We have twice stoped at hotels on the outskirts of the airport but hade to get transit van quite a while before we actully needed to. Want to stay at Airport this time, can anybody recomend one. Ta Viv
I cant believe not one person has a recomendation. Viv
Sorry Viv,
I'm afraid to say I haven't got a scooby-do. Truth be told, I've never even been to Manchester - that's a bit rubbish isn't it.
I'm sure there must be loads of folk who'll be able to help though.
If it's the south-west you're ever after some time though, I'm your person :-)
Hi Becky
Try the Radison SAS thats near T 2 and i think you can leave your car there until you get back.
Also they is a holiday inn or a travelodge near T3.
Cheers for that Russell,
I think it was Viv who was after the info though - I believe she's flying out from Manchester next month.
i'm pretty much sorted as we fly from Gatwick with Easyjet on the 27th, but I'm sure she'll be pleased to know what's available etc.
BeckyB :-)
Holiday Inn do a good deal with park and fly, just check their web site. Free transport to terminal door (2 Mins). Have stayed there a few times, going from East Midlands this year which is a tiny bit nearer home. Hope you get sorted Viv
Paul (nearly packed and very excited!!)
I thought you were going on the 29th Paul? Surely you're not packed already??
Sorry Viv, never stayed at Manchester before flying, but I would suggest you look for a Hilton. Their deal at East Midlands this year was fantastic (although I did book it months in advance). Cost £80 for one night plus 15 days parking and transfers.
We use a great parking place at Manchester - I'll post separately in case anyone is interested.
Have a great holiday
Fiona
Sorry Becky
Must have got my specs mixed up when i was reading the post.
We might see you in Arillas as we fly out on the 29th .
Ha! Ha!
Not to worry Russell - I know what it's like.
So where are you flying from? Manchester? We might very well see you. How long are you going for & where are you staying?
Oh yes, is it your first time in Arillas or have you been before?
Nosy little devil aren't I!
BeckyB :-)
Thanks for the help guys but booked one just before I came on site.
It would have cost us £80 return to airport and we have booked Crowne Plaza and 8 days parking for £99. My friend says they have a very nice sauna,steam room and swimming pool and a very good chinese resturant so I am looking forward to starting our holiday the day before we fly and all for an extra £19 can't be bad. Viv

Hi Becky
We fly out on the 29th at 20.45 from Manchester and are staying at the Rainbow complex for the week.
This will be the 3rd time we have been' we love the place.
So we might see you around when we get there.
Sandy,
Yes we do go out on 29th and yes we are almost packed!! This is because we are moving home on 25th Bedlam in Cleethorpes at the moment, will be well ready for a Rainbow welcome! Will you be making an appearance?
Russell
We also arrive on 29th, flying from EM at 1030Hrs, so will meet up with you around the bar sometime!
Look forward to seing you all out there - possibly?
Russell,
It will be our third time too - third time lucky eh? :-)
Paul & Denise,
Hope the move goes well. Boy, will you guys be ready for a break or what!
BeckyB :-)
HI Viv and Pete,
when you told me you had booked October i went green,we have decided to give it a miss this autumn'Even though i come from less than 5 miles from Ringway i could not have told you of any Hotels on the Airport.
On a side note i am flying up to Manchester September 30th to spend the day with my father and then flying back to Exeter that evening,all fro free cost me 650 airmiles no cash.
Enjoy your holiday.
Hi Paul&Denise
will be seeing you in the bar for sure but not until we had some sleep as we do not fly until 20 45 and get there around 2pm.
Becky are you staying at the Rainbow asa well?
Hi Harold, sounds good to me. Hope Dad is ok. Let us know how it goes. Love Viv
Russell
Will look forward to that, but don't think we will be around that late on our first night!! We do tend to be one of last at the bar most nights though. Safe journey, see you soon.
