Smile London Underground please help.

I have to go to Harley Street on Monday & am told that Regent's Park is the nearest tube station.

What is the best way to get to Regent's Park from Liverpool Street rail station? Which line & to where? It will be around 10.00am -10.30am at Liverpool St.

Central Line to Oxford Circus then Bakerloo Line to Regent's Park looks ok but is there a better alternative.

Any help muchly appreciated.

Mark.

You'd be better off taking the Circle line to Portland St, which is vitually next door to Regents Park tube.

Or Circle line to Baker St then change to Bakerloo line to Regents Park.

Look at the map to get the best idea. What end of Harley St do you need? I'd say, get off at Oxford Circus if you need the south end of the st, and walk. Less time spent underground the better Else Regents PK using district/circle/hammersmith/city line as per above. Many tubes do an overground/underground map whic helps get perspective of where you actually are in relation to tube stations.

Don't waste your time going to Regents Park, as above, get either District\Cricle\Ham&City to Great Portland Street or Baker Street, high numbers in Harley street are stones throw from both.
Turn left out Gt Port. St or left out Baker Street and cross the road at Madame Tussauds.

Or spend maybe 6-8 odd quid in a cab.

Cheers guys.

The snooty bird in reception has now said it's about a 5-10 min walk from Regents Park station along Marylebone Road to the consultant's.It's around the 150 mark numbers wise.

Well I made it there & home in one piece.Cheers for your input.

I went Central line - Oxford Circus then Bakerloo line - Regent's Park & had lunch in the park watching the wobbly & the not so wobbly joggers go by.

The guy I was seeing was right at the north end of H.St. & I was done & dusted & back to L.St. with just a five minute wait to get the next train home - result.

It depends on which end of Harley St u want. I found that by going via Oxford St. stn is the quickest route.
