That is terrible!! I am really sad to hear that happened to you, what hotel did they put you at maybe it's not that bad.Scrufflet
I totally sympathise as the London Holiday Inn Express conveniently cancelled my res. I didnt receive an email from them like they stated. Then they want me to stay in a 'roach' motel.Now we have to stay at some distance away and drive to the event. We were also able to get the parking pass.
I reserved the parking/bus pass but am realizing that it might be better to do something else. Sure you're guaranteed drop-off at Budweiser but it's $60.00 per person, not per car so we might just drive to a school or mall lot, then cab it from there. Luckily we haven't paid for the permit yet, just reserved it.
Agh. Nothing is easy.[/QUOTE. Oh I didn't realize it was per person either not that cost effective.
That is a great idea there are a couple of schools near the Exeter hotels and they are pretty close to the bus stop.
the kids are on holiday that week so the schools will be empty.

More Parking Tips.
The London Convention Centre will have parking as well just $10 for the day, it is located at York and Wellington. It was mentioned on twitter and facebook today.
During the Figure Skating World Championships you can park in our underground parking lot for $10/day. (entrance at the east end of the LCC)
Parking will be subject to availability.
Apologies! I got this completely wrong! I called again and confirmed that it is $60.00 per car plus bus passes. We have since been able to make alternate arrangements so will probably cancel this. Aah, excitement builds!
to park at the convention centre would be first come first serve. Depending on where you are staying it maybe easier to just take the bus, talk to your hotel and they can help you when you arrive. If you are at any of the hotels on or just off of wellington rd south you could drive to the mall and leave your car and take the bus, easy and cheaper. I have posted info about buses in another thread.Yikes. I never thought about anything of this. Obviously, I'm a must be a World Figure Skating Championship rookie because my husband and I just bought our tickets and booked a hotel room. So does would you need to reserve a space at the Convention Centre or do you just show up (super early I guess) and hope for the best?
As a New Yorker, I'm embarrassed to say I get caught off guard by this. It's just subway and walking in NYC. Driving? Parking? What's that?
I'm so excited!! I've never been to ANY live figure skating event and my husband surprised me with tickets to the WC for Christmas!
Did they tell you the price of the individual bus passes on top of the $60?
