Hi there, I am hoping to go to olympia this year but I am not sure which is the best airport to fly into? I'll be flying from Dublin. Also can anyone recommend any nearby hotels that are reasonably priced?? Just need to get an idea of how much the whole trip will cost before i book anything! Thank You!!!
 
Not sure which is the best airport, but I am staying in the Hilton at Kensington, the other Hilton at Olympia was fully booked. I am going Friday evening, and the tickets that I wanted were sold out, I did manage to get a fairly good seat, so I would be quick if I were you. So excited about going, can't wait!!!!!
 
London City is probably the closest - although there is a good rail link from Heathrow into paddington mainline station - at a price! Gatwick trains go into Victoria station - cheaper, but takes a little longer. Don't fall for the name in "London Stansted Airport" It is no where near London!

Olympia itself is out an a remote branch line from Earls Court - have a look at a London underground map. Hotels nearby are probably sold out for most nights now - but you should be able to get something more centrally. Allow about 30 - 45 minutes to get to and from Olympia itself from central London.
 
London Heathrow, then 40 mins on Piccadilly line to Earls Court, then tube to (5 mins) to Olympia. Lots of cheapish hotels at Earls Court - depends on what kind you're after really but lots available there and Kensington. Hope that's helpful :)
