Hotel For CAC. Booked.

[Simmo!]

Hey guys

I booked up for the Park Plaza Victoria for CAC, arrive Sun 29th March, leave Wed 1st April. It's a good hotel - stayed there before. Have also stayed at the Kras and the Jolly Carlton but the Victoria is the best IMO.

There's also a very good deal on if you're quick - 90 euros a night, although don't forget there is a 5% room tax on all hotels in Dam.

It's in a very good location too. The train from Schipol airport is dead easy, 20 mins at a cost of about €4, and the station is right over the square from the hotel. The walk from the hotel to the Kras is 5 minutes up one street so it's ideal. Internet is €17 a night compared to €20 at the Kras by the way.

Cheers

Simmo!

PS. Gonna book the usual curry at Balti House for Sunday night :)

Can't argue that. The bar won't run out of booze on the first night ;)

Meister is getting the train up from Germany. Could be a sensible move (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7909683.stm) :(

What time you landing in Amsterdam Simmo?

Still deciding whether to get the early flight out of Gatwick, geting me rhere around 9.30am, or the lat afternoon flight getting in around 7. Tempted to go early then no rush in the evening. You?

Hmmm thinking maybe getting into Amsterdam late afternoon time, this way it cuts down the temptation to start drinking early in the day into the evening :p
