Having only a 1bed flat I often book hotels for family and friends when they come to visit. Being london this can be expensive. We are all ware of travelodges good deals, 29 a room if you book in advance. But there are a few of their hotels in london and the quality varies hugely. For example I put some friends up in the covent garden one, it was the old part and it stank! The location was great but I have never been able to fault this one. You may think its not near anything but itâ¬"s a short walk to kings cross and a short taxi ride to anywhere. This used to be a thistle hotel before travelodge aquired it so the rooms have marble bathrooms and are of a much better standard than most travelodges. There is a decent bar downstairs that stays open late too. This is one of the best travelodges for london so if you canâ¬"t decide between them this one is the best quality inside. For location the covent garden one canâ¬"t be beaten but it was not nice inside.Having only a 1bed flat I often book hotels for family and friends when they come to visit.

In February 2007 and 2008 I stayed in the Hilton Hotel Islington on business. It offers all amenities which you expect from this class of hotels: Friendly staff and large fully equipped rooms.

Rooms can be booked with or without the excellent buffet style breakfast. Also dinner at the Hilton Restaurant can be included in your room booking. However, plenty of restaurants such as Thai Sqaure, ASK Pizza or Pizza Express can be found in the neigbourhood.

You probably get the best rates when booking online, but be prepared that your credit card will be charged directly once the room is confirmed.

Be prepared that the room rates can be quite expensive when a fair or similar event takes place in the adjacent Business Design Centre.

DIRECTIONS:
The Hilton Hotel Islington is located in London's fashionable Islington district. The nearest tube station is Angel (Northern line) which can be reached in about 5 minutes on foot from the Hotel.
