for a June trip, we are arriving at Gatwick airport at 7:50 p.m. What is the best way to get to hotel in Hyde Park at that time?
I was thinking train or bus to Bayswater... would we be able to catch a taxi there to the hotel on Leinster Gardens? We will have some luggage, so I don't think walking is an option. Hard to tell from the maps.
thank you, as always for your excellent advice!

Train from Gatwick to Victoria Station. From Victoria just take a black cab to your hotel.

Gatwick Express train! Fast and convenient. Just follow the signs to it in the airport.

As an aside for this location Heathrow would have been a more convenient airport to arrive in but that presumably is no longer an option.
Notionally the quickest route from Gatwick by a smidgeon is a Southern train to Clapham Junction, Overground to West Brompton, then District Line to Bayswater. This has an extra change compared with going via Victoria though.
