What London station do you come in to from Chester? You may need to get the underground from there. I think hyde park corner might be the closest tube station but I think that might still be a ten minute walk. Assuming the club is the one in central london? I don't know if there's more than one.

Euston is usually the station from Chester.
If your Mom is 80 it might be best to get a taxi to the club.

Alrighty WBA... if you're coming in from Eustion and I'm right about it being hyde park (it could be green park but I think that's still a walk), then you'd need to get the charring cross northern line down to leciester square and then pick up the piccadilly line so I think a cab might be better for your mum.

I'd also suggest that it might be worth paying for a taxi.

The nearest Underground station is Hyde Park Corner but getting there involves changing lines on the Underground (which involves a bit of hassle) and then finding your way across busy traffic. It's simpler to take the Victoria Line (Southbound) for 3 stops to Green Park and walk from there (straight along Piccadilly) , but it's just over ¼ mile.

If economy is important, you could take the fairly short walk from Euston Station to Euston Square Station, which is well-signposted. That's on the corner of Gower Street. Just a short way along Gower Street you'll find the terminus for the No 14 bus, which stops opposite the RAF Club on Piccadilly.
