over booked, but we booked in march the company said they have had problems before so they are no longer using that hotel . me & kinley cat are on a flight with 28 other wakey fans need to find out if every body in our party have been moved , we stayed in perpignan last time but we will travel up early saturday so its not a problem

I booked ages ago and this was the only hotel that was free at the time. There is something else going on in Perpignan on that weekend and thats why all the hotels are full.

Its the International Exhibition of Photo Journalism - its an annual event in Perpignan.

Hope they have not double booked our rooms at the Citea.

Canet is beautiful, beach is fantastic and nice restaurants.....lovely place if you are with your family to stop ,do not know what its like on a night as only went during day but would have recommended going there to anyone stopping in Perpignan anyway...enjoy just hope you have loads of money as the Perpignan area was expensive anyway prior to the demise of the pound against the euro.

About 40 euro's for a taxi of 4 into Perpignan.

kinley cat and I, did you learn nothing at crofton high school????
Anyway, happens! We'll still have a laugh, so no bother. Do t think it will effect anyone else staying at the citea, booked through any other company etc. Just a company decision made by CFW as far as I can see.

Taxi is 10 euro mate, takes 10, 15 mins only. Beach is ok, few nice bars but not much else there. Its ok though.

cheers pal, your 10 euro taxi sounds better than the 40 euro quotes, it wasn't a Frenchman on a bike was it? Onions, stripey jumper etc......

I think you will find it is 10 euros each.

We had booked the Citea hotel through Catalan Sports tours and have now been moved to the Malibu Beach

Any reasons as to why you have been moved ?

Overbooking at the Citea, there is 8 of us now in Canet - Complex looks quite good though.

unless they have been told different to us, it's because of the reasons on my earlier post, I believe Catalan sports tours is the business partner of CFW tailor made travel, who we have booked through.

sorry for butting in on this,but it stinks.I've been 3 times to Perpignan (Warrington),the 1st time we booked with this company and stayed at the Malibu.Its a nice enough hotel/resort,but its a good 25-30 minute walk into Canet along a main road.Its in the middle of nowhere!!.
The 2nd time,we sorted our own flights and hotel.(stayed at Kyriad).No probs.
The 3rd time,we sorted our own flight,but they sorted out the Kyriad for us.1st night was fine.Saturday,day of game,we went out at 11am,got back at 2am next morning,to find,that our rooms had been given to a number of American backpackers!!and that we had been moved to l'hotel de la loge.

My advice for those staying at Malibu would be to check in and walk into Canet and the beach,it is quite nice and classy.On the day of the game,get taxis into Perpignan about dinnertime and spend the day there.Also stay for a few hours after the game and get taxis back.

If you've not ben before,enjoy it and good luck for the game.
