Hi everyone,

When I registered for the convention, I had a lot of doubts. But thanks to all the participants of this forum, all my questions have already been answered. I will now be taking a bus from Heathrow to Oxford and expect to reach Oxford sometime in the afternoon on 26.11.04. Booking a hotel room is the only task remaining now. I would like to have a single room with attached bathroom. Does anyone have recommendations for a hotel close to the venue?

Thanks in a... See more

email address for Acorn House and Newton House Nov 10, 2004

Their email address is [email protected].

When I just called, they still had rooms available for Fri & Sat.

For Newton House, it is [email protected], and they also still have room(s) that week-end.

Hello Anne/Edward Nov 19, 2004

I wrote to both these on the day you posted this reply but am yet to get a reply. But in the meanwhile someone had posted a link to a site where I could book a room for £80 for two days. So now I shall be staying at Nanford Guesthouse. Thanks a lot for your help.

See you in Oxford,

Cheers!

Shekhar
