\n\t\"London<\/a>\n\t
London Apartment Studio Vacation Rental in Chelsea (LN-762)<\/div>\n<\/div>Earl\u2019s Court in South Kensington<\/a> is one of the most brilliant places to stay in all of London<\/a>. <\/strong>Home to the renowned Earl\u2019s Court Exhibition Centre, a short walk from the museums on Cromwell Road, and a few tube stops from the summer happenings on South Bank, this area once well-known as a backpacker\u2019s paradise has grown into the destination of choice for families, short-stay tourists and international travelers of every stripe. What hasn\u2019t changed, however, are the budget-conscious values that the neighborhood offers\u2014including a wide range of exciting and affordable New York Habitat vacation rentals throughout South Kensington<\/a>.
\nTo make the most of your travel budget, walk from your New York Habitat flat in Earl\u2019s Court to the nearby Natural History, Victoria & Albert, and Science Museums by Knightsbridge<\/a>\u2014each of which has free admission. Keep costs low by avoiding entrance fees for \u201cspecial exhibits\u201d and taking advantage of the museums\u2019 regular collections instead, which are amazing in themselves and have more than enough on offer for everyone. Also keep an eye out for free talks, tours and events, which range from late-night Fridays with DJs to \u201cexplorer tours\u201d that allow children to become dinosaur detectives or hands-on wildlife experts.<\/p>\n

Another way to save on entertainment is to sightsee your way from Earls\u2019 Court to Soho<\/a> (which will take you past Museum Row, Kensington Palace, Hyde Park, Harrod\u2019s and Buckingham Palace).<\/strong> Then settle down to watch the free Rushes Soho Shorts programs of films that take place in a variety of venues and cinemas around the area at the end of July. Lots of talent, no cost\u2014and air-conditioned comfort!
\nFor an \u201cauthentic English\u201d experience near Earl\u2019s Court, head to Riley\u2019s for some snooker in the neighborhood of Pimlico<\/a>. For the low price of one game (and bragging rights), a local will be more than happy to teach you how to play. It\u2019s similar to pool or billiards, but the best part is that a single game can last well over an hour\u2014pound for pound, the greatest value for your British pound!<\/p>\n

While Earl\u2019s Court is teeming with inexpensive ethnic eateries, another way to cut costs is to stop by the local Waitrose grocery, which slashes prices on some fresh food items an hour before closing. Take these bargains back to your New York Habitat apartment rentals in South Kensington<\/a> and enjoy a home-cooked meal! Some suggestions for your stay are:<\/p>\n
