What you need to know before you book your airfare and tickets
Flying out of London to enjoy some summer sun? Did you book a cheap flight from Luton and now need a cheap hotel near the airport? Here are a few interesting alternatives from the standard traditional airport hotels. Try the Hillhouse Bed & Breakfast in the centre of Luton. This cozy hotel makes for a convenient pre flight over night stay and the best thing is that it feels like your holiday already started. Another stylish option is the Leaside Gastrotel. It's housed in a grand Victorian building and has a modern decor. They also have a bar and brasserie that serves meals for lunch and dinner. A bit pricey but an absolute gem of a hotel is the St Michael's Manor Hotel. You can have your tea or G&T in the conservatory looking out over the lake in the back, or have a stroll around the lake if the weather is nice. The rooms all have a romantic decor. If it is free, do try to check in to the pink room. It will be a great start of that honeymoon before you jet off on your cheap flight from Luton. Want to get more out of your day before your cheap flight out of Luton, why not check out the nearby village of St Alban's? It is a leafy little town just outside the M25 with a farmers market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Tip: try the Dutch chips from the Flying Dutchman. The owner is not really Dutch but does know a thing or two about Dutch fast food.
