Answer 1

have you looked at youth hostels? new ones are supposed to be really good

Answer 2

If you want cheap (and I emphasise cheap in quality), there's Lords Hotel in Bayswater not far from Queensway tube station.

Otherwise I'd recommend a Travelodge for acceptable cheapness (i.e cheap but good), or a Premier Travel Inn.

Answer 3

if there are any cheap hotels in central London, they would have to be real crappy

Answer 4

I think that Bed and Breakfasts are the best way to go in London when it comes to central and inexpensive lodging. Plus you get free breakfast. Though London B&B's aren't as charming and homey as the ones in the country, they're much less expensive than large hotels and offer private ensuite rooms that are quite clean.

I've stayed in the Vegas hotel (http://www.vegashotel.co.uk/) near Victoria Station. This room was bizarre since you entered through the loo to get to the bed, however, at least it was ensuite, cheap, clean, included breakfast and had a television. That area around and behind Victoria has dozens of similar B&Bs, and the same is true of areas surrounding most of the city's main central train stations, King's cross area has loads, but it's not quite as close to the city center but it is close to excellent transportation. Staying near Victoria is a good idea because of all the great transportation connections and it's a safe area. www.4hotels.co.uk is a good place to start B&B shopping. It also lets you browse by region of London. The bigger sites like www.hotels.com, www.expedia.com, etc. usually have some B&B listings for London as well.

I'd also recommend the Hotel St. Simeon B&B in Kensington http://www.stsimeon.com/. This B&B had spacious rooms, gorgeous lobby, great breakfasts and was in a really nice area of the city, right off Gloucester Road tube station.

Rates for these types of B&Bs usually start at around 40 pounds ($80). And since they include large breakfasts they help stretch your food budget as well!

Answer 5

Answer 6

A while since I have been to London, but I used to use a hotel booking agency that was located in the front facade of Victoria Railway station. There are other such agencies in some Underground ticket halls.

Answer 7

Hahahaha are you trying to make us laugh something cheap in London.

Answer 8

the words cheap and london dont normally go in the same sentence , but on the off chance that you do get one, dont expect the ritz or the term clean andtidy to arise. good luck

Answer 9

During my last trip I came across a website called http://www.cheaphotel-s.com . It has quite a large variety of hotels. You might wanna give it a try.

Answer 10

Like most people have said, cheap and London are not synonymous.  You might check out the Hoxton Hotel which is near the Old Street underground station.  It's a nice, modern, and clean hotel at a decent price (for London).  I recently stayed there and was very pleased with my experience.  The area is not the most attractive, but it heats up at night because there are several restaurants, bars, and clubs in the area.
