The comments in this thread seem to have gone away from your basic question about costs. I just did a couple of searches and found a number of air and hotel deals for 5 days in London for less that $2000. Obviously the actual cost depends on the number of days, any add ons for the specific airport you want to fly out of and the actual hotel you want. Going with a cheaper hotel can bring the price down several hundred dollars.
Any of the big internet travel companies like Expedia or Orbitz can help, or you can try looking at sites like British Airways.
As mentioned by a previous poster, you can get a subway ("Tube") pass that will let you get just about anywhere in London, so transportation should not be a problem. I can recommend the area north of Hyde Park and south of Paddington Station. You can access the tube either at Paddington, Queenway or Lancaster Gate. There a decent number of hotels in that area. However, just about anywhere in London is accessible by tube.
