I found couple of good hotels around Kings Cross & Euston Sqr, which is close to Fabric, access to Victoria, Northern & Piccadily line.

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

I've got the task of looking for accomodation for 5 x people ... some of whom are fussy. They want the hotel at a budget price, in a central area and with a reasonable check out.

So it means finding a triple and double that come in at reasonable rates.

Not the easiest of tasks ... kicking myself for going out Thu and Fri for drinks, otherwise it'd have been booked !

A, dare I say it, "royal" line-up of clubs if ever there were one ;) On that note, it would be quality to see the Queen at Bedrock, in the booth with Diggers, doing her cordial wave to the crowd, and watching him at work: "One is most enjoying this music, Sir Digweed", she'd doubtless say.

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

Another question - how easy is it to get to/away from. Not too bothered about getting there, but at the end of the night I'll want to get home pretty quick - will need to get to Kings Cross Thameslink to get a train north - will that be manageable?

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

^The tubes are running that weekend so it shouldnt be a problem.

#1279781Post 196 of 401

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

Basically bring plenty of cash + change for the tube Greg !

#1279818Post 197 of 401

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)
