Hotel info
London is a huge city with literally thousands of hotels. Prices are generally high, and the minimum you can expect to pay for a night at a stylish hotel in a good location is 150 GBP per night - and that's probably without breakfast included. Budget options are available, however. We would recommend finding these through reputable international chains (such as IHG, Marriot, Hilton, Premier Inn, etc.) to ensure a minimum level of service and quality. If you are looking for something more distinctively 'London', here is a curated list of suggestions in various parts of the city: - Malmaison London, Clerkenwell - https://www.malmaison.com/locations/london/ - Vintry & Mercer, The City of London - https://www.vintryandmercer.com/ - Treehouse Hotel, Marylebone - https://www.treehousehotels.com/london - Kimpton Fitzroy, Bloomsbury - https://www.kimptonfitzroylondon.com/ - The Rose and Crown Guesthouse, Hackney - https://www.roseandcrownn16.co.uk/ - Bingham Riverhouse, Richmond - https://www.binghamriverhouse.com/ -Good Hotel, Docklands - https://goodhotel.co/london [NOTE: Malmaison London is directly next to the venue] Areas close (or relatively close) to the venue include Clerkenwell, Shoreditch, Bloomsbury and the City of London.
