Three Star Plus Accommodation at Jurys Inn, Islington:

All rooms have a double and a single bed allowing double or twin occupation or a family of three.  A few rooms have a double bed and a double sofa bed and can therefore take a family of four.  All rooms are en-suite and have plasma TV and tea/ coffee making facilities. All rooms have been recently refurbished to a very high standard.  The hotel has a bar, restaurant  and 24 hour Reception.  The Saturday evening dinner will be served in the hotel restaurant.

Jurys Inn Islington is my base hotel for the weekend and the post race facilities (shower, changing and buffet meal) will be located here with a coach shuttle transfer from the Finish.

All bookings will be located at Jurys Inn, Islington.

Single Accommodation:

Single runners have the choice of sharing a twin room with another runner at the normal adult price, or if you prefer not to share, having a double or twin room for single occupancy at the higher price shown in the price list.

Extra nights:

Most people have work and other commitments, which make a one night stay their only option.  If you are able to stay longer there are plenty of reasons to do so;

You could travel down on Friday, go early to the Marathon Exhibition to register then have time free for sight seeing, shopping or to see a show.

You might like to stay Sunday night to get a good night’s rest before making the return journey.  In fact I recommend this option particularly if you intend to drive home.

Whatever the reason, accommodation is available at the hotel on a bed and breakfast basis, with prices listed on the Booking Form & Prices page

Family Rooms
Children of sixteen years and under may share a room with their parents at a reduced price.  Most rooms will accommodate a couple with one child and I have a few rooms which can take a family of four (a double bed with a double sofa bed).  If you have a large family please discuss the rooming options with me before booking.


Travel To London

In the early years of the London Marathon, most runners travelled by coach, with only a handful of independent travellers.  Recently, with the advent of budget air travel and availability of low cost rail travel for advance booking, there has been a shift towards independent travel.  In response to this I provide coach pick ups at Luton and Stansted airports, as well as mainline rail stations and coach stations in Central London to transfer to the Marathon Exhibition for Registration.

This year I will be providing coach travel from Lancashire and Yorkshire with pick-ups en route through the Midlands.  These coaches will travel direct to the Marathon Exhibition with ample time for runners to register before continuing to the hotel.

For runners travelling by car, there is a secure car park close to the hotel with preferential rates for hotel guests.  The coach transfer to the Exhibition will be available from the hotel at midday on Saturday.  The hotel is situated outside the Congestion Charge Zone.
