OTHER INFORMATION
TIME SHIFT

TIME
In November, we expect changeable weather with temperatures around 15°C
We recommend bringing waterproof clothing in case of light showers or rain,
which is always a factor to be reckoned with in England.
For the latest long-term weather forecast for London, see for example HERE.
VRECKOVÉ
Prices in supermarkets are very similar to prices in Slovakia, in some places even lower.
A menu in McDonalds costs 8-10 GBP, a main meal in an average restaurant 15-20 GBP.
Pocket money is very individual.
On average we recommend 40 GBP / day.
ELECTRICAL SOCKETS
In the UK and Ireland, “G” type electrical sockets are used HERE
TELEPHONY/DATA
All major Slovak operators put the UK in the same roaming zone as the rest of the EU.
For specific information about your operator’s roaming, see:

CASH / CREDIT CARDS
The official currency of the United Kingdom is the British pound.
1 EUR = 0.8811 GBP (pound sterling), source: the NBS, as of 09. 11. 2025
The easiest way to pay is by credit or debit card.
You can easily exchange euros for pounds in our banks or in London banks or money changers.
In London, you can of course withdraw pounds from an ATM using your credit card.
We recommend that you check the withdrawal fees with your bank in advance and only withdraw the amount you plan to spend during your stay.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us by email or phone.
