UserFormerlyKnownAsMondasant63 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Great, can I arrange for it to pick me up in Derby at about 4.00am so I get there in good time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIDS Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Yes. At least that was posted before. Blimey !! Nice one,thanks Queen Sindel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Blimey !! Nice one,thanks Queen Sindel. You're welcome. Jury's Inn, Travel Inn, Holiday Inn and at least one more hotel that escapes me right now are so close to the Centre that it makes sense to have a pick up point there, too.

myknees Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I'm at Travelodge so this is great. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domino Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I might use this service, sounds like a good idea :) I'll probably have to get a bus to MK but it only goes to the centre so this would be useful. Thanks SM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithporter23 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Great news - we just booked travelodge central last night - hope theres a few others staying there too? (off topic sorry) Anyone stayed there before? whats it like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-KiKi- Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 The stadium is far of the JurysInn ? It's the same stadium during the show with Billy Boyd ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Great news - we just booked travelodge central last night - hope theres a few others staying there too? (off topic sorry) Anyone stayed there before? whats it like? It's basic, but clean and does the job. The stadium is far of the JurysInn ? It's the same stadium during the show with Billy Boyd ? Sorry, I overlooked this yesterday thanks to a certain guest announcement. No, it's not the same stadium, the Dons have moved. The free busses stop at the Centre though (the old venue). I'd say walk from Jurys Inn to the Centre and catch a bus there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-KiKi- Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 thanks for your back. I wait any news for these buses now (schelude) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Quartly Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Great news, I can catch a bus from Bicester to the centre and then the showmasters bus from there, looks like I'll be attending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chair89 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) im a bit confused what is near the stadium or the train station. is train station near the city centre. and what is near to the stadium, I read Asda. i might t travel by coach, so is the coach station, near the train station, i've read that MK has relocated the coach station, i traveled by coach when i went to bedford con when i landed, i didn't see a train station. i'm assuming the best thing to do with a hotel, is to go to one near train station, or should find a hotel near stadium.

Queen_Sindel Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 The train station is in Milton Keynes Central, but I really don't know if this counts as city centre. There's an Ikea and an Asda near the Don's Stadium, also some other food options near the centre of Bletchley (that's closest to the stadium). The coach station is not near the train station, neither the usual one nor the temporary one. You could walk from the temporary one to the Centre though (the shopping mall, the old venue). The free busses stop there as well. If the Travelodge Milton keynes Central does still have free rooms, book there, this is closest to the train station. Otherwise look for a hotel near the Centre. It does not seem that the hotel at the stadium has opened yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliv0 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Milton Keynes train station is an easy walk to the shopping centre. You literally come out of the train station and walk in a straight line until you hit the shopping centre. It's about a 10-15 minute car ride from the city centre (shopping centre) to the stadium.
