We stayed in Euston when my family and me went back in December. I think the name of the hotel was called Thistle Euston. It's pretty nice although the rooms are tiny compared to American hotel rooms; you only get a twin bed or a double bed! It's within walking distance from the tube/train station which was really convenient.

When you're there, you'll want to see the British Museum, Buckingham Palace, Harrod's (the store is AMAZING!), Westminster Abbey, The Tower of London and Madam Tussuad's (which is a lot of fun).

I can't remember the names of the restaurants we went to but if you walk around Piccadilly Circus/Trafalgar, you'll find a bunch of restaurants. The English certainly aren't known for their food but there a bunch of great Indian restaurants there if you like that type of food.

ETA: Be prepared to spend a lot of money. The dollar isn't doing so hot right now so it's really expensive there. For a family of 4 to go to a casual restaurant, it cost us about $80!
