Am taking kids to London for a couple of days before Easter.

Planning to do all the free museums , the Eye and hopefully get some late tickets for War Horse.

Anyone got any ideas on where i could stay preferably a cheap travel lodge where tube or train links into London are really easy.

Thanks for any help

Try the Ramada at South Ruislip, Next door to the tube and reasonably priced, or try Hotels in the Kings Cross Area, just come back from a few days there but prices are variable.
Warning, there are huge numbers of school parties at the museums mostly well behaved especially if from overseas but........
London Eye has a security check for bags etc., which catches people out just be aware, it can slow things down a tad.
Otherwise have a great time.

and ENJOY your sport

You've probably already got it in mind but I can't recommend the Science Museum highly enough! For both adults and kids!

If you want to stay closer to town then the hotels around Russell Square are usually pretty reasonable and its a handy location. The President, The Imperial and the Royal National are all decent value.

There's also the Ibis next to Euston station.

Wrong time of year for the OP but if anyone is ever looking for no frills cheap bed and breakfast in London during July, August and September, have a look at Imperial College London's halls of residence. We stayed there for a gig in Hyde Park and the location is second to none for London's most glamorous quarters.

Always stayed at the St Giles hotel, Not too pricey for its location.

Hamleys toy store, good way for the kids to spend an hour or two.
The wallet might take a hit though!

Way to late now but personally Borehamwood or Watford then get the train in.






It's been fun.
