I'm on my rostered time off work during that event... Seems like an excuse for a trip to Blackpool!

Will check that hotel out

 

[Deleted member 2463]

no don't stay in that hotel its a true ****hole! anywhere but that place.

 

[Wizcat]

no don't stay in that hotel its a true ****hole! anywhere but that place.

And by 'that' hotel - I think you mean the Norbreck? Yeah, loads of choice in Blackpool, so for this one it's best to get somewhere other than the event hotel.

yeah sorry its a good venue for the event but not to stay in apparently!

 

[ailsaclunie]

David - do not stay at Norbrek . You will not be sleeping alone [emoji3]

Yeah I might be wrong, but when David said 'that hotel' I presumed he was talking about the one Poi linked in the post above his - not the Norbreck.

My first ever gaming event was Play Expo in 2010 at the Norbrek. Made the mistake of staying there too! Horrific!

In 2011, we stayed in fab b&b/pub along the road. Can’t remember the name of it.

 

[wilbers]

Interesting. So its a Thursday only event (with PlayExpo as a whole on Thursday+Friday), not a Saturday+Sunday one?

Um, are you still using last year's calendar?

Play Expo and the NLP is Sat/Sun the 23rd/24th October

 

[wilbers]

D'oh! I was looking at September thinking it was October.

Also Northern Trains £1 ticket offer ended on 22nd October which I should have remembered was a Friday.

The Fossil Tree sounds familiar @bigphil

 

[mufcmufc]

On holiday so will miss this. Last time at the Norbreck was good and the cosplay ladies were epic.

Just DO NOT STAY at the Norbreck

 

[broomstick]

Great stuff, my local I'm just down the road in Lytham. Where do we buy tickets from nlp or play expo. Cheers Andy.

Great venue for event , fantastic vibe , great chippie over the road but REPEAT DO NOT STAY IN THE NORBRECK!

 

[AlanJ]

Everyone needs to stay at the Norbreck at least once.

 

[Big Phil]

Exactly. Then you’ll come to appreciate Daventry a lot more.

 

[Sako-TRG]

Just read some glowing reviews on Trip advisor.
You would get a better nights kip at the Overlook hotel - room 237.

 

[Deleted member 2463]

I’m planning to be in the US that week (if they allow us back in!) but the pinball will be great at NLP! Would be good to get this show back in Manchester though as it’s so much easier to get to Manchester.

The Norbreck is owned by Britannia Hotels, they have won awards for the last 8 years , the UK's worst hotel chain!

I stayed at the Norbreck in the 90's, it was horrific then, best was the carpet company rolling up carpets and taking them away due to non payment.

We went a couple of years ago to Play Expo for the day, the place was filthy, it really is a 5hit hole!

I thought that was a different show (Play Manchester Vs Play Blackpool)....

 

[Sako-TRG]

I enjoyed my stay at Daventry Mecure.
When I went to check out, the blonde curly haired Dude said “Its fine sir, looking at the system, you already checked out earlier” …… lol

Christ how many more tries at this are you going to have Neil, you've been saying this for years now!

 

[Deleted member 2463]

Been saying it since Xmas 2018 yes it’s irritating they are taking so long but it’s coming or someone spent a lot of money for no good reason.
