It is safe to assume the majority of the attendees from outside Europe will arrive in London and most of those from Europe will arrive in London or the southeast. As a result logistics mean that Scotland and northern england would be problematical. In terms of facilities people are generally looking at universities so in practice we are probably looking for universities within striking distance of London.
Oxford! Oxford! Oxford! With this, I hand again over to you who actually have to organise it :)
The cheap accomodation is usually flooded well in advance by foreign students (summer schools, etc - the name sells very well) and the university is quite good at squeezing money out of visitors.
Mind you, we managed MIT, so...
