Title: Where to stay in Nottingham? Post by: Red Razor on March 13, 2006, 03:58:15 PM I am fairly new to the site and need a little help. I will be in the Nottingham area in a couple of months and don't know anything about the area. Can someone advise a good place to play some no limit hold em and a decent hotel near? I am guessing I will have to apply for a membership before visiting? Many thanks.

Hope this helps Title: Re: Where to stay in Nottingham? Post by: AdamM on March 13, 2006, 04:04:57 PM The card room in Nottingham is at the Gala Casino on Maid marion way. there are tourneys everynight except saturdays ranging from £10 limited rebuy beginners nights to monthly £100 unlimited rebuys. I popping in when you get to nottingham and collecting a monthly schedule from the card room. if you tell me when you are due to arrive I'll tell you the first tournament and you can take it from there (ie if you arive in Notts Sunday morning, play the £30 freeze in the afternoon and pick up[ a schedule.
Hotels, don't know really. there's plenty in walking distance. perhaps google hotels - nottingham - maidmarion way Title: Re: Where to stay in Nottingham?

Any idea about the buy-ins and limits (or no limit)? Title: Re: Where to stay in Nottingham? Post by: jbsc7769 on March 13, 2006, 06:38:07 PM The Park Plaza opposite is ok, The Lace Market Hotel is good (as is the restaurant) also Harts.
