HotelMap.com guides Notting Hill Carnival goers to the best London hotels

-- /EPR NETWORK/ -- Notting Hill Carnival has been taking to the streets of West London since 1966 with its own unique blend of Caribbean music, food and culture. 2012 is a special year for Londoners thanks to the London Olympics and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and so this year's Notting Hill Carnival is rumoured to be even bigger, better and just that extra bit special.

After evolving from a small local affair for Notting Hill's resident Caribbean community in the mid sixties to the largest street party in Europe, the Notting Hill Carnival is now one of the most popular annual London events. More than one million party-hungry revellers descend on Notting Hill over the August Bank Holiday weekend, which this year takes place on 26 and 27 August. Floats filled with costumed dancers and musicians cruise along the streets by day, while the local clubs are filled with Caribbean musical flavours by night.

Carnival is always hectic, busy, crowded and exhausting, but it also boasts an electrifying atmosphere, delicious food, good vibes and amazing music.
