Accommodation
Delegates are responsible for booking their own accommodation and making travel arrangements.
London hotels often have a range of deals depending on your pocketbook. It is worth keeping in mind that most are very basic rooms at the lower end of the price range. Hotels we’ve used previously include:
Grange Langham Court Hotel
This is a 4 star hotel situated just off London’s famous Regent Street and only a short walk from Oxford Street, Bond Street and Regents Park. Price starts from approx. 125 pounds per night for single ensuite. It is fairly convenient for getting to the college venue.
