Hotels In Bighton - A Big Thanks!

Brighton - Party Town!

Last weekend was my cousins stag weekend in Brighton and it's only now that im beginning to enter the real world. As it was felt that I had some expertise in the area I was put in charge of finding the best hotel deals we could get. After a few rejections and intense negotiations I managed to get us a good deal here, after promising to that we would be on our best behaviour....

Glasgow - First Pint 5.30am

5.30am in Glasgow Airport (Smeato's work) - 'Fancy a pint mate?'-just what I needed, a pre-breakfast lager!.....only 48 hours to go!...........

Our flight was left Glasgow at 7.30am prompt and we arrived at Gatwick Airport at 830am. We grabbed the shuttle from Gatwick to the train station and from there a seamless transfer down to Brighton.

Brighton - cool hotel

Having not been in Brighton for around 20 years, it was great to return. It was amazing how much of the place was familiar-the pier and the beach had obviously made an impression all those years ago. After checking into the Brighton hotel we were staying at, we then headed out and had some fun - however as im sure you are aware, 'what happens on the stag, stays on the stag'.

Stranded at Gatwick Airport

The return journey was not quite as smooth-we somehow go split up and 7 of us missed our return flight to Glasgow! This was mainly due to one group taking an earlier shuttle train and catching the flight without us (thanks guys). Stranded in Gatwick we had to come up with a plan . Luckily, most of us had the next day off and we were able to check in with no problems at all at the nearby Gatwick Airport Hotel, where we had a much needed lie down and brekfast.

Returning to Glasgow early the next morning the general consensus was that everyone had survived and it had all been worth it. I would recommend Brighton for any stag party-there's loads to do and the whole place has a great atmosphere in the summer.

Next month-its my best friend's stag in Leeds!.
