The last time we stayed in a Premier Inn, we each paid £22 for a deal incorporating an evening meal, alcoholic drink and a buffet breakfast. It was excellent.

On the other hand, we found food was not always available in a Travelodge, and when it was, it was nowhere near as good as the Premier Inn.

Can someone please provide an answer to this outstanding question?

Do we know how many bedrooms in each?

The council are not happy at all about conversion from hotel/B&B to anything domestic. Planning and endless cost and red tape involved !!!!

Not quite as difficult as you think Nemesis. 4 years non trading and there is nothing to stop you i.e. Plas Tirrion, Hafod Y Mor, Beaulieu, and Messina to name the ones who have already changed in my neck of the woods.

That is quite true Blongb, but not alot of consolation for someone who is ill, or has had a bereavement and needs a speedy sale.

That's part of the risk you take when you buy a Small Hotel or B & B later in life Nem.

Bri, I cannot be exact, but I recall there will be approximately 80 rooms in the new Clarence Travel Lodge.

Thanks Fester.

I have thrown the Pioneer away but next week's NWWN may mention how many rooms in the new Premier Inn.

I walked past Broadway Boulevard this morning and part of the hoarding had blown down, leaving the side with the very worrying crack in the brickwork on view. Builders had gone to the trouble of inserting a steel girder frame into the doorway to try and prop the building up last year, but the long term future of this former theatre must surely be in doubt.

That's a serious subsidence crack so I hope that those in authority are aware of it before any serious damage is done to the property or a person
