Any accommodation tips for 5 nights in London?

edited September 2009 in Not Sports Related
I will be back in Europe for work in October & am going to tag on a few nights in London to catch up on friends & family. I want to stay in a hotel or B&B, rather than slumming it on couches or putting up with in-laws etc!!

Anyone know of any good deals or recommendations for hotels/b&bs in or aroubd London, particularly SE London???

    Holiday Inn Express at The Dome is £80 a night - which is pretty good, but maybe there is something better than that?

    If work are picking up the tab what about the Clarendon in Blackheath?

    http://www.clarendonhotel.com/

    Used to be decent but I am talking about a fair few years ago!

    depends on what you don't mind paying and more specifically where location wise you'd prefer to stay

    If you want cheap & basic ...... but anonymous, Travel Lodge usually have some really cheap deals.
    There's literally hundreds of them around.

    You can book on line.

    You pay extra for breakfast or just find the nearest caff for coffee & bacon roll.

    Not sure about the Clarendon these days. Great location though.

    Travel Lodges are fine but dont turn up late as i heard that they sometimes overbook the rooms.

    Try Expedia.com Hotels.com laterooms.com

    Blackheath Standard.

    162 - quite new

    And in St Alfeges passage in greenwich.
    Number 16

    I like the Novotel but more expensive - its quite swanky for a novotel and has a gym etc.

    Check out the Novetel in Greenwich or the Hamilton house hotel.

    Both are pretty good and not too expensive.

    If you want something cheaper, the ibis is ok.

    Payback time for me NLA after witnessing all the clueless Brits on holidays over here this summer dressed for a Polar expedition despite the temperatures reaching the mid 90s whilst trying to stroke and hand feed Grizzly Bears!!

    Thanks for all the suggestions - some excellent suggestions in there! I forgot about the Ibis in Greenwich - thats a really handy place to stay..............

    Curb-it - i am sure that place in St Alfeges Passage is a gay B&B?!?!?

    It certainly is. You may even get to stay in Alfe's passage.

    it is gay friendly but dont think you have to be gay to stay there surely! The standard one the rooms are small. An if you read reviews the ibis has some poor ones. Has bad rep. There is also davenport house.

    I remember watching that Hotel Inspector show about the St Alf's B&B...............I used to use the Ibis for business clients who were visiting London and they did grumble about it being shabby etc

    Ah good old carrington house, got taken on a tour round there once when I worked for the social about a quarter of a century ago. I wonder if any of the 'clients' there that day are still alive, I doubt it. One of the things that sticks in the mind about the area. Still think it was a cut above the den, or the new den coming to think about it, when you consider a des res in that part of London. The stench used to reach Greenwich, especially when we used to palm the winos off to the unemployment office in the old Greenwich town hall 5 minutes before closing on a Friday.

    Sorry oakstee, not much help reminisces of carrington house or the various resettlement units of SE London I visited over the years. But it really depends on what you want in London and if you are happy to stay away from the çentre and but a weekly travel card it might be better than slumming it in central London or SE8!

    There is a similar "luxury hotel" - off the Woolwich Road - on the corner of the flyover, next to the East Greenwich Fire station of old. The Greenwich Hotel I believe is it's name....

    I know a lovely place about 10 minutes from the tunnel, really nice chalet rooms on farm land but its this side of the tunnel (the nice side) little Village called Bulphan £30 a night. Might also be handy for anyone doing the Southend away
