Best Clubs in London for Students on a Budget

Finding the best clubs as a student on a budget is a tricky task. On one hand, you want the best clubs and the hottest parties. On the other hand, you also like the idea of being able to afford food for the rest of the month. That’s why we’re here to bring you the best clubs in London for students on a budget. Keep in mind, these aren’t just any clubs, they’re some of the best in Central London.

Cirque Le Soir

Cirque Le Soir on Ganton Street, just off Carnaby Street, is one of the most famous clubs in Central London, known for performers working the room all night alongside hip-hop and RnB. It opens on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, so there is a midweek option as well as the weekend.

On a budget, the guestlist is the way in: it is reserved for ladies and free to join through us, and we confirm any door fee for your night before you go. Tables start from an £800 minimum spend, which can work out reasonably per person across a bigger group.

Selene London

Selene London on Winsley Street, a few minutes from Oxford Circus, has an ancient Greece theme and private bowling lanes, and plays hip-hop and RnB. It opens on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, so it works for a Thursday or a Sunday too.

The guestlist is reserved for ladies and free to join through us, and tables start from an £800 minimum spend. Our Selene London guestlist guide covers the door.

Rex Rooms

Rex Rooms is one of the hottest clubs in Chelsea at the moment. The high-end exclusive club took over the legendary spot at 151 King’s Road, following in the footsteps of its predecessor, 151 Club: a favourite for Prince Harry and Prince William. With a strong legacy to live up to, Rex Rooms packs quite a punch, mixing the vintage Rock ’n’ Roll aesthetic and modern luxury, and hosting big names like Mick Jagger and Machine Gun Kelly.

Tables at Rex Rooms start at £1,000 minimum spend. The Rex Rooms guestlist option comes with an entry fee of £20 for girls and £30 for guys and comes with complimentary drinks on select nights. Ladies are prioritised on the guestlist, but there is room for accommodating mixed groups.

For Rex Rooms Club bookings, let us know.

Cuckoo Club and Luxx Club, which appeared on earlier versions of this list, no longer trade under those names: Cuckoo Club is now 99 Regent Street, which we book, and Luxx has closed, with Itzel now operating at its Berkeley Street address. We book Itzel too, so ask us when you enquire.

Now you know the three best clubs in London for students on a budget. These are clubs where you know you’ll have a good time, and if you’re lucky, you might end up seeing a celebrity or two. One thing to keep in mind is that early requests are crucial if you want to avoid the clubs being fully booked. For inquiries or London club booking requests, just let us know.
