Is there a website for the hotel yet? Do you know if its booked solid
for the next few weeks or etc?

I dont know about anyone else but I hope this is successful. All I
need is a bed and some privacy!

It certainly seems busy but I saw a few free nights over the next few
weeks.

I'd be interested if it was quiet, as that's often a problem in hotel
rooms in large cities, I find. I wonder if this isn't just a
refurbishment of what used to be called the Lexham Hotel (and maybe
renamed since) which I stayed in a few times in the late 80?

the original topic, but can you recommend another low cost hotel in
London?

I know what you mean about the noise. I just bring earplugs anytime Im
staying in a hotel!

unless you're in Paris, then you bring your fire extinguisher.

What's the budget, and where do you need to be? I'm afraid I haven't
stayed in really low cost hotels in London for a while. On recent trips,
I've used Travelodge and Ibis. I prefer the latter, but they don't
always have such good advance deals.

The budget is as low as possible, 50-70 euro a night if possible or
lower. I dont mind a shared bathroom. I'll be there alone and won't
need anything more from the hotel than a single bed (and hopefully not
the fire extinguisher!), but Id prefer a single room instead of a
shared room. Id like to be within 10 or 15 minutes walk from a tube
station.

Let me know if you have good recommendations, thanks in advance.

The one in Barking is around 10 minutes walk from Barking Train/Tube
station, but that really is quite far from the centre of London- I
reckon it's more trouble than it's worth. Still, it's 32 UKP, around 47
Euro.

As has been mentioned in the group before, Travelodge can have some very
good deals if you book in advance. I'm seeing 26 pound _double_ roooms
at the London Islington hotel in November, for example.

If you can get the 26 pound rate, you probably won't get better than
that, and even their 46 pound rate is very good. Their hotels are fairly
central too. I've stayed at the Islington hotel for example, and walked
to the West End in around 15-20 minutes.

If you're traveling alone I think you should consider a hostel; I
generally found private rooms a rather lonely experience. May before
last I stayed at a London hostel and had a Four person room (ensuite) to
myself Three of Five nights anyway. Spend the money saved doing things
during the day IMO...
