LONDON RATES ARE FALLING DOWN

New York, October 10, 2007 - Although the dollar remains at historic lows against the British pound, London hotel rates can still be within reach. EuroCheapo (http://www.eurocheapo.com), the web's premiere guide to European budget travel, has plenty of affordable recommendations. 

"Visiting London on a budget may seem daunting, but with proper research and guidance, you can still see Big Ben without shedding too many pounds," says Tom Meyers, Editor of EuroCheapo.

The site's budget hotel search engine, CheapoSearch -- the first tool of its kind created for budget accommodations -- lets users find and book small hotels, pensions, B&B's, and hostels throughout Europe, and compares rates from multiple reservation agencies.

A recent CheapoSearch for London (http://www.eurocheapo.com/london) in late November* turned up 73 hotels for under $150 per night for a two-night stay. Among those personally visited and reviewed by EuroCheapo's editors: 

1) The Caring Hotel, $110
Rooms sparkle with clean and cozy furnishings in leafy Bayswater.

2) Queen's Park Hotel, $132
Great for business travelers, this hotel is steps from Kensington Gardens.

3) Lord Kensington, $137
A quiet gem for mature travelers, close to transportation.

4) Georgian House Hotel, $146
Think old Georgian-style house with close proximity to many museums.

5) The Garth Hotel, $122
Relax at this friendly B&B in the popular Bloomsbury neighborhood.

In addition, EuroCheapo's guide to budget travel in London provides readers with detailed information on free sights and museums, transportation discounts, and other ways to save when visiting London.
