Bruges accommodation information again

From Roland:

 
All

This year I have the job of looking at hotels. Below are details for two hotels which Nicky has given the ‘thumbs up’, are central and which still have plenty of rooms and are offering the choir very attractive group rates which are competitive for Bruges in August: the IBIS Brugge Centrum and the Hotel Cordoeanier. Please check them out – and see how much you will save compared with booking direct.

If you want the group rate (and want to help others get the group rate) we have to submit all the rooms as one reservation (ie not all separate bookings). I will do this so please let me know your preferred hotel, room type and names. If you don’t want me to know who you’re sharing with of course you can either book direct or you can just say ‘and guest’; but we will find out anyway, unless you prefer to book a hotel away from everyone else which of course anyone is free to do.

Note the IBIS has only doubles and twins; the 2 star Cordoeanier has a 3 night minimum for the group rate but it also has rooms for 3 & 4 people which can work out quite cheap if you take ear plugs and are prepared to share with close friends and queue for the bathroom.
 
Some people will be going on Thursday and returning Monday.

We need 15 at the IBIS and 20 at the Cordoeanier to get the discount. I will use my discretion when to place the bookings – so please email soon – or let me know if there is a reason why you want me to wait a short time (eg to persuade the boss / wife / husband to give you a day off or to persuade someone in altos or tenors to share a room with you) which I will do if there are still lots of rooms available. Also below is the list of definite and possible Bruges singers so if you want to share a room with someone you can see who else is going and approach as you wish.
