Not available for GA flying I am afraid. Largely due to the intense noise restrictions around EGLC.
From the City Airport Website:
ALL aircraft using the Airport must be of an approved type. To qualify for approval an aircraft must fit into one of the Airport's Noise Categories and be capable of making an approach at 5.5 degrees or steeper (this compares with 3 degrees at most other airports).
Helicopters and other vertical take off and landing (VTOL) aircraft, and aircraft with a single engine, are prohibited and flying for club or leisure purposes is not permitted. Type approval is given by the Airport's Operations and Control Department, telephone: +44 (0)20 7646 0241, fax: +44 (0)20 7511 0248, e-mail:

Why not Biggin Hill/Elstree etc? Both easily accesible to London.
ALSO - please check your maps carefully - there is complicated and busy airspace around the London area. Don't forget that the London City Zone is active 24 Hours now. As is the London Heathrow Control Zone.
Have fun either way!
