Dellefyne Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 So, anyone going to the Ibis in Lillie Road? The other Ibis I found nearer EC2 seems to exist only on the Google map, and nowhere else..... Really confusing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MS4EVER Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hi anybody staying at York House? I'm new to all this staff and I'm coming from abroad. Can anybody tell me if Earl's Court 2 is more near Cromwell road or Old Brompton Road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Okay, is anybody else at the Ibis Earls Court and got a phone call asking to confirm if you're still coming? They called me earlier this evening checking if my booking was valid because I made it last year already. I was slightly surprised to say the least.

Dellefyne Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I bet you was! So you're not supposed to be booking in the same hotel two years in a row? Are they kidding?? No I didn't get any phone call. I hope my booking is valid though, since the money has not been taken out of my account, and yet it was a special price that stated the money was supposed to be taken right away after the booking.... Back in April. Wait and see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naurarwen_fangorn Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'm at the Earl's Court on Lillie Road too not had any phone calls no QS. Though could do with ringing them tomorrow as I'm sure I booked a double room with a sofa bed and I only have a double bed frmo what they were saying.

Queen_Sindel Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I've been staying at this hotel since LFCC moved to Earls Court and have always made my reservations a couple of weeks after the date for next year was announced. I know I'm going anyway, so no harm in getting things done early. I asked twice why they were checking - I'm on another tariff than you are and payment will be taken when I get there - and was told "because you made the booking last year." Not that this ever has been a problem before. LFCC is not the only convention in Earls Court, so you should think they are used to it. My boyfriend thinks that probably they overbooked and are trying to get rid of bookings or something. Let's hope that this hasn't happened. A friend of mine was a late arrival two years ago, and although she had prepaid they had given her room away and moved her to another hotel for one night. I'm at the Earl's Court on Lillie Road too not had any phone calls no QS. Though could do with ringing them tomorrow as I'm sure I booked a double room with a sofa bed and I only have a double bed frmo what they were saying. Do they even have double rooms with sofa beds? I wasn't aware of that. The room type as something that the woman who called asked about three times. "You have a twin room, yes?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naurarwen_fangorn Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'm sure it had a choice for it yeah but I need to check as my mum is crewing but only has the hotel booked with Showmasters for the Saturday night and we're travelling down Fri so she's hoping to stay with us that night.

Dellefyne Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 They are real jerks... They don't even have the right to do that. Well, let's keep our fingers crossed! We'll find out on Friday (or at least in my case) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 We'll find out on Friday (or at least in my case) Yeah, for me too. I'm hoping to be at the hotel at 3 PM at the latest. My room mate is arriving at Heathrow a little after me, so I'll hang around there and wait for her. It would be stupid if we both sat through the tube ride into the city alone, her flight only comes in 45 minutes later than mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellefyne Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I hope everything will be okay! I will be able to get there as soon as check-in opens (12.00) as my Eurostar arrives in London before 8 am.... Yeah, I know, I took guarantees to be there very early! XD But this way I'll get to visit places in London during the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theblackrose Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 My hubby just told me that the Ibis rang us yesterday to make sure we still wanted the room too ! Definitely sounds as though they have overbooked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely sounds as though they have overbooked I'm just glad now that I have booked a flight earlier than usual. Looks like I will be going by tube alone after all. I am not keen on a repeat experience from two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enty Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 My hubby just told me that the Ibis rang us yesterday to make sure we still wanted the room too ! Definitely sounds as though they have overbooked Had this happen to us before on several occassions. Didnt get into the ibis this time so we are in the Trebovir. Seems nice enough if not a little small. The Ibis dont have sofa beds its a small be along the side of the window and the staff have to unlock it as they dont like it used unless its for a child. If you expect to check in at 12 noon be prepared for your room not to be ready. We have gone to check in at 12 and the room hasnt been ready until 2pm. Was travelling with my daughter who wasnt feeling great and wanted to get into the room for a lie down but instead we had to wander round town for several hours.

A friend of mine was a late arrival two years ago, and although she had prepaid they had given her room away and moved her to another hotel for one night. That may very well be the case. The hotel is definitely booked to capacity as we tried to get a room there a few weeks ago but couldn't because the hotel was full. Hope they have a room for you when you get there!
