    Docklands, kew and elstree all in the offer - can anyone tell me if any of them are near to the touristy parts of central London. Thanks.
    Docklands is near the centre- ish- I suggest you put the places you want to go into www.tfl.gov.uk in the journey planner.You are also only 10 minutes from Greenwich, I think, and there is loads to do there.
    I guess in Kew you would be nearer to some nice places though- Hampton Court? But it seems to not be as well connected.

    The "Kew" one is a 15 minute walk to kew gardens and 5/10 min to kew bridge station (every 15 min (or hourly on Sunday); trains into waterloo). You can get a few buses from there to hampton court, but it'll take a while. I wouldn't say its close :)

  • Does anyone know if Premier Inn take the money off your card straight away on these deals, or do you just give the card as a guarantee and you pay when your at the hotel ?

    The premier inn seem to do good deals on flying and parking whilst going on holiday. For £95 I have booked a night at the premier inn near birmingham airport, plus breakfast, 15 days parking and a 1 way transfer to the airport, this is for a family of 5. You need to ring the hotel to book this.

    Seemed a good deal to me.

    When I booked it said that you pay at the hotel. They didn't ask for the security code on the card when booking - so I am not sure how they can take money from your card anyway if you don't turn up. I guess they can though.

    For everyone who books rooms for £29 is good to know that they are non changeable and you cannot cancel or you will be charged for the TOTAL amount of your stay.Payment is on arrival,oh and also if you don't turn up your card will be charged as well for the total amount, so be warned!
