GAMSAT LONDON HOTELS

Hi,

Just wondering if anybody is planning to stay in a london hotel before the exam? My parents live in Herts about hours journey away but am tempted to splash on a hotel to eliminate the stress of the journey in on that morning!

Thanks

I too live about an hour away but think I too will stay in 'town' to avoid that strike/accident/incident filled commute for 8am on the 9th!! it should also allow me to spend some child-free revision time the night before and over breakfast!

I was considering it, theres a hotel right opposite the exam place?

Not keen about staying in a hotel by myself, I will get lonely!

hi,

sorry the £40 one seems to have vanished but it was on www.hotels.com, the website is quite slow but I have used it a few times now and does produce good prices. Currently they have some of the hotels on the list from UCAS, the Blair Hotel for £50 and the Central House Hotel for £48 as well as several other hotels in the victoria area.

Good Luck & Happy New Year!
