LONDON hotel near Trafalgar (Nat Gallery area)

Pre RS London tour in Feb 26, I am looking for a 2 day stay near my art (Nat Gallery, Somerset House, etc.) Trafalgar, Covent Garden?

I'd like to pay only about $200 for 2 nights. Lots of Booking.com, Expedia, United air, etc. offers. Cheapest offers are windowless!! Not for me.

Any suggestions in this area? Transport is also a consideration.

That is not a realistic price these days for a hotel room in that area. But I have a suggestion if you’re willing to rough it a bit. Over forty years ago I had a great time at the Astor Museum Hostel right across from the British Museum. These days I stay at Montague on the Gardens a few doors down for a lot more quid, but I see that the Astor Hostel is still there, although a bit more than the 10 pounds a night I paid back in the day, and I wouldn’t mind staying there again. Might be fun for a night or two.
