Going back to London for the 8th time-where should I stay?

I love London and am so excited to return in October. I like to stay in different areas so I can experience something new. I'm traveling with a friend and we're sharing a room so would love to keep the budget on the low side like Premier Inn type budget so less than $250 a night. I have stayed in the Soho/Covent Garden area (Airbnb), Holborn (Airbnb), Ealing (PI & too far), Victoria Station (Cherry Court and Luna Simone), Paddington (PI Hub) and Hammersmith (PI). I would like somewhere safe, obviously, as I love going to shows and will be coming home late, close to public transport and good places to eat. I would love to hear everyone's favorite areas to stay and why so thanks so much in advance.

Covent Garden, St. Giles and Soho are all close to theaters, clubs and restaurants. Bloomsbury is a nice neighborhood, and only a little further out. I’ve stayed in Bloomsbury and walked everywhere, only taking the tube back to the Tottenham Court Road station at the end of the day.
