Hotel for London Pre-reg exam

[Revolutionnaire]

The Address of the exam in September is:

80 Vincent Square
London
Sw1p 2pe

I'm trying to find a good hotel where I can sleep well before the night of the exam at a reasonable price without bed bugs, wi-fi and a good study desk.

Can anyone recommend a decent place to stay? Otherwise it's a 4 hour journey to the exam centre in the morning.

I stayed at Wellington hotel, just 2 minutes walk from the halls. Victorian style hotel with no ensuite, common dormitory stile bathrooms. 60 quid for a night double room, had to share with a friend. Very small room, but has a table and a sink and a TV (if you intend to watch) No lift. Breakfast included. I gave this sumer, so very hot and even after keeping the windows open and just in your shorts I could barely sleep (added to the exam tension) No wifi. I carried a mobile broadband with me so could check my mails, watch some funny videos to relax, etc. To be frank I could hardly do any revision the night before. I advice complete all your studies before you reach the place and relax the night before and you will be fine.

p.s: never book through any travel websites, book direct by visiting the hotel's website or by calling them. It is central London so the cheapest was 60 quid.

Good advice.

You might like to try Tripadvisor though..

Yes, it's good advice.

Unfortunately when I went to book the place seeing how close it was on Google Maps it was already taken. Got my letter a day later then others.

Tripadvisor as been very good and prevented me from booking rooms because of the reviews of other hostels.

The other choice is to go for something with good reviews that's £90+ a night. Where did other people stay?

This is an important time for you, and sometimes in life it's not just all about getting the cheapest deal.
Why don't you just spend a few quid on a nice place and relax. It will pay off in the long run...believe me.

Fleeg.

Believe there is a very good B&B in Victoria. Look for B&Bs on trip advisor.

Ok, it's booked.
For £91 at the best tripadvisor.co.uk place I could find that's far from the railway tracks.
