London Hostels in Harrow

Visitors hoping to find cheap accommodation in Harrow will find that the area offers a rich blend of tradition and history within a vibrant and modern setting. Situated on the border of leafy Hertfordshire and boasting swathes of open green space and architecturally impressive buildings, it is hard to believe that the region sits so close to the centre of London. Travellers can get to Waterloo in just over 30 minutes where they will be able to visit some of London's more famous landmarks such as Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.

There are a number of sights which can also be found closer to your accommodation in Harrow. For example, the area is home to one of Britain's finest public schools, Harrow School, based in Harrow-on-the-Hill, which offers three different guided tours during term time. Having educated seven prime ministers, Harrow School retains the grandeur of one of England's most prestigious public schools. The school's Fourth Form Room is Britain's best preserved 17th century school room, and provided the backdrop for magic lessons in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Added to this, the Harrow Museum and Heritage Centre is housed within a 16th century tithe barn and 14th century manor and visitors will even be able to experience 1930s living conditions. For shopping, the St Ann's and St George's shopping centres, located in Harrow town centre, offer a wide range of stores. Elsewhere, travellers should take time to see the local St Mary's Church which is one of the last remaining Saxon churches in England and provides panoramic views across London.
