What about WAW? Cheap Starwoods abound with excellent Plat recognition. Cheap booze abound, too.

Colleague (also based here in London) had his in Edinburgh, and had a cracking time. The Sheraton in Edinburgh gets great reviews.
The Turnberry outside of Glascow might be another idea.
Sure, perhaps you & your mates want to get out of the UK.....perhaps there's food for thought in the "no place like home" route.

One more for the easy/cheap-to-get-to list is Dublin, with the Westin providing an oasis of calm amongst the traditional stag activities ....

[I virtually lived at the Westin Dublin for over 2 years. While everything and everyone was fantastic, I'd have no desire to return for a while, and certainly not to Dublin for a stag do! I'm struggling to find the right word, but 'messy' comes to mind.]

If your looking for something a bit different, then Belgrade is the place, has every thing you could possibly want for a boys weekend away, and its fresh and untouched by stag parties as of yet.
Give it a go, you wont be sorry

Agree with the Belgrade suggestion but have you thought about Tirana. There's a really nice Sheraton there and the city is way, way cheaper than anywhere I've been in Europe.

Munich? Not the most wild and crazy city around, but not boring, either... Easy flight, easy to do on the cheap (or not), and several SPG hotels...

Sheraton Sopot is fairly cheap and close to many clubs/pubs.
Plenty of LCC options LON-GDN too.
