Enroll at Hogwarts with London hotel's "Harry Potter"-themed rooms

If you check your mailbox every Sept. 1 and wish you could book a one-way ticket on the Hogwarts Express, have we got a vacation suggestion for you.

A London hotel is now offering stays in two "Harry Potter"-themed rooms that look straight out of Gryffindor Tower at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry.

The "Wizard's Chambers" rooms are outfitted with four-poster beds, potions, cauldrons and other "unexpected wizard details," according to the Georgian House Hotel's website, which adds the accommodations have a "gothic feel, very true to the spirit of Hogwarts."

A stay in the HP rooms will run you about $400/night. The hotel also offers packages with tickets for a "Muggle Walking Tour" of filming locations around London from the "Harry Potter" films or the nearby "Making of Harry Potter" attraction at the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in Leavesden, England.

Muggles were apparently so bewitched by the rooms that, CNN Money reports, the hotel's website crashed Monday from all the interest.

Though the last book was published in 2007 and the final film debuted in 2011, there seems to still be plenty of buzz in all things Potter -- these hotel rooms aside, there's a new documentary about real-life Quidditch players, cryptic riddles from J.K. Rowling, short stories published on Pottermore, a "Sesame Street" parody and the promise of a film trilogy inspired by the HP textbook "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them."
