Sel55 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I stayed at Kensington suite hotel. Five minutes walk from the Olympia. Staff were nice. Rooms clean. Had to pay for wi-fi which was £10 for whole stay. Breakfast was standard. Cereal and toast. Coffee and tea. You have a fridge and microwave in the room which was handy. I paid £285 for 4 nights. Booked it through booking.com. I would go back to this hotel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarioVl Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I stayed at London Visitors hotel. It's ridiculously near the Olympia. If you don't mind walking up stairs and shared bathrooms, it's actually a fairly nice place by London standards - the staff was friendly, the rooms comfy and clean, and the breakfast great. And the price was unbeatable, at least at the time we booked it (March I believe). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie-Loup Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I stayed at Hotel 65 for the third time, it's a short walk from the Olympia and is quite cheap. We pay 300£ for 3 people and 3 nights. It's not the best hotel but it's decent, more than enough to have a shower and sleep :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap, simple and nice pretty unlimited breakfast. They even gave me a double room this year for myself :-D for £50 it's hard to argue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting and helpful thread this as am thinking of doing 3 days next year. Loved all I got done in one day this year but was pretty rushed and had no chill time. Of course, all guest dependent. What was it like for sleeping at Hotel 65 as some of the reviews I've read say you can hear everything from the surrounding rooms? Seems good price and works out cheaper for hotel and weekend pass than the gold pass alone. Edited August 10, 2017 by spengler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can hear noisy neighbours on the corridor sometimes, but once they are in their room, it's ok. It's definitely not the best hotel you will stay in (not the worst either), but it's alright for the price and what we use it for (shower and sleep). I prefer to use the money for autographs and photos! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very noisy too but i was on street side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RomeroSavini Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Been in that area a lot on that street over the last 5 years (8 times I Think) and bed, sleep and breakfast is always fine for me. I use cheap ear plugs and sleep heavenly haha But that long street of hotels are all the same pretty much. I have been on ground floor, basement, back and street side. I still go back, so it shows you I haven't had anything too bad. No bed bugs, really sad to hear that happened shippercrazy. That could even put me off! I paid from £20 to £55 on that street. So for the price I cannot complain. I keep going back, that says somethimg (that I am cheap haha). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for the tip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomeroSavini Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Ahhh good on you with the free cancellation! As never really done that before (or noticed it was included). May do it myself now haha :-D will keep my eyes peeled for best cheap deals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
