Let's take a look at the neighborhood around our hotel! The Portrait Gallery, directly south from the W Hotel.
This is Chinatown...Gerrard Street. Notice the Will and Kate banner from their marriage two weeks prior.
The white bus went up on a curb and almost clipped the stoplight, but it really doesn't come across that way in this photo.
The Queen's Theater at the corner of Shaftesbury and Wardour.
We walked a few blocks east on Shaftesbury and came across this place - St James Tavern. Lucky for us, it was dinnertime and this place looked good.
Another night, we sat at a different spot and at about dusk, we saw the bouncer (in yellow jacket) talking to these interesting characters.
He let them in.
They got the place a'Buzzin!
As is always the case, it wasn't long before their cohorts followed them in.
Little Bo?
Other customers had their photos taken with them.
Another tavern patron picked up our camera and took our photo for us....what a friendly place!
Lisle Street. The hotel is barely visible on the left side of the street. And there you have it! A look around the neighborhood. It felt very safe and lively. We recommend it highly.
