Budget-Friendly Hotels

Budget travelers have many options to choose from in the 3-star and 2-star hotel category. Hotels in this segment are typically just outside the BGC area or along its boundaries. These are good places to stay in BGC for those willing to walk or short commute into the district.

Traveler Advice: With savings comes compromise. Hotels in this segment have smaller rooms, road noise and inconsistent cleanliness & services. Many claim walking distances to BGC but this may not be practical due to heat, weather or even safety concerns. Check our hotel listings to see actual locations and reviews before deciding to book.
