About the Author This article was written by the author for www.lth-hotels.com, official website of London Town Hotels Limited, fastest growing London hotels group.
Global credit crunch has resulted in an increased number of favourable offers for travellers. Cheap airline flights, train and coach fares, hotels, restaurants, theatre, concert and exhibition tickets – to mention just a few – have created a competitive range of options available to those who are looking for affordable luxury for their holiday or city break.
Expedia is arguably the most prominent website for packages, including flights, hotels, car hires and other useful options. However, today research shows that even cheaper deals can be arranged when things are booked directly and separately, creating your own package. For example, London is a popular destination as pound is weak and cheap airlines are offering convenient and efficient travel. But there are also trains and coaches, providing access to greater England, with fares tumbling. Special offers are just another example of how companies strive to complete in difficult times. These days, special offers are probably the best thing to keep an eye on. Ryanair and EasyJet, both flying to London, often feature offers where tickets can be bought for as cheap as £20. Central London hotels offer affordable luxury for a price much more favourable to traveller than it was half-a-year ago. Greater effort is channelled through all customer service industries and these should not be overlooked when creating own travel package.
For those who like to get the best deals, try to compare. Don’t be surprised to discover that when booked directly, through official website, central London hotels as well as rail tickets or theatre tickets, are most of the time cheaper when combined rather than when buying a package through sites like Expedia. When booked directly, guests can expect some nice additional perks like free upgrade or breakfast. And this, measured against the total cost of the package, might result to extra cash for London entertainment and sightseeing.

Is London Shopping Expensive?
By: Madhukar Shah | 28/08/2008 | HotelsFrom Selfridge's to Primark, London shopping presents a range of options in central areas. The prices vary, but the most popular Oxford Street and High Street Kensington shopping is affordable. Selfridge's tends to be pricy so it’s good to visit during sales and maybe get something more exclusive for a better price. Knightsbridge is expensive with Harrods, Harvey Nichols and Burberry occupying the place.
