How far is LHR from the Center of London? ?

Question

and what is the best way to get there? will it be expensive?

Answer 1

Use the London Underground for the most cost effecient way to get there. It's about 20 mins or so if I remember right... :) And no it's not that expensive at all about £5 return, something like that.

Answer 2

Yes, their is a direct route on the tube.  No biggie.  20-30 mins.  

Answer 3

As a distance it is about 12 miles - the best way to get there is to use the underground - trains serve all terminals at Heathrow and run very frequently during the day (like every 2-3 minutes at peak times) and take around 45 minutes to central London - the underground is linked to all areas of London so just by changing trains you can get almost every where.  it is not expensive.

Answer 4

It's 15 miles west of Central London.

The cheapest way would be the Piccadilly Line underground - takes around 40-60 minutes depending on where exactly in central London you're going to. If you're paying cash, the adult fare is £4 at any time, if you have an Oyster card then it's £3.50 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Friday and £2 at all other times including public holidays.

The quickest way is the Heathrow Express train to Paddington station in the west of central London. Trains run every 15 minutes and take 15 minutes to Paddington. Single adult ticket £14.50 when bought online, £15.50 bought at the ticket office, £18.50 when bought on the train.  

Answer 5

30 minutes

Answer 6

The underground Piccadilly Line is the cheapest option, but the previous times are a bit optimistic. The following times are from the Transport For London website.

-----------

From LHR underground station (terminals 1-2-3) transit times are

Earl's Court (34 minutes)

King's Cross/ St.Pancras (54 minutes)

-----------

Earl's Court is the beginning of the central London (zone #1) , and King's Cross/St. Pancras is the other end.

-----------

The train cars on the Piccadilly Line were especially designed to handle luggage from traveller's from the airport. This means that there is more floor space, but there is not luggage racks. People tend to sit on the luggage when the train gets very crowded. Pack accordingly.
