Driving
If you decide that you want to drive into the city there there are a few things you will need to consider. Firstly London is very busy and it can take upwards of 2 hours o get from any M25 junction to the heart of the city. Also, to cut that number of drivers in the center of London visitors are now required to pay a 'Congestion Charge' (Currently £8). This congestion charge is only in opperation between Monday and Friday from 7am to 6pm. Parking in london is also very expensive for any length of time.
A better idea would be to travel on public transport or if you need to drive then park up in outer london and then get the tube train to blackfriers.
Finding the venue and boat...
Once your in London it is easy to find your way to the Hotel and convention center. RBW 2008 is located at the Royal National Hotel near Russel Square and Euston Tube stations. The best way for you to plan your journey would be to use a online map service such at google maps or multimap. These will be able to plan your jouney from the tube station to the reception desk of the hotel. Transport for London also offer a easy to use journey planner that can be found below, this will give you times, costs, and all the details to get from A to B.
