Mary and I have booked for Fri & Sat.Will pay for NRAS Lunch seperately.
By phone they knew nothing about NRAS deal. Best to book on-line.

The number for Hilton doesn't go through to reservations at Leicester... its a central booking line for Hilton (so often you will speak to someone with an american accent.... although not be charged for the privilege)

Do we know how many people we have coming? I'll see if I can get a direct number (Company I used to work for is main customer of Hilton)

Nick & I looked on the web-site, & it said there was no availability for the price Chrissie got - £54 50. We tried phoning, and we were able to book for £54 50 - a double room with breakfast, so it appears to depend on who you speak to, or how up to date the web-site is.

Hi All

Just to let you know that I will ask for confirmation who is going for lunch a bit nearer the time. It is too early to commit just now and I need full names and numbers (i.e. & family is no good - could be 1 or 10!)

The hotel need to know definite lunch numbers 1 week before the date.

Those wishing to stay at the hotel should book themselves in using either the special offer (adverts in the papers) which ends on 31st January, or direct to Leicester Hilton (by phone) quoting 'NRAS'. If you are unable to attend, then you can cancel this one. If you use the special offer, you can't cancel and lose your moneySad

Do email me on monty21@ntlworld.com if you have any questions.

Warmest wishes, Ann

Thank you, Ann.

I am still trying to organise my Tesco clubcard vouchers as I have never used them for hotels before but will need to be able to use them if we want to come...We'll need two double rooms for sure too.

Love,
Amanda
