This week Budget Travel ran down some London Hotels for 99 pounds, including the hip B+B Belgravia.

With the pound sterling shining much brighter than the greenback these days, it takes $200 to equal 99 pounds, so finding a deal in London is not easy. The B+B Belgravia looks like a great solution, especially since upgrading to the larger family room only runs 125 pounds.

When you stay at this B&B, you won't be stuck in a drab part of London far from attractions. Belgravia is an upscale area within a stroll of Buckingham Palace and Harrod's, plus the inn is close to an Underground station that will whisk you off to anywhere else.

There's a flat screen cable TV, free Internet access, a DVD and music library in the lounge, and free-flowing coffee and tea all day. Throw in free breakfast and VAT included and this one is quite easy on the budget.

As a "minus," Budget Travel noted that the place doesn't have an elevator, but probably neither would your friend's London flat you'd be crashing at if you couldn't find an affordable place to stay.
