World’s Accommodation<br />

By Nick<br />

Here’s a small selection of hotels, hostels, and apartments where you could stay during Worlds in<br />

London, <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

All prices were correct when I checked - but these do change frequently, so may not reflect the<br />

current price. The price per night is the average price for a twin room for two people, unless stated<br />

differently. The average price is calculated from a four night stay, checking in the Thursday 1st<br />

September, and checking out Monday 5th September.<br />

Remember, Worlds is over THREE days, the 2nd September to the 4th September.<br />

The first hotel on the list will be at the venue, the Ibis Styles London Southwark Rose. Obviously,<br />

this is the closest to the venue on the list!<br />

We do have a group rate, which is £170 per night for four nights, for a twin or double room. It isn’t<br />

a great savings, to be frank, as you can currently book the same period for £177 per night.<br />

Includes breakfast and complimentary wi-fi.<br />

Next up is the Novotel London City South. It is literally next door to the Southwark Rose, and<br />

managed by the same team.<br />

The cost per night for a twin or double room comes in around £230 per night, and that doesn’t<br />

include breakfast.<br />

The London Southwark Premiere Inn Hotel is a short walk (5 or 10 minutes) from the venue.<br />

It’s £180 per night for a twin room, and does not include breakfast, but does have wi-fi.<br />

If you’re looking for something cheaper, then the LSE Bankside House may be for you. It’s a student<br />

accommodation, available for rent outside of college term times. It’s a ten minute walk from the<br />

venue.<br />

A twin room with en-suite is £79 per night (£93 including breakfast)<br />

A triple room with en-suite is £106 per night (£125 including breakfast)<br />

A quad room with en-suite is £119 per night (£140 with breakfast)<br />

A single room with en-suite is £60 per night (£71 including breakfast)<br />

A single room with shared bathroom is £38 per night (£45 with breakfast)<br />

They’re pretty good prices, and the quad room in particular works out to less than £30 per person<br />

per night. I’m not sure I’d recommend breakfast for those prices in a student accommodation, and<br />

the website says not all rooms will offer breakfast anyway. Free wi-fi is available.<br />

If you are planning on staying a few weeks, note that these rooms are only available up till mid-<br />

September. I would recommend checking out the website, as they have quite a few other student<br />

rooms available all around London, so if you are staying it may be an idea to stay elsewhere.<br />
