Sydney 29/2 & 1/3

Is there something special on Friday 29th Feb & 1st March in Sydney CBD?
I tried booking hotels and they are all top rate on those two days, even on
the discound sites
Anyone know Why?

Thanks, no wonder I am having trouble getting a reasonable priced bed.

I was recently in Melbourne for the Melbourne Cup. The hotels close to the
city were asking top dollar. So we stayed in Geelong where prices were
normal and took the fast train to the city for the day at Flemington.

During the Mardi Gras in Sydney, the CBD and Eastern Suburbs would be
popular places to stay. Check out the prices of hotels at suburbs close to
the city like Cronulla, Strathfield, Manly etc. I don't think these places
would be all that popular with the gay crowd compred with the CBD and
Eastern Suburbs.

I don't know I would think that there would be a certain attraction to the
gay crowd for Manly :-) nice beach and get to ride the ferry to the main
drag.

Great spot to stay, and the same thought occurred to me:-)

Actually I remembered Manly fondly from my R and R from Viet Nam back in
71. I was very pleased to return last year and discover that it still has
some of the charm, though not totally, that it had back in the day. My wife
who had heard so much and kept telling me to not expect much was impressed
as well.
