Overview
There are a ton of reasons to visit London, but the reality is the city is so expansive that it’s awfully hard to get from point A to point B. It’s also quite costly to experience London, therefore travelers need to budget appropriately. However, just because a traveler is headed to London and working on a budget doesn’t mean they don’t have high expectations for where they’re staying. The expectation in London is still a very hospitable staff helping turn requests into reality, a comfortable place to rest up, and to stay in a place with great character. The good news is lots of places avail themselves to the needs of travelers, and one such place is the Heathrow Hostel.
The Heathrow Hostel is exactly what it sounds like – a great hotel located near London’s famous Heathrow airport. The multilingual staff is a great touch because folks are coming from many different places around the world, and with transportation to and from the airport, it’s one less thing to worry about in terms of when arriving and departing. There is a pub on site, which is one of the best ways to enjoy English culture. The hotel itself is in a beautifully designed building that just screams “English architecture.” It has a wonderful, quaint feel to it that makes travelers feel relaxed in a way they wouldn’t in sterile London hotels.
Taking a trip to London is something everyone should do at some point in their life. Having a great stay can happen with a booking at the Heathrow Hostel.
