To those who are already at the hotel. Is it good?
More to the point, have you drunk them out of Smirnoff Ice yet? smile

Is the bar big enough, and will there be enough staff on duty? :-)

Wish we were there smile

The bar we're in at the moment is smallish, area around it isn't bad though. Currently there are 7 bar staff behind the bar biggrin

They've got pretty decent hand pull too which is a bonus

The starcase is great isn't it!

Don't forget that we have our own bar(s) tomorrow night, but yes the main hotel bar is Cody compared to a modern hotel. Cracking building though isn't it? Seen the library?

How strict is the 4pm checkin?

It'd be nice to drop anchor a bit before that, and get the suit hung up and stuff.

Are you joining them? wink

I do like the orangery room Matt, it's lovely.

As for check in, I imagine an earlier check-in will be fine. The hotel is full of PHers on Saturday night and I can't imagine them being full tonight meaning plenty of already set up rooms.
