I just checked the site, and 5 nights or more in a king , with breakfast included is £110/night!

It really looks nice Jody.I just put it in my fabourites. Maybe another time I go to London I might stay there. As I have only 2 days this time I prefer to stay in the Knightsbridge area. Thanks!
It's much nicer than the Bonnington Steph and has also a very good location. |
do you think that The Sumner Hotel is better the Twenty Nevern Square? They say that they will give us the rate of £92.00 per night in a luxary double with our own balcony. Do you think - if we stay at the Twenty Nevern- that the hotel is in a good spot to explore the city? Or would the Sumner Be better for location?
Thanks |
Nevern square is close to Earl's Court, good for transportation, but it is not an area that I fnd at all appealing. Just my personal preference, I like South Ken, Mayfair, Chelsea,Knightsbridge. I'm sure there are lots of other people that like the area. I find it borderline , myself.

I agree w/ jody. Nevern Square is practically right in front of the Earls Court Exhibition Center. I personally wouldn't want to stay in that area even in a deluxe room.

...#5 Sumner Place still has an active web page. Are you sure that it is no longer in business?
|
Steph, I had a letter from them (#5) just last week saying they were closed and the place sold. As a previous customer, they were offering me a further discount on a future stay at the new Sumner.
I noticed the same thing, maybe they just haven't updated their webpage. |
jody...just one question. We were actually planning on going to Bavaria and because flights had spiked we settled on london. I was looking forward to going somewhere remote and scenic and feel like going to london will be just like visiting a big city such as LA o NY. Is this true or is there somewhere we can escape to for a relaxing - no hustle - good time?????

TravelinSteph, have you considered getting an apartment?
For your price range, I think you could get a decent one, in a good location. Just a thought. As far as hotels, I agree with the others - Earl's Court is not an "attractive" area, and that Underground station isn't really as convenient as it looks (at least it hasn't been for me). I like Russell Square/Bloomsbury, for things to do close by and for the atmosphere. I've never stayed in Mayfair or Kensington. I usually agree with what a previous poster said about Priceline (wanting to know precisely where I'll stay before I plunk down my cash), but in London, Priceline seems to be a wonderful way to choose a hotel. You pick a general location and a price you're willing to pay and they choose a hotel in that area for you. Many posters here have gotten wonderful deals (under $100 per night for two people) at pretty nice hotels (4*). So, I think it would be worth a try. (Do some homework first, on biddingfortravel.com or similar.) Those are my random, late-night thoughts. Gayle |

Pauly old man - it is very obvious you work for hotels.com. Knock off the advertising (its not allowed here).
