London Marriott Hotel Kensington
147C Cromwell Road, Kensington

While it sports typical chain-hotel style, the upper-middle-range London Marriott Hotel Kensington stands out with its location in one of the city's nicer neighborhoods, near tourist attractions and public transportation. Its 216 rooms have traditional decor, mini-fridges, spacious work desks, and flat-screen TVs. However, Wi-Fi and the breakfast buffet both cost extra. The Atrium Restaurant serves American fare, while the bar offers cocktails and international cuisine. There's an on-site gym with cardio and weight-lifting equipment. The property has an Executive Lounge with drinks and snacks, as well as nine event spaces, increasing its appeal for business travelers. Another option in this posh London neighborhood is the comparably priced Nadler Kensington, which has more English character and room amenities fit for longer-term stays, but no gym.

Ibis London Earls Court

Ibis London Earls Court is a towering, value property located between West Brompton and Earl’s Court. It’s outwardly a little rough around the edges and doesn’t look out of place in this slightly shabby side of Earl’s Court. Inside, the hotel has 504 pleasant and homey rooms that are outfitted satellite TVs and free Wi-Fi, but no safe or minibar, and some rooms lack desks. The George and Dragon Pub is similarly no-frills, but does evoke a typical old-fashioned British boozer, with pool tables, wooden seats, and an unpretentious vibe. Breakfast buffet is extensive. Rates are low for this part of London, though the 20-minute train ride to London’s top sights may deter some travelers. Sightseers may want to consider The Z Hotel Victoria in walkable Westminster. 

Radisson Blu Edwardian Kenilworth Hotel

The location of this more-handsome-than-most hotel is certainly its key selling point, balancing an urbane locale with super-quick access to London's lively center. Rooms don't always deliver, especially on space, but liberal use of African walnut and Sicilian marble contribute to an upmarket feel. The hotel's Scoff & Banter is considered one of London's better restaurants, and the general mood of arty sophistication is likely to impress. All in all, it's what you'd expect from an upscale chain hotel, but for something a little more unique at a slightly higher price, take a look at the nearby Montague on the Gardens.

Mercure London Bridge

The Mercure London Bridge, located on busy Southwark Street, is a mid-range chain hotel with modern high-end decor in the lobby, and a combination of 144 dated and renovated rooms. Each room comes standard with free Wi-Fi, 24-hour room service, satellite TV channels, and free toiletries. The hotel has a chic on-site Loft bar and restaurant and there are four meeting rooms available. Limited hotel parking is available for a daily fee. There's a contemporary fitness center open 24-hours a day. Guests are an eight-minute walk from London's Borough Markets and 11-minutes walk from London Bridge station.The nearby Premier Inn London Southwark - Tate Modern is another mid-range option with slightly cheaper rates. 

Stanley House Hotel
19-21 Belgrave Road Pimlico

Stanley House is a no-frills budget property near Victoria station. While its 44 rooms, which lack air-conditioning, vary in style, they share dated decor and show wear and tear. On the plus side, all have flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and small en-suite bathrooms. A full English breakfast is included in the rates, adding to the Stanley's value. Travelers could also check out the nearby Tophams Hotel Belgravia, which is more modern with slightly higher rates.

Lancaster Gate Hotel

The Lancaster Gate Hotel is a 196-room value hotel located in central London, a two-minute walk to Hyde Park and a five-minute walk to the nearest underground station. For the location, the hotel is hard to beat for price. The common areas have been renovated, and are attractive and modern. By contrast, room decor is generic and dated, but rooms are clean, fairly spacious for a central London property, and include AC, flat-screen TVs, and coffee- and tea-making facilities. Note breakfast and Wi-Fi are not included in the room rate. Travelers might also want to consider the nearby Hyde Park Suites, which offer apartment-style rooms with kitchenettes and free Wi-Fi, but the units don’t have air-conditioning. 

Premier Inn London Tower Bridge Hotel
159 Tower Bridge Road Southwark

This 196-room Premier Inn offers all of the brand's standards: clean, functional rooms with high-end Hypnos beds and free Wi-Fi plus a good restaurant serving breakfast and comfort food. This is central London and the area is busy, but the South Bank location means Tower Bridge, the Thames, City Hall, and The Shard are within a quick walk. Light sleepers should request a room facing hotel's rear, as Tower Bridge Road is busy day and night. For more style at slightly higher rates in Southwark, the H10 London Waterloo is a fine choice, though it's a longer walk to the Thames riverfront.

Native Mayfair

Located on a Victorian-era mews with ultra-chic surroundings, the Go Native Mayfair is a set of 11 upscale, fully serviced apartments. This Mayfair branch of the Go Native chain is an unexpected find in a neighborhood where five-star hotels, couture brands, and world-renowned restaurants dominate, and it's a four-minute walk from Hyde Park. The attractive, modern one- and two-bedroom units include full kitchens, laundry facilities, and large marble bathrooms. The smart units are perfect for families and those who like to feel like locals, but they’re quite expensive and lack amenities and on-site staff. For a more traditional hotel setup in the same neighborhood, travelers may prefer the Flemings Mayfair, with modern sensibilities and an on-site bar, restaurant, and fitness center.

Ibis London Blackfriars Hotel

The budget Ibis London Blackfriars is a solid option with a decent location in Southbank that's within walking distance of several attractions and well serviced by public transportation. Its 297 minimalist rooms aren’t visually appealing, but they offer flat-screen TVs, kettles, and free Wi-Fi. Note that bathrooms are cramped and complaints have been made about noise due to thin walls. The bar and restaurant are trendy, offering breakfast (for a fee), lunch, and dinner. With no business center, it’s surprising that business guests are drawn to the property. However, it provides a good value and a convenient location, despite its basic amenities and rooms. Premier Inn London Victoria Hotel in Pimlico is a good alternative with similar features. 

Kensington Gardens Hotel

Kensington Gardens Hotel is a no-frills budget hotel set in a typical Victorian townhouse in the leafy central-west neighborhood of Bayswater. While there's little that distinguishes this property from many in the area, a 2015 renovation means rooms -- and especially bathrooms -- are clean and well-presented. There's not much in terms of facilities beyond the rooms, however, and the lack of an elevator can mean lots of stair-climbing. Overall, though, the location allows for easy access to central London and the competitive rates make this a good pick for the budget-conscious.
