The Victoria Inn is a simple three-pearl hotel with a breakfast room and relaxed seating on an outdoor patio. Like other properties along the street, it's in a restored Victorian townhouse, giving its 43 rooms some character (and old-fashioned windows that open). The decor is modern and free smartphones are provided, but some units are on the small side and lack desks or seating areas. Standard amenities include flat-screen TVs, electric kettles, and free Wi-Fi, but there are no mini-fridges. It's in a convenient spot, close to public transportation at Victoria Station and to the nearby Pimlico underground stop. Free continental breakfast is included. Rates might be a bit higher down the street at the Holiday Inn Express London - Victoria, but it also adds a cocktail bar and a fitness center.

The Hotel ibis budget London Whitechapel is a clean and contemporary but basic budget chain hotel with private rooms and limited features. The hotel is situated slightly beyond the city center, but it's just a five-minute walk to the nearest underground station and to trendy Brick Lane. Its 269 guest rooms are compact and simple, but clean and contemporary, with modern amenities like individually controlled AC, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi -- though the shower stalls that open that directly into the bedroom might be a privacy issue for some. Continental breakfast is available for a modest extra fee, and snacks are for sale in the lobby. Budget travelers might also want to consider the Tune Hotels -- like Kings Cross or Paddington -- which are in convenient locations and have standard bathrooms.

The mid-range Holiday Inn London - Whitechapel is a clean, contemporary chain hotel in London's Whitechapel neighborhood. The hotel offers 133 large, modern rooms with minibars, kettles, and free Wi-Fi. Amenities include a fitness center and a full-service bar and restaurant, and the overall ambience is just a notch higher than what most guests would expect from a Holiday Inn. Unfortunately, it's located in a somewhat run-down part of town with few dining options and the area can feel shady at night.

The Glenlyn Guest House is a smarter-than-most, family-run B&B in the pleasant, residential suburbs of North London. Rooms are simple, but clean and well-equipped for this sort of property, with large TVs and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast is also included, and free on-site parking is a bonus. Decor might be a little old-fashioned for some, and the hotel's location isn't great for exploring the city center, but it's a good-value option away from the hubbub of central London.

The Best Western Burns Hotel Kensington is a simple, budget property within walking distance to some of London's most famous attractions, but far enough away that noise isn't an issue in most of the hotel. Some of the 104 rooms are modern, with basic but tasteful decor, and all come with free Wi-Fi. There's no air-conditioning, though, and basement level rooms pick up more street noise which can be disturbing to light sleepers. The hotel's restaurant serves traditional English breakfasts for a fee and a small bar provides drinks and snacks 24/7. The small garden patio is also a charming perk in the heart of the city. As an alternative, travelers wanting more modern interiors and freebies might want to consider Premier Inn London Kensington, though rates may be higher.

The mid-range Holiday Villa Hotel and Suites London is located near a metro stop and well-known Hyde Park in Bayswater. The 92 contemporary rooms have flat-screen TVs and kettles, but they aren’t all equipped with air-conditioning. Perks include a free breakfast, on-site spa, and an Asian restaurant. While this is a great pick in terms of price, location, and number of amenities, there have been enough complaints about staff, cleanliness issues, and overall quality to pause before booking. Travelers may want to consider MStay 27 Paddington Hotel for its modern design, air-conditioned rooms, and reliable Wi-Fi.

Originally built as a private residence in 1851, the Georgian House was converted to a luxury boutique bed and breakfast in 1950, and remains in operation today. The hotel offers 62 rooms with a mix of classic and modern styles, and is made of two adjoining houses: the Georgian House, where guests check in, and the Bower House, where guests enjoy fully furnished flats. While located on a quiet street in Victoria, the Georgian House is conveniently close to both underground stations and popular tourist spots. There is no shortage of hotel alternative in the area. For historical architecture, an elevator, and guaranteed in-room Wi-Fi, it's worth considering the similarly priced Windermere Hotel.

As the leading flagship of sorts amongst the Hotel Indigos of London, this Kensington/Earl’s Court branch seems to have more of a cohesive personality driving its brand. It’s a sassy, rococo-themed luxury hotel with a coquettish manor house theme and playful design quirks. With plenty of modernized baroque furniture in bright hues of pink, lime and teal, this Hotel Indigo stands out boldly above its sisters and is an overall delight -- just beware the occasional maintenance faults. The location on the west edge of Kensington isn't within walking distance of many sights, but the Earl's Court tube station is right nearby.

The Megaro Hotel is a lively upscale property in London’s bustling Kings Cross neighborhood. Positioned opposite St. Pancras Station and King’s Cross, it embraces the changing face of the area with an irreverent, slightly rebellious style. Rooms are spacious for London and have lightwood paneling for the most part, while three Corner Studios are outfitted with an altogether more punk-rock style by British artist Henry Chebaane. There are two bars -- one a self-professed dive bar where guests can enjoy jazz and barrel-aged beverages -- the other is the world’s largest hotel minibar. An Italian eatery rounds off the list of hip communal areas. This is a fun hotel in a phenomenal location, but if you’re missing a gym consider St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel, though prices are much higher.
