Sorry i cant help with a better price but i can recommend this hotel as me and my family had a fabulous time there in July this year..we travelled with Eclipse.

We also had a fab time at the conrad in June this year,can highly recommend this hotel excellent

I got First Choice web price and then phoned them direct and they matched the price which was great as I am not confident to book DIY on the web.I am off in 4 days so will do a review when I get back

for your replies. It looks like if I want to book this one it will have to be good old FC again!
jay TRIP I'll look out for your review. Meantime have a brilliant holiday

Thanks for that info Briar, I am thinking of mid April for a week going on the 14th, 15th, 16th or 17th. Was your good flight price from Thomson for the immediate future?

Hiya
I've just checked thomson, for my dates 4 flights are 1456 pounds. I can get a package with Portland (not to Conrad though as Portland have limited hotel choice) for not much more, so I won't be emailing the Conrad for a room price as no point.
Sorry that you won't get your pre Xmas break, I'm sure you'll get something in the new year. I know from Turkey forum that you were trying to get away prior to Xmas.
My Dad (84years young!) doesn't want us to go to Egypt for same reason, but I said to him I use Central and Jubilee lines 3 days a week and was sitting at my desk when the bombs went off in the summer. Imagine what it was like when we were told to prepare places in the Borough for up to 1000 walking wounded obviously an over estimate as we found out later, but we were speechless at the time. I am needless to say vigilent on behalf of my family, but will not let these fanatics win by stopping me from travelling.
