  Was a fan, but no longer!

  Current

  This is one hotel in two locations - neither really Covent Garden! Both are really in the Holborn area, which is still pretty central, but you'll have a 10 min walk to Covent Garden.
  
  If you can get the rooms for a bargain price, then you can't really complain, but when you're paying the standard £110 a night, I would have expected a bit more. Plastic sheets covering the mattresses - making them crinkle when you move and causing you to sweat in the night (especially in the summer) - say it all really. The rooms are sparsely furnished, and have a bit of an unfinished feel about them. Family rooms can only be found in one of the hotels (the one further from Covent Garden), and if you turn up having lugged all your bags and kids to a hotel, only to be told that you've got to go another 200m up the road isn't really the best way to welcome you to the hotel. I can't believe they don't highlight this on their web site.
  
  Oh well. I've found another budget hotel now, which is miles better - but I'm keeping it to myself, as I don't want it to get fully booked!

  good value

  Current

  for a place to stay in london you can not beat a travelodge. there are some great deals to be had at the moment for the end of this year from £9 on certain dates and often for £29 if you book well in advance. The family rooms are ok, not huge but all you need is a place to sleep after an exciting day out and the standard of this one is generally good, it is close to lots of stuff you will want to see. Do not expect it to be plush, you do get what you pay for here, but what you have saved in accomodation costs you can spend on entertaining the kids. Would stay again for the right room rate, its better than some i have stayed at.

  Travelodge @ Covent Garden

  Current

  I stayed there when I went to London a few months ago and I really enjoyed it. I booked it early from the internet so it only cost me £29 per night. It was a great bargain in terms of what you get and the location of it. The double bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was of a reasonable size and there was still plenty of space in the room which was big enough to practice yoga! Tea making facility was also available in the room. The only thing with Travelodge is that the check in time is 3pm so if you arrive too early you would be charged £10 extra to be able to check in earlier.

  Great Location, Basic Accommodation

  Current

  I stayed at the Travelodge Covent Garden for one night and would rate the location as the best thing about it.
  
  Travelodges offer cheap accommodation throughout the UK. The rooms are always clean and feature a TV, tea and coffee facilities, and a private bathroom.
  
  We stayed in a family room, which provided a double bed and a sofa bed which could accommodate 2 people.
  
  Both beds were comfortable and the room was a good size too.
  
  The bathroom did look a little tired but the location was excellent - just a short stroll from Holborn tube station to shops, bars and restaurants and close to Long Acre and Covent Garden itself.
  
  I would recommend this hotel if you are visiting London on a budget, especially if you want to sample the entertainment on offer in the capital.
