Where to stay in London?
Looking at Bayswater and Kensington areas. My budget is hopefully $350 a night for the 2 rooms.
Answer:
A 1 or 2 bedroom apartment will give you much more space, a full kitchen (not for major cooking but for the washer/dryer and cost less than two rooms just about anywhere.
There are lots of excellent areas – probably the most convenient would be South Kensington, Victoria, Covent Garden, Bloomsbury, Knightsbridge and Mayfair. Knightsbridge and Mayfair would generally have the most expensive properties
London is an easy city to get around and build your own itinerary. You will save a lot of money getting to stay in a really nice area. Plus you save money on food by having a kitchen for snacks and drinks and such.
You must go to biddingfortravel and look at the listing of hotels they have for 4* zones in various parts of London. Decide if you would be happy enough with any of those hotels and decide what that is worth to you. You then bid at a price cut to the lowest-priced room you see for that particular area. Again, biddingfortravel will give you a better idea of just how much that discount should be, but we aren’t talking 10%, we are talking more like 50%.

Why Travel Insurance is Important?
Most people take travel insurance lightly and never discuss travel insurance in detail with their travel agents. It is important to know what your travel insurance covers you against in the event of any unforeseen situations which may subject you to a financial loss or otherwise.
Travel insurance covers different features and it is up to you to choose and ensure you are adequately covered. The first and most common is Trip Cancellation/Interruption coverage. Most of these policies cover cancellations due to weather, sudden illness, death and emergencies whilst at home or abroad.
Another common type of travel insurance is for medical emergencies. This type of coverage is particularly useful if you plan on traveling to underdeveloped countries, or for individuals with an on going illness that might require medical attention at some point during the trip. These policies will reimburse you for the cost of doctor visits, medication, and sometimes even medical evacuation out of the country. It’s best to check with your insurance provider regarding the details, as travel health coverage policies vary widely.
It is also possible to obtain travel insurance that will cover non-refundable tickets in the event that a trip has to be cancelled for any number of reasons. Some coverage plans will sometimes cover missed connections as well, which can be a lifesaver in the event of a flight delay or over-crowded and/or confusing airport terminal.
