Good Value Luxury 4 Star Hotels in Central London

Four Star Hotel Room London

Discounted 4 Star Hotels in London are the norm nowadays, few people pay the standard rates posted above hotels reception desk. With the automated reservation systems of hotels adjusting rates almost day by day, room rates in Central London fluctuate wildly.


The star system only reflects the facilities offered by each hotel, its only when you get to five star level hotels that things like ambience are taken into account.


In general four star hotels aimed at business people tend to have the lowest rates at the weekend when conferences and business activity is at a low ebb. Room rates in four star hotels can be comparatively low during the August holiday period (UK kids only get August off for their summer break) and Christmas.


In the very centre of London, the large multinational chains dominate. In the West End theatre district nearly all accommodation is four star or higher and there is a significant price premium.


With London's excellent public transport and the spread out nature of London itself you can get a lot more 'bangs for your buck' by staying just outside this central area. For the leisure traveler a favourite district is Kensington, particularly around the Gloucester Road area.


At weekends you will find excellent deals in the business districts. Hotels like the City Inn Westminster and Novotel Waterloo can offer four star rooms within 10 minutes walk off Big Ben for not far off £100 at this time on occasions.


On this page we look at some of the most popular 4 star hotels in London. As you can see they're a mixed bunch. Some are modern, purpose built affairs, some are 'character' buildings from a hundred years or so ago.

There is no golden bullet in finding the ideal hotel for you. Just be sure what facilities you really need from the hotel, ascertain your flexibility on districts you will consider and of course don't forget your budget
