The sofitel is extremely handy but I almost fell off my chair when i saw the price ( £292!!!)

( The hilton is above £200).

As much as I like points ( Radisson Edwardian was £120 inc VAT) for about 6 hours sleep ( arrive at 10pm and up @ 415am) I will look for a cheaper hotel like Premier inn or travelodge

if uv got IHG status and could hope for an upgrade for a few hours sleep the HI Ariel isnt actually that bad if they upgrade you to be honest, and normally can be had for under 90 quid
