    Default London Accommoation?

    Does anyone have any ideas to help find a hotel in london? Fiance and I will be there for our honeymoon.

    After going over as many websites as we can handle! We have found about 3 in our price range and requirments.

    Any ideas? Just incase we've missed something somone here might know of? Any particular website or even a particular hotel?

    We will be in London for 6 nights in May into June. Trying to keep the $$ under 1k ($750 odd is perfect). Has own ensuite and fridge is our requirments. Trying to stay a bus ride away from central london (We have cheap bus travel tickets )

    We will be checking up B & B's next too see how they compare in $

    Cheers if any of you travllers out there can help!

    Try The Knowhere Guide that shows most towns in the UK with links to hotels

    My sister was over there in August and found that hotels/backpackers were pretty steep. They ended up renting a small apartment for a couple of weeks as it worked out much cheaper and was still close to a tube station/shops etc..... Don't have any names, but might be worth changing your target search. With hotels you are mainly paying for the service and housekeeping, if you can do it yourself and provide you own linen or sleeping bags you should save a fair amount.

    Thanks heaps.

    Weve narrowed it down to 2 different B&Bs, and 3 hotels, and 1 apartment!

    Some of them want deposits, others want paid in full (Which I dont want too do)

    We got free travel passes for the tube so tryin close enough to use them!

    check out the Lonely Planet. also they have a website where the users are knowledgeable and helpful. LP is excellent as it's independent, most other guides are copping money for including hotels.

    $100 a night won't get you luxury in London, that's for sure. it's worth spending a bit extra to be near the action though, don't get trapped out in the far reaches where transport costs will eat up any savings on the room, unless it's near the tube (which works great).
