alt.polycon 8 accommodation guide version 1.1

NOTE TO OVERSEAS VISITORS:
To dial any of the phone numbers given, dial your country's international
dialing code, followed by 44 (for the UK), then the rest of the number
minus the initial 0.

OFFICIAL alt.polycon HOTEL:
Quality Hotel
West Street
Brighton
BN1 2RQ
Tel: 01273 220033, Fax: 01273 778000

The hotel has over 100 bedrooms which are identical apart from the fact
that some have two single beds and some have one double bed. These
bedrooms all have an ensuite bathroom which includes a toilet, sink and
bath with shower attachment. No triple or quad rooms are available, but
it is possible to book two adjacent rooms with an interconnecting door if
a family would like to stay together.

The special alt.polycon room rates are £60 for single occupancy of a
double or twin room and £75 for double occupancy of a double or twin room.
This includes a full English breakfast, and VAT. This rate is available
not only during the con itself, but for as long as you wish to stay. When
booking your room, be sure to specify what day you want to check in on as
well as what day you want to check out on, and be sure to say that you're
with alt.polycon in order to get this highly reduced room rate. Please
call 01273 220033 and ask for the Reservations Dept. If they have trouble
finding the room block, try telling them it's the "Internet Users
Conference" :)


ALTERNATIVE ACCOMMODATION: BED & BREAKFASTS
I thought it was important to get this information out to you as quickly
as possible. As a result, I haven't actually had time to sort these bed &
breakfast places by proximity to the venue. However, a good map of
Brighton can be found at: http://www.visitbrighton.com/
You can also use http://www.streetmap.co.uk to find locations.

A note about the diamonds: In England, hotels and bed & breakfasts are
rated by the English Tourism Council for services and facilities. You can
find a guide to these ratings at:

This is about 5 minutes walk from the main con hotel.
