According a recent study, London is the 5th most expensive city in the world for hotel accommodation. The average price per room, per night in the capital’s hotels currently stands at £106, placing it behind Moscow (£194), New York (£143), Dubai and Venice (£125.)
A hotel stay in London could set you back a small fortune, but doing a bit of shopping around could land you a great deal. There are plenty of budget hotels and guest houses which offer comfortable and well-situated accommodation at a price that doesn’t break the bank.
Take the Elysee hotel for example. Located in the popular Hyde Park area, this well-appointed, recently renovated three star hotel offers comfortable, affordable accommodation in the heart of the capital. Conveniently situated near to Paddington station and Lancaster Gate, it is ideal for those who want to explore all of the sights and sounds that London has to offer.
Elysee’s room rates start from just £45 per night, making for some of the best budget hotel accommodation in London.
A spokesperson for the hotel had this to say: “With the recent credit crunch, many people are increasingly seeking more cost effective accommodation. We have taken this into account with our current special offers.”
“Although we may be one of the cheapest hotels in London, this does not mean that our guests compromise on facilities. All of our rooms are equipped with air conditioning, en suite bathroom, hair dryer, wi-fi, tea and coffee making facilities, an in-room safe and a flat screen TV.”
