In the Ibis next to the stadium for Sat & Sun nights - £125 without breakfast when we booked it. Moving up the road to the Premier Inn on the Monday night, as for £25 it was cheaper to stay another day than book on a train coming back to Wigan on the Bank Holiday! Two return tickets and three nights stay for £200 total.

Have stayed in that Ibis once previously, but of the local pubs, have only been into the Wetherspoons on Wembley High Road, which I expect will be pretty busy on match day.

Also, for those staying in Wembley beyond the Saturday, it's worth noting that Wembley Park underground will be effectively closed on Sunday 25th, though there's replacement bus services.

Stayed in the Hilton Last year and booked late. Was expensive but worth it. I booked it again this year back when we drew Widnes £100 per night for a double inc breakfast. My mate went to book it the night of the semi final and it had shot up to £230 per night.

Still need somewhere to indulge myself in alcohol later hoping we can get close to the Wetherspoons on the High Street

train from lake district £34 each way first class,staying 3 nights at the waldorf in the city,2 club wembley packages @£238 each.had club wembley 2 years ago worth every penny.

St. james's Tavern near Piccadilly circus always seems to be the mecca for Wigan fans on Friday evening, and then again early on match day.

All this talk of Tube to Wembley... WOT.
Get the tube by all means from wherever you're staying, but to Marylebone. Then Chiltern line to Wembley Stadium. 1 stop, 10 mins, station next to stadium... couple of minutes walk to the North West entrances.

Special trains, in addition to scheduled services run to and from the stadium on the day.

You can also use zone 4 travel card on the train.

You can be knocking the froth* of your first celebration pint in Central Smoke less than 30 mins after the final whistle.

*metaphorically speaking

I'll do a day trip too.

Train to Euston. Then ride around on the tube having a pint in a different areas. Probably have a pint in the Red Lion on Whitehall where discerning rugby fans tend to go, good area for a few photo opportunities. Then tube to Baker Street. Soak up a bit of atmosphere with a couple of jars, then you can get a fast tube train to Wembley, buy a couple of cans and drink them on Wembley way. Tube back to Euston via Baker Street and see if I can have time for a pint before the train home.
