Working in London - accomodation

[Denny]

I know a good brollie that recommends a great 'sleeping rough under the Embankment Station' and 'homlessness project meal deals' and allows contractors non-receipted £50 per night accommodation dispensation and a £10 per night non-receipted food allowance. This living style also implies that you have 'opted out' of normal living arrangements and could be a critical pointer for being outside IR35.

Got to be the way to go in summer and there's no commuting costs to worry about too. Make sure those past their sell-by date sandwiches ares still fresh though (I'd avoid the ones with fish).

Thanks - that gives me a good idea.

There's normally a fair amount of accommodation on here which will give you an idea of prices in different areas of London.

If you were faced with working in central London for 12 months on contract what are the viable accomodation options?

How much is a decent hotel.
How much is a studio flat rental?
How much is a flat share etc.

Thanks

Decent Hotel - from £60 per night
Studio flat - from £600 per month depending on area
Flat share - from £400 per month depending on area

These are minimum prices, for the basics.

Being older I would go for a studio, if you are younger go for the flat share.

will completely depend on where you are looking to live!!!

try loot online for details of house/flat shares, bedsits and studio flat rentals.
