Stansted to Hyde Park: Cheapest/easiest way?

Please forgive if this is a stupid question but I am not at all familiar with London.

I found two options to travel from Stansted airport to central London - Hotel in Knightsbridge opposite Hyde Park, 2 blocks from Harrods (staying on Starwood points!)

What will be the easiest (more important than cheapest) of Stansted Express or National Express? Please direct me in detail where I will have to climb over etc!

I thank you in advance. And I apologise again for sounding so helpless!

Terravision coach to Victoria, bus to hotel is probably the cheapest & easiest (except taxi / car service all the way but that would take the GDP of a small country to pay for)

See www.stanstedairport.com for details of public transport into London
See www.tfl.gov.uk for details of buses / tube around London

BTW Hyde Park is rather big and it would have been better saying "Stansted to Knightsbridge" in your heading

Thanks so much alanRow!

Do we need to book Terravision in advance? If not - will it not be possible to take it?

Thanks for the websites! I tried to access the Airport's earlier but without success. I managed to do it now - and things are a bit clearer.

Yes - I can see on the map Hyde Park is quite a big area. I do not think I should repost - think I will manage now. If you can just let me know about bookings.

Thanks again - I really appreciate the help.

One last question! Does Terravision coach leaves from bay 26 or bay 39 at Stansted? Airport site states one number and Terravision's site states another.

Thanks again.
