The Holborn offshoot of the indie Shoreditch original might look like it'd be too swanky to be included in a round-up of cheap hotels, but there are affordable options at this central London spot. Located between the British Museum and Covent Garden, the hotel’s 174 rooms come in four different sizes and the smallest ‘Shoebox’ (around 14 sqm) can be bagged from £115 a night, depending on availability. For this you get clever design, free wifi, a morning snack and fresh milk in your fridge, plus the Hubbard & Bell restaurant and bar, and basement Chicken Shop.
This central London neighbourhood is a biggy. The location of Charles Fowler’s neo-classical Covent Garden Market and the Royal Opera House, it is one of London’s most iconic tourist destinations, and is home to a wealth of excellent restaurants, bars and independent boutiques. As these things don’t come cheap, you’d do well to save a few pennies on the hotel. Thankfully, finding accommodation for less than £100 a night is easier than you'd think, both in the area and within ten minutes’ walk of it. Want proof? Here are our top ten favourite cheap hotels in Covent Garden.
