2. Premier Inn London Waterloo (from USD 169)

Located in the heart of London, the Premier Inn London Waterloo offers you a comfortable and affordable stay at a prime spot.

Eye Spy...

For many of these hotels, rooms that offer a view of the Eye are in short supply. You have to be high enough, first of all, and you have to be facing the right direction. It’s important to book early, and to specify that you would like a room with a view of the Eye!
