About Victoria Victoria is best known as an important transport centre with coach, underground and mainline rail stations - and it's the terminus for romantic journeys on the world-famous Orient Express. Given its very central location there is a proliferation of hotels in the area from small B&B’s to large 4 & 5 star properties. Victoria does have its own attractions like the Apollo Victoria, a former cinema built in art deco style, one of London's largest theatres now staging musicals. The Victoria Palace theatre also specialises in musicals and is famous for a golden statue of ballerina Anna Pavlova on the rooftop dome. Outside the theatre, the Little Ben clock tower, modelled on the Big Ben tower, is always set an hour ahead of GMT.
