London is...
...big! London covers a large amount of geography, and there are many different areas (much like New York City)--stylish areas, poor areas, industrial areas, touristy areas, etc.
...expensive! And the exchange rate doesn't help!
...safe! At least, compared to most U.S. cities. You actually can walk in the park at night with little fear of being accosted.
...into butter! They put butter on everything! Ever had a ham sandwich with butter? Takes some getting used to.
...chilly! Granted, I've been there only in the springtime months, but it always seems a bit cold, even on sunny days.
...polite! People are polite. Very refreshing for a tourist.
...really old! There's great history in London, and plenty to see and do.
...easy to get around in! London has a good public transportation system, and its cab drivers actually know what they're doing and consider their work a profession to be proud of.

London is an absolutely AMAZING city. I just went from April 5-13. The weather was beautiful. Normally, London is known for always being rainy and cold, but that is just the opposite of what I had. It was always sunny and the coldest day we had was 60*. There is so much history and so many things to do you will not get bored. The people there are amazing. They are so nice to everyone, whether you live there or are just a tourist.Also, you almost never see anyone talking on a cell phone. It is so completely different from what we see in America. Also, if you go you have to see at least one play. You cannot go to England with seeing a play in the West End. Overall, London is a city of history, nice people and will make an amazing trip.

It is an incredibly huge city, expensive, dirty, fascinating, and friendly. If you want more specific answers you'd have to ask a more specific question.
