You"re welcome guys...i"m probably not even staying there this time cuz i found a cheaper place for a double...but yeah it"s family run and the lady there is really nice and they have a nice bar area as well.  I might change my mind actually but late rooms has a deal for Rutland Square so may go there...But would definitely stay their for the price of their single rooms!!


How much for double at this other gaff then?.....dets pls?!!


Scroll up and you"ll find this...



Im meaning this one!!.....already got the original one booked!!


Ah, my bad.  Carey will probably reply before the day is over.

 Not sure about breakfast as I"m never up early enough for it but there is a pub next door that does decent food.

If it"s the Riverside Travelodge (I assume it is), then as Paulie says the pub next door is decent.

All you really need for sustenance is their home made cheesecake. Incred.

Hi All. My wonderful Mrs and I have just booked 29th and 30th in Holiday inn castle marina for the grand sum
of £39 a night Via a groupon voucher ;D
Hurry up, but if you want more than 1 night you need be a bit slick as although it says you can gift them
we found they won"t let you. So it"s basically 1 per person/per booking.
So I booked 29th and my better half booked 30th ;)
But if you get family and friends (to buy them for you)who haven"t signed up to groupon you get an
extra £6 voucher to spend on something else for recommending them.
Remember to recommend them from the hotel offer page.
And it"s one (room) booking per voucher. Although they shouldn"t move you if you let them know
what your doing when you book.
The hotel Tel No. is 01159935000 ask for reservations.

Ps Taxi is only £4 so the bookings lady told us ;D


You don"t need a taxi there it is walkable.

The return taxi generally costs about 6-7 quid I think


No, Rodders, it is walkable for you. And maybe Jon MW.

For everyone else - take a cab.

It is walkable.

Some of the guys did it at ECOAP a few times (Michelle, Ian and Don I think). I usually walk it anyway, relaxes you before that poker.

Still trying to think of something amusing to write in this bit.

My mates and I stay at the riverside travelodge every year when we come down from Scotland to play the WSOAP, the pub next door does a great fry up,  tbh we are probably more excited about the huge mixed grill that they serve than the actual poker , lol, it takes some eating MAN vs FOOD style
