Advantages: Luxury hotel with a very friendly and helpful staff Disadvantages: No problems with the hotel, but I suspect that the locals damaged my car tyre - what did it actually achieve?
...ways, staying in the Birmingham Marriott on the way up, and the Newcastle Marriott (review to follow) on the way back down a week later. Both hotels were booked via “Priceline” and I thought that the (room-only) rate of UKP 45.00 (plus fees and taxes amounting to about UKP12 in total) per room per night that I managed to secure was superb. Before we left, I checked availability on the Marriott website and our room was available for UKP 195.00. So ... ...and the directions from the Marriott website were very clear indeed.
