Dance*is*life Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hi just wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to stay near Central for the summer school. Student will be with a parent. Hotel/b/b/ flatlet whatever. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingboy65 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 We stayed at the Premier Inn London City Old Street, about half an hour walk from Central. Reasonably priced, on the Northern Line and the air con was brilliant in the heatwave! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pas de Quatre Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 https://www.lsevacations.co.uk/Accommodation/Rosebery-Hall/Rosebery-Hall.aspx This is a link to LSE student accommodation. This only shows the Christmas holidays at present, but they are available in the summer holidays too. Great location and great value. Other student accommodation can be found with Liberty Living who have various blocks in London. https://www.libertyliving.co.uk/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance*is*life Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 I was going to recommend Premier Inn to the mother, but some of them are more expensive than others. I'll mention Old Street then. Is that the nearest Premier Inn to Central do you know? What is the nearest tube station? I visited years ago and simply don't remember. Thanks so much for your help!

Mummy twinkle toes Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 We stayed at Premier Inn Holborn-about 25 minute walk via Covent Garden. Handy if you need to pick up last minute dance supplies. Farringdon is nearest-approx 10 minutes walk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingboy65 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Old Street is the nearest tube to that Premier Inn. We looked at Kngs cross premier Inn that was nearly £200 more for the same week! From what I remember it was the nearest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I thought we already had a thread about this but I can't find it. There are 2 Travelodges that I think are within a reasonable walk of Central: The Royal Scot on Kings Cross Road and a couple of hundred yards away The Faringdon Travelodge on Faringdon Road (which is the continuation of Kings Cross Road. I have stayed in both (they are also very handy for Sadler's Wells) and they are fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kate_N Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) I often stay at Rosebery Hall in the vacation when I'm doing work in London archives. The rooms are standard single rooms & some doubles, with kitchens for doing your own food, + breakfast in the price. And about a 15 or 20 minute easy walk to Central. You're about 3 minutes from Sadler's Wells. It's a quiet bit of central London, with some interesting areas to walk through. Also stay a lot in the Royal Scot Travelodge at Kings Cross - again, an easy walk to Central, and I always feel safe walking back after evening classes there (at around 9pm). The Vietnamese restaurant across the road is excellent! Edited January 6, 2019 by Kate_N 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadowblythe Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Think Sundial Court let in the holidays. Fairly basic student rooms but fabulous location, just round the corner from the Barbican. Less than 20 minutes walk to central, so I;m told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
