Trendy yet homey, modern yet cultured - Bayswater is indeed a place of some unusual contrasts, where a walk down its main street - Queensway - will show a surprisingly wide variety of food stores, restaurants, and shops. Bayswater is also famous for its proximity to London’s greatest green space, Hyde Park. On top of the many popular festivals and activities in store, visitors can brag to have a palace, lake, and horse riding stables, quite literally, at their doorstep. The architecture in Bayswater is further among some of the most traditionally rich in London, where one can see the mixture of old influences in new buildings. This one-of-a-kind cultural and social mix indeed makes Bayswater a must-visit. That said, don’t forget to check out our list of top Airbnb vacation rentals in Bayswater, London, for a glorious stay!
