Indeed...I"ve been busy today and haven"t had a change to post a link...but it"s here..LINKY

Seen (Advanced Purchase/Save) - 3 nights for £139 @ City Centre or cheaper at other outlets if you have transport.

Frankly, the Future Inn deal (see above) looks better/closer to me but have at it.

Future Inn is the one I"ve seen mostly discussed.

I"m in there. Don"t know if the deal above (3 nights for £142) is still available.

The Travelodge opposite the G would probably be popular too...but I don"t think it will be as cheap as normal.

EDIT: The Future Inn is deal is still there if you book direct.

Travelodge was c.£67 a night....

Frankly, I"d pick the Future if staying for 2 nights or more as you can always sack off the third night and it"s cost you only £10 more for better quality.

Thanks Paulie - I"ve booked the Travelodge, begrudgingly as it"s a bit more expensive now and I"m not a big fan of theirs but it"s a great location and the still best deal as only staying one night!
