Bobbin' Along Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I could find nothing at all in Cardiff centre - and only very few outside the centre, mostly 20-40 miles away - and that was the week that the date was confirmed. The prices have also been hiked up - a room that would normally cost £60 is now costing £100 upwards. You'll be very lucky indeed to find anything - good luck.

Gemini Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I already did, oh how sad. And last train bk to brum from cardiff is 8.30 Have you got to stay over? Coventry run coaches to Cardiff, getting there around 12pm and I'm sure Birmingham will as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willstaxi Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) For all those looking for hotels for the British GP why not try places like Pontypridd, Merthyr or Abergavenny there are penty of very good small Hotels & B&B's in these areas that should be glad of the the trade and the trian services run till late. If you are driving why not try places like Brecon where I live, only 1hr from Cardiff and make a weekend of it in the Welsh countryside for the price of one nights stay in the overpriced Hotels in the City. I hope this is of help Edited March 3, 2009 by willstaxi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peatbog Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 I already did, oh how sad. And last train bk to brum from cardiff is 8.30 I believe the start time has been changed to 5pm or thereabouts so you might catch the train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
