Where to stay in London?

[Monique in TX]

Does anyone have any recommendations of a decent, simple, place to stay
in London that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? U.S. budget type hotels
are going for ca. $200 per night in July.

Thanks,
Monique

Well, in the city, $200 is not _too_ bad (remember, the USD is pretty
weak against the UKP at the moment, which doesn't help you).

I'd suggest looking a bit further out, as long as there are good
transport links. Try Travelodge http://www.travelodge.co.uk

You could look at Stratford London (close to Olympic sites), and with
good transport links in several directions. It is not in the city, and
you'll have a bit of a trek if you fly into Heathrow or Gatwick (but,
ask, we can get you there with minimal stairs - I used to do this
all.the.time). But prices are closer to $100 than $200. So depending on
what experience you want, that might work for you?

Look out for the Premier Inns, good value for money

and Travelodge too. We always stay at a Travelodge when we go to DS
across the country (their house is full of baby/teenagers) and they have
some really good offers though these come and go. I think Premier do the
same thing.
