Looking to go to London this weekend. How much can i expect to pay and whats the strategy for London? I used this site previously with success last year on a trip to New york. I'll obviously be using the savings barn link.

Thanks

I forgot to mention not really willing to go any lower than a 4*. Also any area other than the docklands, hammersmith and finsbury.

Thanks

No one with any advice or help?

[wishful]

Keep in mind that I'm pretty new at this myself, so this could just be luck :)

This is what I did for my $90 per night stay from 10/25-10/27 at the 4* Hilton Metropole:

Started with Marble Arch $70 then basically added zones that had 4 & 5 star hotels only and added $5 to each previous bid.

Zones

Marble Arch $70 Rejected

Westminster $75 Rejected

Notting Hill $80 Rejected

Earl's Court $85 Rejected

Regent's Park - $90 Accepted

HOTWIRE seems to have some 4*s starting at $130 a night for this weekend.

Good luck!
