Good News!
 
I just called their host hotel: Delta Armouries in London and booked my reservation.

http://www.deltahotels.com/en/hotels...don-armouries/

I received the festival room rate of 89 dollars (this is a NICE hotel!) per night.

I had also joined (didn't remember that I did this!) and therefore receive FREE wireless access for the nights you stay if you join the Delta Privilege Club prior to booking. I don't know about anyone else, but free wireless is huge for me! So, if interested, you can book for a really great hotel and join the hotel club membership first before you book.

There is no code that you can input directly into the hotel website, so I would just call the hotel directly.

I just asked for the rate for the London Lesbian Film Festival and they have a block of rooms available for the really good rate of 89.00 (tax not included) for a sweet hotel.

This is really good considering I stayed recently at a highway hotel for more than that and this is a historic hotel in the heart of downtown London!

:)

(no, I am not affiliated with this festival!)

Damn - I don't think I'll be able to make this. But it does sound like a lot of fun. I'll try to see what I can do.

Hey Salty! How are you doing? I love Port Credit - but it has been a while since I've done anything more than a drive along Lakeshore Road.

Oh Ms Chancie, I would like it if you could go too. :(

HSIN - I don't think that Team Sarnia will be staying overnight, unfortunately. :( I'd be all over that but I KNOW that particular battle is one that I won't be able to win. (However - that totally is a good price on that hotel.)

Sure you can make it!

If you bring a carload of people it'll cost less to travel -and- I'll be your bff.

C'mon, I used to drive from Toronto to London -all- the time just to go to a bar for a couple of hours and then go home.

(I forget where you are from though, Wryly. I'm bad like that.)

ETA - oh yeah, Niagara area. Duh. YOU CAN DO IT.

Wryly 03-07-2011 07:30 PM

Betenoire - I'll see if I can switch what I have planned that day (sporting event in Toronto) but I'm not sure if I will be able to. *sigh*
I don't have a problem with the drive - - I used to do Toronto to Windsor all the time.....when I lived in Toronto. Now I live near the Falls - the drive to London isn't bad at all.
But, like I said, I have something else scheduled already. If I can switch and make it to the festival then perhaps I'll get a hotel.

Hopefully you can make it, then!

So far:

HowSoonIsNow
betenoire (me!)
oneye (my lawfully wedded wedded person)

are going for sure.

And I -think- ABb is also coming with?

I know me and Nick will be there for the Saturday films. I would -like- to go to the dance and to see the drag kings, so I'm just going to go ahead and put my foot down and say we'll be there as well. Because I like to play at being the boss.

:blueheels:


Some people are going to put on their dancing shoes!

Seriously! My favourite positive stereotype about Canadians is that we are nice. I like to reinforce that one.

We'd let you in, too. Canada likes when new people move in!

But when you get here the government will be an asshole and refuse to let you work in your actual profession. We'll make it insanely hard for you to get certified at ____ here, so you will be stuck driving a taxi for the foreseeable future.

(I've never really understood that. I mean, if someone is (for example) a doctor it's easier for them to move to Canada - but then we don't let them BE a doctor once they get here.)

Well, you know. I hope that if I talk about how nice we are that people won't notice that I'm not personally nice.
