london hotel prices

RedBern

looking to book 2 double rooms for 2 nights 12/13 September in London. Been looking at Hotwire prices (96$ per night + taxes) for docklands - but there's no comparison prices on Betterbidding. How much should we expect to pay?

dmg24

What standard of accom are you looking for?

RedBern

4* - looking to treat ourselves!

dmg24

$96 + taxes is cheap for 4* in London, but be aware that Docklands is not particularly central.

Have you done any research on BetterBidding as to which hotel it may be?

RedBern

no - didn't know you could do that! I think it says on Hotwire that there's only 3 hotels in Docklands - (we're going to o2 arena on the Friday night so thought that would be convenient?) ....oh these country bumpkins up the the weekend hey!

Are you sure that it is Docklands? The $96 rate currently showing is for The City.

Crowne Plaza Docklands can be had for the princely sum of £209.16 for 2 rooms for 2 nights including VAT for your dates. Click HERE to go to Intercontinental's 2-for-1 offer. No bidding required.
