Noticing a lot of security deposits being charge especially in malaysia most of asia, I always pay cash and make sure I check out with at least and hour to spare, because they make you hang around thinking you are in a rush and got a plane to catch and will just leave it for them.I have heard some people waiting weeks after there stay and having to contact the hotel to get there card payment refunded if they pay it on card,I don't want to see Hotels see it as a money making scam knowing your not likely to return when your an overseas visitor, if you leave a negative review they just respond to save there reputation saying sorry you have not received your deposit please contact your bank the're must be an issue your end.

In a Travelodge this w/e in N'ton at the GP. Normal price for 3 night stay, £196.00. Price just for l/n £268.00 that's just for one Saturday night in a travelodge. That's what the British GP does. That’s the exact reason we stay at the heath inn in Leighton Buzzard for the GP weekend, it’s a bit of a drive into the track each day, but as you say the prices closer are horrendous.

if you visit Belfast, The Merchant hotel is a must. Stayed at the grand in brighton a few times recently, quite nice but a bit shaby in areas.(bathrooms) Comfort Inn ,Arundel, a few years ago was bloody awful.

I liked Edinburgh if you've not been buy a hop on hop off pass. Excellent value for money the one I bought also included a visit to the Castle and the Royal Britannia. Museums and the botanical garden are well worth it.

Brilliant result. I hear what your saying, thing is, as I'm wheelchair bound it reduces my options on where I can stay & as Sixfields was right opposite I could use public transport to & from the circuit although you had to pay for the privilege ie, not a normal bus service.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

I can understand that, it must be difficult. We did the park and ride from six fields one year. I’ve never been there for a game of football, but I suppose I could tick it off my list of grounds done as we were queueing right outside it

In bygone days when I was in my pomp I was fortunate to meet a young lady from Edenbridge.She was rather easy on the eye with a bosom like a pair of Hindenburgs. I do not believe that we shared time together in a hotel.

Whilst living in Dubai several guests have mentioned to me that where their travel plans have changed sometimes hotel deposits can take up to 2 weeks to be reimbursed on payment cards Originally posted by nickyf
