Ibis, St-Quentin

Advantages: If you need to be in the centre or Reading it's there
Disadvantages: You'll need patience and persistence to find it

.... But I was told there was an NCP round the corner which the very-French receptionist on the phone told me was 'very expensive'. Thanks love! Great! But that wasn't the worst of it. What she neglected to mention was the inconvenient fact that Friar's St where the Ibis is situated is currently closed and the 'diversion' takes you on a nice tour of Reading before dumping you back where you started, no wiser about how to get there. Only after flagging down some traffic wardens who assured me that I 'probably wouldn't get a ticket' for going down the 'taxis and buses only' route, I set off for a third attempt to get to the hotel. Then once I'd tracked that down, the next phase was finding the car park. Had there been ANY alternative, I wouldn't have left even the oldest of neglected bangers in the Garrard St NCP. I'm glad I arrived in daylight... Read review

...This past weekend I was lucky enough to have tickets to the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix, held at Albert Park in Melbourne. We had booked a 7.30am flight from Sydney and we landed in Melbourne at 8.45am bleary eyed but exited. The hotel is about 25 minutes way by coach from Melbourne's main airport, Tullamarine, and we pulled in at Southern Cross bus station which was a short 5 minute stroll to the hotel. It was too early to expect to get into our room at the Ibis but we were hoping they'd keep our luggage safe for is so we could get off to the track. When we arrived we explained what our plan was for the day and the receptionist was very helpful and accommodating, giving us a couple of options for luggage storage and checking us in so that we would have no hassle when we returned that evening. We went off and had a great day... Read review
