Where can I find the best affordable luxury hotels in London?

May 03, 2021

It goes without saying that London is our favourite city in the world. One of the most popular destinations for tourists with a famous landmark on every corner, the city is steeped in history, art and culture.
 
However, there is one thing that tourists may not love so much, and that’s finding a hotel that meets your room requirements. With thousands of options for hostels, serviced apartments, bed and breakfasts and luxury hotels in London, how do you decide which is right for your stay?
 
Something that is often a deciding factor is the room price. Options can range from under £100 per night to over £1,000, and span everything from a windowless room in a global chain of city hotels, to large 2-bed apartments in totally unique buildings with purpose-built fittings. We’ve put together a handy blog post to help you find a hotel that is equally right for your stay while remaining within your set price bracket: no matter whether you are celebrating a special occasion, visiting for a month, or popping by for a mini city-break “stay-cation”.
