attention denizens of london, england, and environs
venividi is traveling to London in autumn of this year. Where's a good and inexpensive place for him and his wife to stay that's within walking distance of a Tube station and a grocery store? Thanks!

How big of a grocery store? Little corner shop, or big supermarket, or pocket supermarket?

There are plenty of tube stations ;-) I'd recommend somewhere in zones 1 or 2, but that's because that's where I've lived all my life. Probably more towards west london than east, or
possibly north or northwest in those zones.

drugstorechemist, ATMs, and a few other useful whatsits.Rate also includes free continental breakfast, which is an improvement over the basket of tasteless fruit & tray of stale danishes one gets in the anonymous business-traveller hotel chain here. Includes cold cuts and cheeses, for one thing.

There are a bunch of other townhouses converted to hotels along the street, I imagine they're all going to be pretty similar to the one I stayed in.

Thanks for asking
We're staying more or less two weeks. We want something in a residential part of London with easy tube access. Friends of mine have stayed in Kensington before and liked it but the hotel they stayed at no longer exists. 'Expensive' is the Marriot on the Thames. 'Inexpensive' is around half their room rate or less.
