Located just 8 miles northwest of Central London, the town draws large numbers of visitors thanks to its iconic sports and entertainments arenas, Wembley Stadium and Wembley Arena, both of which host prestigious events throughout the year. Most of the hotels in Wembley are concentrated around these two neighbouring venues and the nearby transport hubs, which provide easy access to the rest of the city. For budget-conscious travellers needing somewhere to stay, prices inevitably sky-rocket for event days, but there are still plenty of good deals available if you book long enough in advance. Here are three of the best cheap hotels in Wembley below.
OYO The Green Man Pub And Hotel
A short walk from the stadium, this is an ideal spot for those simply needing a bed for the night without any frills. The rooms are basic but functional, providing just what you need to rest after a long day of sightseeing or a late-finishing event. There are no lavish amenities here, but the pub downstairs serves up hearty comfort food, plus a selection of lagers and ales, adding a dash of local charm. If you’re not looking for luxury, but just a place to sleep, it gets the job done. From GBP 84 per night.

A modern, stylish hotel just a short hop from the mighty roars of Wembley Stadium, the 4-star Novotel is an ideal base if you’re in town, offering contemporary, fuss-free rooms with plenty of space to stretch out. There’s an indoor pool, gym, and a lively restaurant serving British cuisine. Guest rooms feature sleek decor, but it’s the location that’s the star – you’re mere minutes from the turnstiles, making it an easy journey home after a late-night concert or sports match that’s gone into overtime. Even better if you’re driving, as there’s a small amount of free parking in the hotel’s underground car park. If you manage to snag a cheap rate here, it’s undoubtedly one of the best-value spots in the area. From GBP 97 per night.
