Yet another post about the F.A cup semi.
National holidays are offering a day in London on Saturday, a night in a hotel and then travel to wembley on Sunday. Thought it was a good cheap deal for a London hotel and a days shopping to keep the Mrs happy. Obviously doesn't include matchday ticket.

Heres the site:

Was going to post in FA cup ticket thread, but thought this was slightly different, feel free to move.

Where is the hotel National are using? Often, they do it cheap cos you stay in an Alan Partridge style travel tavern off a motorway, rather than in the place you wanna be.

I'm always suspicious if they don't name it when you book.

I might do this though myself.

My old man spoke to them on the phone and I think he got a name from them.

In all honestly I'm not going for comfort, literally somewhere to have a couple of hours kip on Saturday night, and a shower will do me.

Don't suppose you could pass that hotel/b&b name ?
 
For traveling down on the day I see East Yorkshire buses are charging £49 return setting off from Hull at 7am.

Does anyone have any idea how much Tigertravel will charge as it would seem like an easy option to pay for your travel at the same time as your ticket as I think we have done before to matches.

Unfortunately I cannot get to the game as I am secretary of the athletic club in Hull and I have organised an event for the Sunday tjat can't be changed. I will be represented though because my son who lives in Edinburgh wants a ticket. He used to go to all home and away games but since living up there just can't afford it. We are helping him with costs so he can get to Wembley. Messed things up being a Sunday though because he can't get the Monday off so is having to fly back to Edinburgh, mind you the prices is very good and probably cheaper than the train.

I'm thinking about location mainly, so there's somewhere to go for a few drinks on the Saturday night.

That'll be the open meeting at the Costello that my son had earmarked for a season opener. It would have been his first appearance at Costello with us being from over Leeds way. I expect the fields might be a bit thinner than normal for your event. Good luck it we'd have been there had the semi being on the Saturday.
 
Got myself booked in a Premier Inn in Watford 60 quid for my room and breakfast which i didn't think was bad. Drive down around 12ish on Sunday and get there nice and early to take it all in.

Yes I was really hoping our game would be the Saturday. We will be having another event in September so hope to see you then. Incidentally we were supposed to be hosting a European Athletic event on the day of the final. Thankfully that has been moved to August.

I went to the Costello meeting just before the Olympics 2012 with quite a few Polish athletes there. Was very enjoyable.
