Advantages: easy access to underground tubes/british museum/oxford streeet

Disadvantages: finding parking might be difficult

I went here for some meeting and thought it was a very clean but still cheap hotel. I travel across UK for various meetings and stay in Travelodge only. I book the rooms well in advance and they usually have £19 room offers. They once even had an offer for £9.
Covent Garden Travelodge is situated in central London and is well accessible by London underground services. It is very close to the British museum and the Covent garden market. Oxford street is hardly a few yards from here. There was a café in the building but there are many other choices just outside the hotel. There are two travelodges just opposite each other- Covent Garden and Holborn and very confusing. They do have an onsite underground parking but looks very unsafe. Its daily rate is I think £18 but its convenient and safer to park in the adjacent NCP. Although it charged £24/ day, if you show the Travelodge receipt you can claim back £12.

Summary: Book in advance to get good deals
