Rivaan Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I just booked a room at the Park Inn! LOL! I'm already so excited about Eclipse 2! I'm really happy that I will be staying in the Park Inn now. Staying in a hotel several miles away was the only thing wrong with the entire weekend, for me this time (obviously my own fault). But.. that problem has been rectified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzy Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 UGH the guy at lunch... I said I wanted one slice of pizza and he gave me 3!! I was so mad cos he wasn't listening to me, I practically threw 1 back at him and didn't eat the 2nd. I was so embarassed, I looked like a pig the amount I was given!! Good news about the revamp Oh, and I left a jacket in the flippin wardrobe cos I started to pack, then didn't and forgot about it... flippin expensive to post back!!!!

But.. that problem has been rectified. Yup - a distant hotel was no good - booked in to Park in also for next time! As for food - I ate at the weatherspoons and Subway. Weatherspoons food was great and cheap too! Sunday roast was yummy! :) - Oh - and no rude chefs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallenwiccan Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 thats if weatherspoons actually give you your food, one of my friends had to get a refund they took so long, we weren't impressed, ordered food within seconds of each other but each persons order was at least 20 minutes apart and the last didnt come at all!

Lizzy Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 What did you complain about? And I wouldn't be too hapy- exec rooms are tiny! And 1 small sparkling water is the only diff lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastianillyria Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 This hotel is great ! Rooms, breakfast, bars, babby-foot And all we have to do (Q&A sessions, autograph, photo sessions, dealers room) is in a little area, so it's very simple to go from one activity to another When you announced the venue, i feared it would be difficult to go to northampton for people coming from overseas, but it is really very easy to go to Northampton So the Northampton Park Inn hotel is a so great hotel for a con Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie79 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Great news as there are loads of places to eat around the area, unlike some other cons I've been to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haunted Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I loved the little pub we found. They had veeeery nice food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH NO! Thats what we opted for. Mostly the fact they ate from the 6th floor though - quiter. Wouldnt like to be just above the party!! lol. Oh - and you get bath robes and mags apparently! Extra £5 per person per night not too bad for that I hope... a bit worried now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I wanted LOL, I'd pay for some nice decoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
