Step outside, and you’re five minutes from the Cutty Sark. That’s the old tea clipper ship that looks like a posh pirate ship. Take a selfie, pretend you’re a sea captain.

Then there’s the Greenwich Park. It’s huge, green, and has a hill that makes you feel like you’re in a Jane Austen novel. At the top, you’ll see the Royal Observatory and the Prime Meridian Line. Stand with one foot in East and one in West—perfect for a goofy photo to annoy your friends.
And don’t miss the Greenwich Market. It’s a riot of food stalls, vintage clothes, and handmade jewelry. I ate a pulled pork bao bun that changed my life. Or maybe it was just the hunger, but still—go hungry.
Food at the Hotel? Yes, and It’s Decent
Premier Inn has an on-site restaurant called Thyme. It’s not Michelin-starred, but it’s reliable, tasty, and cheap. The full English breakfast is a pile of eggs, sausages, and beans that will fuel you for a day of sightseeing. The coffee is hot and comes with refills—winning.
For dinner, I had a burger that was surprisingly juicy. And they do a kids’ menu that includes “spaghetti with no sauce.” Because kids are weird like that. The service is friendly; one waiter even joked that my fries were “the best in Greenwich.” I believed him.
