Just to add another accommodation option to the list - The Stuart Hotel opened last year (I think) and I stayed there last time I ventured to Luton.  It"s just a few minutes walk from the casino, in a converted office block over the other side of the main road from Days/Icon and is available at around £45 per night.

Thanks...but it"s currently £90pn for a Double Room [or £75 for a Single] on Laterooms over our dates which is why I didn"t include it.

However, alternative booking sites may have it cheaper.

Hi Paulie

Have just booked Premier Inn Luton Centre for £35 on the Saturday night (non flexible) but also noticed that it"s only £56 (flexible). Prices may have come down since.

Cheers

TripAdvisor bods have slagged it off no end. I almost changed from Hotel Residence to Stuart, but then saw the reviews and stuck with my first choice.
