Cheap places around Euston station
Jump to: Newest in thread
Just wondered if anyone knows of any cheap ish places to stop for a night in London near to Euston or easy to get to Euston? Or even any clubs that have accommodation? I'm stuck in London on Saturday night with nowhere to stay...yet! Everywhere I've looked, even the crappy places are like £100+...don't know if it's cos I'm from up north and can get a travelodge for about £40 a night up here or if I'm being cheap! Hoping to go for drinks/a night out with fellow fabbers or to a club but can't properly plan anything until I sort accomodation out first or if anyone offers to put me up for a night which I doubt will happen...I'd really appreciate suggestions if anyone knows of any hotels/b&bs etc |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
London is expensive and near the stations can be more expensive.
Try looking for last minute or late rooms and you'll get somewhere better.
Travelodge, Prem Inns and the other chains don't really reduce their London rates as people choose them as they know the name. Look for something that isn't a chain.

"There are a few places in the Finsbury park area.Not sure what they are like now,as they use to be rough.but they seem to have done them up these days.Oh and 3 stops from Euston"
There is a Best Western (Marked as BW Highbury) at Finsbury Park now. The B&Bs are all still there and a lot have been tarted up. I was wondering whether going further out to Brent Cross would make things cheaper. Euston on the Northern Line from there.

Last minute is about the only way of staying reasonable in London.
100 a night is about the cheapest you'll get but with last miniyte it will be a very nice place compared to a place that's worse than a student bed sit |

Euston quite accessible on the tube network so anywhere that goes via euston.. Try SE London, greenwich Bermondsey, london bridge or Camden swiss cottage finsbury park edgware road etc |

"As other posters have mentioned try laterooms.com,lastminute.com or bookings.com.
"
Or Trivago. Bookings.com is better and you can get great last min deals xx |

Thank you for so many suggestions! I shall have a look on the sites mentioned now and see what I find...and I'll bloody make sure I book the same train back as my friends next time, a simple mistake I made of booking the train back for the next day is proving to be an expensive mistake! I blame fab for the lack of concentration!!! Haha! Thank you all for the suggestions, much appreciated  |

Hi Sofia.
The best hotel I could find is actually a serviced apartment. So you get the entire studio flat all to yourself. This one is in Goodge street, 2 stops down from euston on the northern line. (5 mins tops)

I'm the opposite, when I lived up North, I used to book months in advance and get the Premier Inn deals.
I stayed at Heathrow a couple of weeks ago and got the Holiday Inn for £69 for 2 including their £29 breakfast each! |

I worked at ST. Pancras when they refurbished it and stayed there plenty of times. The ibis was about £80 and there are cheaper places at kings cross - 5 mins walk. |
