LondonTown.com has discounted a selection of London hotels to make visits to the Festival of the World more affordable this summer

-- /EPR NETWORK/ -- The Festival of the World is a dynamic, multi-faceted, summer-long festival in celebration of the London 2012 Olympics. From 1 June to 9 September the Southbank Centre will be overrun with artist creations including the UK's largest ever poetry event and an urban beach with a twist.

Although art doesn't seem like an obvious choice to celebrate the world's largest sporting event, Festival of the World was the brainchild of Baron Pierre de Coubertin who believed art could inspire young people in the same way as sport. Many of the artistic displays and interactive exhibits will have a sporting theme and plenty will be aimed directly at children.

LondonTown.com suggests turning a visit to the capital into a holiday and to help visitors on their way it has reduced rates at some of the most stylish and well located London hotels throughout the summer.

The Southbank Centre is located right in the heart of London just a short and scenic walk over Waterloo Bridge from Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, Leicester Square and Charing Cross. London hotels in such a central location can often be out of most people's price ranges, but thanks to LondonTown.com's discounts, central London hotels are now more affordable.

For example, the three-star, highly recommended Strand Palace Hotel London is now just £95 per room, per night thanks to an impressive discount of 77% courtesy of LondonTown.com. This 1930s Art Deco hotel is a real customer favourite. It has 783 well-appointed rooms a late-license bar and brasserie restaurant.

If you want a truly memorable experience in the capital LondonTown.com suggests One Aldwych. This five-star modern, luxury design hotel lays claim to an award-winning restaurant, a stylish fitness centre and plush rooms and communal areas. It's location of 1 Aldwych – hence the name – is one to be reckoned with.
