Soho occupies the W1 grid between Oxford Street and
Shaftesbury Avenue, east of Regent Street and west of Charing Cross Road.
The area has been Central London’s entertainment district for three
centuries — restaurants, bars, theatres, independent cinemas and
music venues layered across Georgian and Victorian buildings. Chinatown
sits along Gerrard Street in the south; Carnaby Street and the boutique
shops of Kingly Street run along the west side.
Staying in Soho works for visitors who prioritise nightlife, dining
and theatre over quiet mornings. Most addresses are within five minutes
of a theatre, and the streets stay active until late. Tube coverage is
dense: Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth), Oxford Circus
(Central, Victoria, Bakerloo), Piccadilly Circus (Piccadilly, Bakerloo)
and Leicester Square (Piccadilly, Northern) surround the district.
Hotels here are mostly boutique rather than chain — Dean Street
Townhouse, Ham Yard Hotel, The Soho Hotel, Hazlitt’s. Rates sit at
the higher end of Central London, reflecting the location. Below are
34 properties currently listed in Soho.
