                                          Hotel deals in London

                                          You won’t be surprised to know that there are hundreds of London hotels to choose from.

                                          There are so many reasons to visit London. It could be a business meeting, a weekend city break, a theatre show, a big match or gig at Wembley Stadium, or a family break to hit all the museums and attractions.

                                          There are plenty of hotels to fit each different type of trip. Don’t worry - we’re here to make it easy to narrow down the options.

                                          You can use our map view to find the best hotels close to the parts of London you’re visiting, or near transport links if you want to look further out.

                                          If you need wheelchair-accessible hotels, or you like the idea of a pool and gym for a pre-meeting energiser, our filter options make it super simple.

                                          And if you sign up (for free) to become a LateRooms member, then you’ll get access to exclusive discounts – especially handy, considering London is not the cheapest city for hotel accommodation.

                                          Where to stay in London

                                          One of the biggest challenges is working out where in London you want to stay. Thankfully, as the city is home to one of the world’s best transport networks – including the oldest underground rail system, an overground rail network, buses and taxis - you don’t have to book a hotel right next to your intended destination.

                                          So, if someone gifts you a concert ticket for the O2, a West End show or a ride on the London Eye, but everyone’s already booked up the hotels close by, don’t panic!

                                          We’ve still got plenty of amazing last minute hotel deals in London just a short trip away, and they’ll likely be cheaper anyway.

                                          If you’re looking forward to all the touristy spots around the Thames and in the centre of the city, don’t be afraid to look at the outskirts of London for a good accommodation deal. As long as you’re close to a tube stop, you can travel to all the attractions in under an hour.

                                          Getting to the city late? Look for a hotel near the bigger train stations or a hotel with parking onsite, as that can make all the difference at the end of a long day.

                                          And the same if you want last minute hotels in London close to Heathrow or Gatwick – being able to roll out of bed and be at the terminal in a few minutes is a huge win for early flights.
