- Make your way to Paddington Station. You can use the Underground (Subway/Metro),
Paddington is on the Circle, District, Hammersmith & City and Bakerloo
Lines.
From Heathrow airport you can catch the Heathrow Express directly to Paddington,
it takes about 15 minutes, it is quite expensive but you can save a little
by buying your ticket online.
It is a lot cheaper but a lot slower to take the Underground, catch the Piccadilly
Line from Heathrow to Earl's Court, then change to the District Line towards Edgeware Road to get to Paddington.
From Gatwick airport you can catch either the Gatwick Express or a local
train to London Victoria Station. The Gatwick Express is more expensive and
a little quicker. You can then take the Underground to Paddington, the Circle
Line (west bound) is the simplest route.
If you arrive in London by Eurostar Train you will come in to St Pancras Station,
catch the Circle or Hammersmith & City Underground lines to get to Paddington.
