Im assuming theres transport from Twickers back into central london, there always is after show like this. I'll probably book mine closer to the time as I don't know how long I will be in london for.

Have to admit, I've never actually stayed in one. It's just the impression it gives off I guess, and doesn't seem very private (I hate B&B's for that exact same reason)

I'm happy with a travel inn, nice and anonymous and no-one bothers you...lol

Well, being a Londoner I don't need a hostel, but I reckon we should plan some proper pre-show meetups this time ... I don't wanna have to rely on Kev / Vallie / whoever it was recognising my bandana again! And it was awesome meeting up with you all at MK

Who are you and what have you done with Sinéad?! hehe I know you'll be meeting me and Russ at the least - but I thought you'd be too shy to want to meet anyone else hehe

Hopefully there will be buses / trains or a tube (?) back into the center

Am not really a hostel person either so hotel or B&B.
Try the Dorchester

When we went to the Hyde Park gig we stayed there. It was part of a binge we had in London. Amazing, but amazingly pricey too

A walk along lots of parts of london will find you a b&b easily.

I dont mind hostels but honestly travelodges are around the same price and at least you get your own bathroom. You can get triple rooms at Kings cross for £90 - £30 each a night isnt too bad at all for London. Also if youkeep checking the site you can get discounted rooms for as cheap as £29. Even a bed in a hostel will be £20 id rather pay that extra couple of quid myself.

However I am staying in hostels in Dublin but the hotel prices really are stupid there!!

:P Meeting new Jovi people will be cool



Yeah somewhere like the Travel Lodge / Ibis or Premier Inn is the kinda place I'm looking for. If I win the lotto between now and then though, Ill take the Dorchester
