After buying tickets for the 2009 British GP I thought I would TRY to book a hotel. The majority in Central Cardiff are already full but the Holiday Inn has only recently opened booking for the GP weekend so if anyone is looking (and can afford a small mortagage to stay over) there are rooms available at the Holiday Inn.

I dont bother stopping over anymore,had enough of the Cardiff rip-off merchants.

you must have contacts as there are no rooms available at all according to central booking - what a rip off anyway I hope now they do move to Wembley and it will teach them right for being so damn greedy

There are still rooms available but they are only accepting 2 night reservations (another rip-off!!!)

there is also events pricing but you can changebooking and cancel the unwanted night if you want it is all to do with yield management

Can't remember where but somewhere it's

If your prepared to budget for taxi's or have a nomited driver you can find some excellent digs out in the sticks.Last year we stayed in a place called Sully the digs were right on the beach of the estuary. This year we had a cottage to ourselves in Pontyprdd which we have already booked for next year

Can't understand why people clamber to stay in Cardiff anymore, such a rip off since they got used to the Speedway world invading thier place for the weekend.
We always look for somewhere outside, still get two nights at a decent rate.
