Where to Stay on a Budget?
Shoreditch
Cool & Trendy
Best for nightlife, vintage shopping, and street art. Home to many budget boutique hotels.
Paddington
Practical
Lots of older, cheaper B&Bs. Amazing transport links (Heathrow Express) but slightly boring area.
Stratford
Modern
Home to the Olympic Park. 15 mins to center by tube, but hotels are 30% cheaper here.
King's Cross
Connected
Formerly gritty, now posh. Look for budget chains like Travelodge on Gray's Inn Road.
