Jacqueline Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Many thanks for this info. I now realise there is a Travel Lodge near Covent Garden, on Drury Lane as I recall. Don't know how I missed it. That may be a goer but I will certainly see about booking into The Celtic, looks nice and more of a personal set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I've just randomly chosen the 11th May and the pre-pay rate at the Covent Garden Travelodge is £73. GO FOR IT NOW, Jacqueline - it's usually one of the more expensive ones! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO FOR IT NOW, Jacqueline - it's usually one of the more expensive ones! Booked it! The coach will be a fiver each way booked this early, bearable with a night between trips and vastly cheaper than the train! I may do this again for the triple in June, I am hoping to see Yanowsky on the Friday and Ferri in the Sat mat, although that Travelodge single room is showing at £106 advance booking already, so I can imagine how much it will be nearer the time! I will try The Celtic first and then shop round if necessary. Thanks again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I also rather like the Tavistock on Tavistock Square. En-suite singles are £83. The Tavistock is part of the Imperial Hotel Group that has several conveniently located hotels. They sometimes pop up with bargains on Travel Republic or Superbreak. I got one last year for £63 instead of £91 via Travel Republic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I think my sister-in-law stayed at a Travelodge at Waterloo a few years ago - don't know how much that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huddsballetmum Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Premier Inn at Covent Garden is only £69 for a double room. I've stayed there before and it is well worth the money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I think my sister-in-law stayed at a Travelodge at Waterloo a few years ago - don't know how much that is. Travelodge is heavily demand managed in it's pricing - the croydon central and Walthamstow travelodges are suprisingly convenient for central London as croydon central is literally round the corner from east croydon NR and Walthamstow is bang on top of Walthamstow tube which combined with even without Night tube nature of London's public transport ...

PrancingMum Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I would suggest http://www.tunehotels.com/my/en/our-hotels/paddington-london as it is really good value - I have friends who have recommended it to me although I haven't used it myself yet.

alison Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 SSSHHH ... don't mention Croydon Travelodge. It's supposed to be a Big Secret 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAB Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Perhaps the Balham Travelodge is worth considering too as it is adjacent to both Balham railway station and Balham tube station (one beneath the other). Catch the Northern line to Leicester Square and it's a couple of minutes walk up Long Acre to ROH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That £73 early booking deal now appears to be coming in at £106! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off-topic: A friend and I have got caught out for a trip to Southampton in September. She saw the Travelodge near the theatre for £39 but before we tried to book it the price had shot up to £123!!! Apparently it's the final weekend of the Boat Show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Are there no guesthouses left these days, Janet? I realise that Travelodges and their like have their uses, but presumably there are other alternatives too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise that Travelodges and their like have their uses, but presumably there are other alternatives too. The prices for them (if they weren't already full) were eye-watering too. I even looked at neighbouring towns and Winchester but obviously everyone had the same idea. My friend rang the tourist office and they suggested a Hilton that's by the Arena. By joining the Hilton rewards scheme we were able to book during their winter sale. It's still more than I was expecting to pay but I'd already bought my theatre tickets.

LinMM Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 You can be very lucky booking rooms in London like the £69 Premier Inn price someone mentioned .....though Sunday is by far the cheapest night to stay usually. It's just unfortunate if there is some other Major event on the weekend you may want to stay then prices just go through the roof!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I have to have en suite theses days as not prepared to go wandering along corridors to the loo at 4am!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
