The GEO in London Centre is located in Bloomsbury, the literary and historic heart of London, so it is perfectly placed for our programmes.
Transport
We’re 5 minutes from 3 tube stations, and 15 minutes from St Pancras International (should you fancy a weekend in Paris!). Four different buses pass the end of our road.
History and Culture
We are a 5 minute walk from the British Museum, 15 minutes from the British Library, and Charles Dickens’ Houses is just round the corner. In 2026 the brand new London Museum will be opening at the old Smithfield Market, which is about 15 minutes from the GEO Centre. London is quite a bit smaller than you might imagine, so you can walk to the West End to see a show in less than 20 minutes. And right around the corner is Holborn public library.
Cheap Eats
Bloomsbury is still relatively un-gentrified so you can find some excellent cheap places to eat: within a 3-minute walk of the GEO Centre there are cafes selling food from Iran, Japan, Thailand, Italy, south India, Korea…and of course our national delicacy: fish and chips! About 10 minutes away you’ll find Leather Lane Market, which sells an astounding array of street food from all over the world. There are also several green spaces nearby, so you can eat your sandwiches alfresco (English weather permitting!) And if you really want to eat like a Brit, you’d best try out a meal deal: £4 can buy you a sandwich, snack and a drink in most supermarkets.
