Safety won't be an issue just about anywhere in central London, so don't fret about that. You can safely walk about alone at night just about anywhere you will likely find yourself. Just sensible precautions.

as for the hotels -- all of those are absolutely fine. Convenient to the Tube, near sites, etc. I'd personally probably pick either the Montcalm or Flemings.

Before you book the package though - have you priced out the costs of doing it on your own? Often on air/hotel packages one pays quite a steep single supplement.

That's certainly true that air/hotel packages' single rates are very expensive. You could try emailing the various hotels to get the rates for your travel dates. Then compare the air/hotel package to booking the air and hotel separately. The hotels sometimes have good special rates and offers.

I do have the time to do the additional research. Thanks for the input.
