Heathrow hotel

[Greedyfly]

I am hopefully going to be at Heathrow on the 29th April for 3 nights and need a cheap hotel/B&B close by to stay at - can anyone recommend any where and I am on a tight budget for this so be gentle ; )   Thanks

I can't recommend any particular hotel, but try Expedia.com for a deal. Bear in mind that the less convenient they are for business people, the cheaper they will be.  However, you need to balance that with getting there yourself.  Heathrow is right on the edge of the "Metropolitan Area', which if a Black Cab goes out of there is a fifty plus quid surcharge (and yes, I've had the argument!).  Most decent hotels will be served by a free shuttle, but check when booking.  Also, book now as Heathrow hotels fill up quickly, and now is the time to get decent prices.

I always use www.abcholidayextras.com who have a never undersold policy.  I check out their airport hotels and, hwoever looks cheap, I check out that hotel's own website.  Last time, I got it for the same price but the hotel was offering a free breakfast.  In January, I.m getting a five star hotel for a night, 15 nights parking and breakfast for �99.  Just a tip, If tempted by the Quality Inn at Slough - fight the temptation.
