Mayfair is one of London's most prestigious districts, but budget travelers can still find affordable places to sleep near its upscale streets. Expect compact rooms with essential amenities-free WiFi, tea/coffee makers, and en-suite bathrooms-at hotels within walking distance of Oxford Street, Buckingham Palace, and Victoria Station. Rates start around £80-£120 per night for a double room, though prices vary by season. To save, book directly or use last-minute deals on hotel booking sites.
