Getting there
ExCeL Exhibition Centre in London is well connected, providing a number of transportation options for exhibitors and visitors. The Docklands Light Railway presents an easy way to get to the fair, as does a direct national railway service from Richmond. ExCeL also features parking for more than 4,000 cars.
For those arriving from further abroad, London City Aiport (offering a number of daily European flights) is located near to ExCeL.
More detailed travel information is located at the LIWSF website (http://www.londonwinefair.com)
Where to stay
The official supplier for hotels and accommodation for the fair is Baxter Hoare, which offers rooms at hotels such as Novotel at ExCeL and the Crown Plaza London Docklands. An interesting option from Baxter Hoare is the Sunborn Yacht Club, while more affordable options such as the Travel Lodge at London City Airport are also available. It is recommended that visitors book early, as demand for all accommodation near to ExCeL will be high.
Given the exhibition’s convenient transport links, however, the vast selection of hotels in London provides no shortage of alternatives.
