Title: Brighton hotels Post by: MrMoves on January 28, 2006, 02:50:39 PM any suggestions? close to the Grosvenor casino for the February festival.
Thanks.

But there are plenty of guest houses etc close by .
Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: thetank on January 28, 2006, 03:44:02 PM When I was in Brighton I stayed at the Abbey Hotel because it was the cheapest on expedia.
I wouldn't recommend it as the toilet facilities are shared (ewww) and not very fresh smelling either. They boast that they "have the only 24 hour self service restaurant in the UK" It's actually just a vending machine. Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: Indestructable on January 28, 2006, 04:29:36 PM Yes the Seattle is at the Marina. There are obviously loads of hotels in town like the Old Ship Hotel or the Holiday Inn, and they are a 5 minute cab away from the Marina.
If you have a lovely lady lined up or guaranteed to pull on the night go for the hotel Pelirocco, the Nookii room has been highly recommended. :)up As for the Abbey Hotel, i am not surprised it was the cheapest on Expedia!

Oops you are right, I have just looked at my leaflet on this & it is the Grosvenor and had assumed the Rendevous had sent me details. Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: MrMoves on January 28, 2006, 05:36:58 PM It's the Grosvenor, near the pier, not the Rendezvous which is at the Marina. I'm thinking Queens Hotel, is that near the Grosvenor? I've played at Rendezvous before, I stayed at either Queens OR Kings hotel (the memory isn't what it was) and that was only 5 minutes in a taxi from Rendezvous. Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: the rock on January 28, 2006, 10:44:24 PM Just quoted me £160 +vat at the Queens Hotel, without a seaview.
Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: RFC on January 28, 2006, 10:51:17 PM Dont think i could do that to myself
staying in a hotel in Brighton called Queens OK I'LL DO IT MYSELF ;yellowcard; Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: Indestructable on January 28, 2006, 10:57:24 PM I think the Kings hotel will only be about £50. Surprised at the cost of the Queens but problem might be is that Valentines day is mid week and may have bumped up prices at the weekend for romantic couples. I would have thought if you were paying £160 you might as well go for the Thistle or the Grand for the same price.
As for RFC straight :redcard: Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: MrMoves on January 28, 2006, 10:59:51 PM Thistle is £125, or so I was quoted.
It was Kings hotel I stayed at last time. Reasonable sort of place. Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: Indestructable on January 28, 2006, 11:04:13 PM Yes it's ok and good location for the Grosvenor.
Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: zelda on January 28, 2006, 11:13:25 PM I plan on going also, if I can win enough to pay for it :D But £125 a night? Is there anywhere to pitch my tent? ;)
Title: Re: Brighton hotels Post by: Div on January 29, 2006, 12:33:50 AM Try this site. Lots of places for less than £125!!!
