london month

I am a vegetarian and I love Indian food. I am planning to spend the month of May in London. Will 75 pounds a day be sufficient for me? I don't need fancy accommodation but I want to visit all the famous sights of London and I don't want to stay in a hostel.

Is the 75 pounds for lodging only or for food, lodging and sightseeing? You would be hard pressed to get by on that for all activities.

for food, lodging and sight-seeing. I don't mind staying in zone 3.

If you are staying for a month, look into renting a flat. That's the best chance you have of spending only 75 pounds a day. Hotels, even reasonable ones, will cost almost that a day in London.

Basic single room: 30-40GBP<BR>Simple meal (takeaway, market, etc): 5GBP<BR>Restaurant meal: 15GBP<BR>Major attractions: 10GBP<BR>1-month transport card (70-85GBP): 3GBP/day<BR><BR>So that would be about 75GBP/day. This is probably high, since you needn't eat out EVERY day, and there are many free attractions (museums, etc).<BR><BR>For a single person, an apartment might not be cheaper, but you should check the rates anyway. Also, if staying in a guest hotel or B&B, try to get a long-term discount. You should be able to find a single room for 35GBP or less near Victoria station, which is a convenient, safe area with lots of budget hotels.

Check out londonfreelist.com for free or nearly free activities in London. The Time Out publication would also be a good resource for you.<BR><BR>I still think it'll be a little tight to get by on your budget because London is such an expensive city. But truth be told, if I had the chance to spend May in London and only had 75 pounds a day to spend, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Good luck!
