Just got back from United Kingdom — trip report March 2026

Returned from 11 days in United Kingdom. Mixed feelings but mostly positive.

Budget hotel near the main area. $27/night. Quiet area but close to the action.

Better than expected — plenty of options. Prices were slightly higher than expected.

Quality:
Better selection than last time. Had 3 encounters total.

Logistics:
Public transport is good enough. Food was cheap and delicious.

Safety:
No issues at all.

Overall: 8.5/10. Would definitely return.

Happy to answer any questions.

This matches my experience. United Kingdom is one of my favorites.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

+1 on this. Exactly my experience too. Solid destination.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.
