Parking at Down Street Tube Station
Down Street tube station is a disused London Underground station in Mayfair, between Hyde Park Corner and Green Park stations (ltmuseum.co.uk). The station is at 116 Piccadilly, Mayfair, City of Westminster, W1J 7BJ, rather than a functioning station entrance with a customer car park.
The site is used for Hidden London tours, with the tour starting inside the Athenaeum Hotel on Piccadilly (mainlymuseums.com). Drivers heading for a tour therefore need to arrange parking in Mayfair separately, rather than looking for station-operated bays at the former station.
