hullo fellow PJ fans,


can anyone please tell me where i find a cheap hostel nearby the London venue?

hopefully near a Tube station!!

i am flying into Heathrow the day of the show and i need to sort this out soon...


Previously, i stayed somewhere in Earl's Court for the 2000 London PJ gig but i can't remember how far from the venue it was?

i would be most grateful for any help....

it would also be fun to stay in a hostel where there are other fans congregating!!!


thanks!

    Wembley isn't really a hostel area. The Wembley budget hotels aside, it's probably best to look for a place you don't have to change in the Tube to get to- this being the case, you'll want to look at Paddington/Bayswater or Euston/St Pancras.

    There's a bunch of us at Central Hostel in Bayswater.

    Hi,
    I stay in the Hostel No. 8, located only two tube-stations away from Wembley, station is called "Dollis Hill Station". The hostel-adress is 305 High Rd, Willesden. You can book it through hostelworld.com.
    I booked a two bed Mixed Dorm for 25 Euros per person from 18. to 19. June.
    Maybe we see us there, this hostel is cheap and very near to the wembley Arena.
    SOMEONE ELSE STAYING THERE??

    I stayed there for the Dave Matthews concert last night. Word of warning- the hostel is an absolute dump. It is in a very dodgy area of the city, you would think it was a third world country. The Hostel is run down and shabby. The rooms themselves weren't too dirty, but one look at the toilet will make you wish you had taken a piss outside. You won't even consider having a shower in there. You should seriously consider cancelling and booking somewhere with a good reputation closer to the centre of the city, the extra ten minutes on the tube will be worth it.

    Thanks for the info!
    I cancelled my stay at hostel No.8. I am now staying at Kingsland Hotel, only one tube station north from Wembley (Kingsbury).
    55 pounds for a single room, but I want to be in a safe area.

    I stayed at the Senator Hotel the last time I was in London, which I think is in Bayswater (correct me if I am wrong). It's right near Hyde Park and the tube stop was Lancater Gate. I think it was a good deal $ wise.

    Screw hostels, didn't you see that movie??
