OK I had a walkabout today, full marks to Seqenci the Pitcher and Piano looks great and I did a little research into hotels within falling distance .

 

Castlebest’s Hotel Guide

 

 

Travelodge - £32.00 - sleeps - 3 - type of room - Family - Advanced Purchase

Jurys Inn - £39.00 - sleeps 3 - type of room - Summer web saver - Advanced Purchase

Etap Hotel - £40.00 - sleeps 3 - type of room - Standard - Standard Booking

City Inn - £55.00 - sleeps 2 type of room - Standard - Advanced Purchase

Novotel - £69.00 - sleeps 2 - type of room - Standard - Standard Booking

Hyat Hotel - From £71.20 - sleeps 2 - type of room - Standard - Standard Booking

 

 

If you don’t know Birmingham I would suggest the Travelodge, Jurys Inn or the City Inn because these are all within yards of the Pitcher and Piano where we will be meeting, the other’s are all a short walk from Brindly place (10 to 15 minutes - ish)

 

 

As always I can take no responsibility for any information given so check the hotel before booking, here are a few pointers;

• Advanced purchase online is generally not refundable if you have to cancel later i.e. you will pay the full room cost and once you have paid you can’t get your money back and the amount of time you have to purchase in advance is different form hotel to hotel.
  
• Check if the rate includes breakfast (if you want breakfast) and book it with the room as this tends to be cheaper than booking it when you get there.
  
• Check how many people the room will sleep as some hotels do 2 and 3 bed rooms for the same price.
  

There are loads of other hotels too I have just researched the ones I could see

Do you know if any of those have smoking rooms? Comfort Inns did at the last meet.

typo

[Castlebest]

As far as I'm aware all hotels have now banned smoking in their rooms because they are classed as public spaces :-|

A bit far to stagger back to on 21st though sequenci .....

[overdone]

I am trying to get "The Godmother" to go.

[babybear39]

I'm trying to go but I just moved, had carpet and had shingles for 3 weeks

[clemma]

Still a bit up in the air for me. I have just had a job interview in Hastings (well, it was the second one today, for the same job). It looks like it's in the bag - if so, my move to Hastings will be much sooner........and I will have to work this weekend. Even so, early days yet......will confirm nearer the time.
