Being chosen to host the Olympics is a big deal; it is also an expensive deal. The Mayor of London hugely under-estimated its cost at 4 billion, but the hope is that increased revenue from visitors will balance the books. And no industry is more likely to boom than accommodation in London. Luckily it is plentiful, being the second most visited city in the world our capital literally teems with hotels and guest houses.
Although London accommodation may be plentiful, in 2012 it will be in high demand. If you are looking for specific places to stay within that time, then book early to avoid disappointment and keep the costs down.
So where is the best place to stay? This depends on many factors, not least your budget. Decide whether you want to be in the thick of the action and are prepared to pay for the privilege, or whether you are happy to travel in from further afield and save money on your hotel bill.
Accommodation in London comes in many different guises, from five star hotels to bed and breakfasts, self catering apartments, caravans, hostels and even camping. Budget chain hotels are always popular, such as Premier Inn, Holiday Inn and Travel Lodge, but these will get booked up fast as many are conveniently positioned and a reasonable price.
The Central Zone will see a variety of events including football and tennis. Hyde Park apartments will virtually overlook the Park which hosts the triathlon, yet it is still only a short train journey to the other two zones. Train links are excellent via Paddington Station and the area is well furnished with restaurants and cafes.
The sporting action won’t all be taking place in Stratford. London will be divided into three main zones for Olympic venues, the remaining two being the River Zone along the Thames and the Central Zone formed from the remaining venues. The Olympic Zone will house the new Olympic Park Stadium and it is likely to be the most heavily booked area in London.
If you are looking to stay near Hyde Park apartments can be found in the Bayswater area of Paddington and Queensway and, of course, the famous Notting Hill Market is on your doorstep if you need a break from sporting excitement.
London has always been a vibrant, happening city, but come 2012 it will be the number one destination in the world. So avoid disappointment and book your accommodation early!
