The Europa are giving a quote of around 85.00 pounds per single room and
120.00 pounds for a double room (these prices were quoted for a group of
around 5 people staying)

Dukes charge 95.00 pounds for a single room and 110.00 pounds for the
double room.

Renshaws charge 49.00 per room and all their rooms can have double
occupancy.  This hotel wouldn't be as nice as the others - but then this
is reflected in the price.

Benedicts is central and close to the University area - I've never
stayed in the hotel but they do have a really good restaurant and bar.

Single Room 65.00 pounds per night, Double room 75.00 per night.

I will be back from the Perl Whirl on 22nd January - if you haven't
organised anything by then get in touch and I'll see if I can sort it
out for you.
