Hotel thread London

[ingridswing]

My experience, the sooner you book the better prices are. That's also what Binone says.
There are plenty of hotels in London, and sure you will find something later on.

What I did so far is booking 1 nonrefundable at half the normal price. So I paid that one already.
Some hotels on booking.com which can be cancelled up to 1 or 2 days before. Have to pay when I am there.
And I also booked the Copthorne Tara for Knopflerized and me. This can be cancelled but will cost one night penalty. They already took one night from the creditcard, the rest of the money I have to pay when I am there.

With concerts I like to be in the neighbourhood of the venue to be able to have some afterconcertdrinks and walk to the hotel.

So it seems everyone will go their own way. I will let the hotels know that we don't want to use their offer.

By the way Fieneke: if booking.com doesn't have rooms anymore it's not always the case that the hotel doesn't have rooms anymore. But i's a busy week and especially to the end of that week it will be busy in London.

Yes Fieneke, I'm booked into the Copthorne Tara too and I booked through their own web site.  It was also a little cheaper than booking.com so check it out if you want to.

le guitare = Die Gitarre

  I think that's all you need?


I have completed my Hotel booking now, too. I chose the same Hotel as Superval, the Premier Inn, Earl's Court, arriving on Sunday, departing on Tuesday. So I will use the Sunday for sighseeing maybe and checking out the  nearer distance and after a hopefully damn good sleep I will be ready to meet everyone on Monday somewhere near the RAH!

Two nights with breakfast 183 GBP, (would be 230 Euro today). I guess it will not get very much cheaper having in mind that it is pretty close to the RAH - 1 mile as Val said... (if you gonna walk a mile in them... )
I can cancel the order until the day of arrival. And have to pay at the check-out. Seems all very safe and sensible to me. Plus the breakfast menu looks good!

Hi everyone,
All of you are very experienced with these London hotels, and I've never been east of the Mississippi River in the USA.   Need a little hand holding, please.    Ingrid, you have done a tremendous amount of work.     I'd like to stay at whichever hotel you and the majority of the group may be staying.      Love to be close to Phil, Matt, Nelly, Slavi.   and of course more of you.    Who could name everyone?   What is  your best recommendation, Ingrid.     I do NOT want to get cold feet on this.   

[ingridswing]

Dear IrisRose, after knowing you for more then 6 years, it will be wonderful to meet you too! 

I booked today a room for Jans and me in the Copthorne Tara Hotel! Now I am sure I will be in the same hotel as many other fans which is great!

Btw Knopflerized won't you be in Amsterdam?
