            Lodging recommendations for London

            Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            Hello!

            I will be in London for 3 days the week of January 11th, 2010.

            I have never been to London and so I am not familiar with the neighborhoods. I am a female and traveling alone, so safety is a primary concern. I currently live in NYC so I am comfortable being out and about when it's dark and with using subway systems.

            I would like to spend no more than US$150/night on lodging, which I suppose could be as little as 75pounds/night if the exchange rate gets worse. Is this completely unreasonable to expect? In which neighborhoods would I be able to find this price range?

            I would really like a CLEAN lodging option. Doesn't have to be a big room. Private bathroom.

            Some of the things I like to do when I travel: go to museums, walk through parks, photograph buildings/churchs/enjoy architecture, relax in cafes, see a few of the major-can't-miss-them sights, walk along waterfronts, visit farmers markets...

            Of course, I would love to stay in the nicest, most centrally located neighborhood, but I realize my budget is very tight for London. So, I'd be willing to stay a little bit farther away and use the subway.

            If anyone has any recommendations for neighborhoods or specific places you have stayed at and enjoyed, I will GREATLY appreciate it!

            Thanks in advance, I know you guys are always helpful!
