Okay. I'm staying overnight in the Folkestone area the night before travelling to meet the entire group in Harzé so let's have a thread about that!
Tripadvisor reviews suggest the best hotels in the area are the Pemier Inn & the HI Express which lets you know what a relative dump this corner of Kent is!
I've used the HIExpress before. It's fine but it is on an industrial park next to a big Tesco. No alternative places to eat or drink within a sensible walking distance so I'll be looking elsewhere.
So, as rooms seem to be going quite quickly for that Saturday according to booking.com I've decided to plump for the Best Western Stade in Hythe which can be booked with "free cancellation" and no upfront payment by following the link given.
I've used this hotel before a trip with Wapping. A bit tired around the gills but okay for the price. Car park at the rear - not secured but out of sight and the paranoid can chain their bike to the fire escape or other ironwork.
Decent pub (The Hope Inn) a 5 minute walk away or the Stade has a choice of British or Indian menus.
Anyone else joining me or have a better suggestion that won't cost more than £50 for B&B? As said above, I can cancel this room by clicking a link, for free if there is a better offer going...
