Cheap Hotels

My parents are coming over to stay in the summer and have asked me to find them a hotel. Being new to London I have little clue. It needs to be on the cheap side as the flights are costing them a lot. I have looked on the net but can only find stuff for around £95 a night.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Hoxton urban lodge seems ok.

although let me just check before you quote me

http://www.hoxtonhotels.com/offers.php I mean, it's too bad considering it's a decent place. £59 much?

The only available rooms are over a £120 a night.

bollocks to that then

No recommendations sorry, but Travelodge Tower Bridge (at the bottom of Minories) seems one of the cheapest for a chain, 55q a night - http://www.travelodge.co.uk

laterooms.com and travelsupermarket.com are pretty good for searching for places. I'd just be wary of any bargains listed as Paddington, lots of doss-holes over that way. There's quite a few little hotels around Bloomsbury / Gray's Inn sort of way, again know nothing about them but some look pretty nice from going past. e.g. this place
http://www.georgehotel.com/english/prices.htm , but that's getting pricier if you don't want a shared bathroom

http://www.tripadvisor.com is good for independent people's reviews of places they've stayed

i mean, on a really cheap one, the great portland street youth hostel is nice and has private rooms

google for "argyll street b&Bs kings cross"

live round the corner from there (Kings Cross) Its one row if budget B&Bs.
Mostly run Indian or Eastern European. We put some peeps into various ones in the past.
Double room ensuite with Breakfast is round 50.
You get cheaper rates if you walk in and make reservation instead of online and haggle a bit too

not sure if it would apply to your dates but Ive booked rooms here before for $70 per night

If they are staying in the summer then lots of universities rent out rooms in their halls really cheaply - there is one in the west end, just up the road from saatchi and saatchi that does this,
(it is advertising this at the moment) although I cannot remember the name of it.

I've stayed a couple of times at The Gateway Hotel, which is not far from Clapham and Balham.
Nice and clean, and not too expensive.

I'm just pulling up an old thread to ask if anyone has stayed at the Hoxton in the recent few months? I need to book somewhere for next weekend. Cheers for any help.

r u aware of the price per night there?

Yeah, I know..... I've got some mates over from Seattle, who are going to put their accommodation through expenses. Cheers nuknow - any other way and it would be happy old travelodge, although - they aren't all that cheap.

Did you say...Seattle?

Make them bring me coffee.

Does anyone here work in the hotel/travel industry that can get me a reasonably priced hotel in Bath over the Easter weekend?!
