tube station, so always check the route for the specific club and travel early.
