B&B in London is available across all London hotel districts, but the best value is found at several budget hotel districts where this type of accommodation dominates.
If a cheap price is your dominant requirement for London B&B accommodation we have a separate dedicated page looking at the cheapest B&B hotels in London.
If you want a more traditional Bed and Breakfast hotel (typically found outside London) we have a dedicated page looking at quality B&B hotels in Central London.
Argyle Square opposite Kings Cross & St Pancras Stations has some of the best value bed and breakfast hotels in London.
A predominantly budget area catering for the budget traveller, very convenient for those flying into Heathrow Airport.
On the north side of Hyde Park, Bayswater is an excellent budget area with cheap rooms during the week. Prices go up at weekends.
The most central of the B&B areas for which you pay a small premium. Cheap airport buses direct to all 4 major London airports.
Neighbouring Bayswater with Sussex Gardens one B&B after another. Paddington station is the terminus of the Heathrow Express.
The price differential between the cheapest B&B in London at around £55 for a double/twin room with breakfast to £150 per night or more reflects the wide difference in offerings between hotels advertising themselves as B&Bs, or to give their full name: Bed and Breakfast hotels.
Be not in doubt, the vast majority are not homely houses with a couple of rooms rented out by attentive family owners you find outside London. These are essentially small simple hotels with between 15 and 50 rooms, the very cheapest ones can be very basic.
There are still a handful of traditional family B&Bs, most of these are at the top end of the price scale and are no cheaper than neighbouring 3 or 4 star hotels often. London Bed and Breakfast hotels are typically 4, 5 or 6 storey Victorian terraced houses. Many will not have lifts or air-conditioning.
The hotel grading system is not helpful with B&Bs graded in a totally separate system to 2 or 3 star hotels that serve breakfast. In budget hotel districts like Earl's Court and Bayswater the terms B&B and 3 star hotel in the independent sector are almost interchangeable.
