robolots Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Has anyone got any decent Bydgoszcz hotels they could recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Pod Orlem undoubtedly the classiest. City is modern and a very good standard . After that you are looking at the Brda as the best of the rest. Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob B Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 If you are talking about for the GP, doubt you will get one, we struggled and that was back in March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob B Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I can't remember but we tried Pod Orlem, Brda etc and they were full. If you get in great, maybe they've had some rooms become available since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robolots Posted July 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Is Bydgoszcz the size of a very small village then?? I made a fairly late booking to Wroclaw and found a hotel no problem. I made a reservation yesterday with supposedly "live" vacancies and today it has come back with none available. It did however come back with an alternative in Krakow!!!!!! As it is i'm flying to Poznan and hiring a car so don't mind driving a wee bit, so if anyone else has any suggestions please post them or i will be packing my tent me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob B Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Yep from what I gather there is only about 5-6 hotels and none of them are that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't get any joy getting a room in Bydgoszcz itself then I'd suggest booking a back-up in Torun (about 30 km away) and seeing if you can get something last minute in Bydgoszcz itself. Normally the organisers release the rooms they don't want around a week before the GP and all of a sudden the likes of the Pod Orlem and City have spare capacity. Also, depending on your required standard of accomodation, there are a few other hotels in Bydgoszcz. The official city site is a good source of other hotels - link here.

If interest, e-mail me privately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You're welcome I think you are right. When I first opened your link it came up in Polish so to help our English speaking friends I found an alternative "English" button. When I tried your link just now it opened in English :-) Funny how things are, aren't they. Ps. see you at Reading (perhaps ?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yes - look forward to hopefully meeting you. I'll leave it to the boy (Mateusz) to sort out details. Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandie Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yes - look forward to hopefully meeting you. I'll leave it to the boy (Mateusz) to sort out details. Rico <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You do not know quite how BAD that sounds Rico! Didnt know you had a BOY - well, a grown up one at any rate!!!! Actually maybe you did realise what you were saying!

Rico Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 (edited) F4E, I see what you mean, however I would have used the phrase 'my boy', rather than 'the boy'. Cameron Tomasz does have a large influence on my social diary as it is, but he can't organise much for himself. I'm sure I'll have offended Mateusz enough by calling him the boy, but I've had a couple of people asking me if he's my son since he arrived on these shores.

Rico <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well there's always adoption and if you dont want him we are more than happy to take him off your hands - he's a 'nice boy!!'

Rico Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 he's a 'nice boy!!' <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's not a competition to see who can offend him the most. I'd imagine you are in the lead now though I'm sure when he comes round tonight and reads this he will have a good chuckle. Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
