I missed being the early worm because I didn"t commit early enough.



You don"t wanna be the early worm


I don"t get caught by the early bird though!  :D

I booked a twin room at the city centre Premier Inn on Goldsmith Street a couple of weeks ago. Three nights (Fri/Sat/Sun), for £125, I thought £21 per person per night was just about as good as it was gonna get.


I"ve done this.

Booked Holiday Inn castle marina park 3 nights £186 .. On sight parking and close to DTD was the selling point, probably got cheaper else where but this early bird decided to take this worm..

I always leave my car at DTD for the duration, never had any problems. Unless it"s absolutely chucking it down we walk along the canal to DTD (half an hour stroll from the city centre), and taxi back to the hotel. Hate paying for parking.

How"s this for odd:

Travelodge Riverside: Three nights, £181; four nights, £179. Hmm.

I was about to book the four nights but had a look at Hylands and it looked nice, included breakfast and was £40 a night. Also, it looks like it might be walkable (just).

Job done.

The De Vere is on the University campus and very modern, pool, gym.
Wifi is incredible.
3.1 miles from DTD.
Booked long time ago, double room for £39/nt.
Pretty sure DTD has a no shorts rule.
