Thanks for getting back to me. I'm going to go by eurotrain.

I'm looking at booking my hotel. Do I have to consider a hotel that can provide certain dietry requirements, or will I just be sipping water and juice?

My schedule is this,

March 27 travel to Bruges and meet Dr Dillemans - Stay in hotel

March 28 check out of hotel, have operation, stay overnight in hospital

March 29 check out of hospital, check back into hotel

March 30 stay in hotel visit by nurse

March 31 check out and travel home.

Is this a similar schedule to what you followed?

Hi

The hotels recommended by http://www.obesitycare.co.uk/ know why you are there, you wont be eating much maybe a yoghurt I didn't fancy anything so just sipped water and juice.
I didn't stay as long, due to the amount of holiday I had left to take. I traveled home on the day the nurse was due.
I arrived on the Thursday had my pre obs done that day, had the op on the Friday went back to the hotel on the Saturday morning and left the hotel Sunday at 12:00. They wanted me to arrive on the wednesday to have obs, spend the Thursday looking around and then go home on the Monday. As there was a problem with the flights at the time it would of meant travelling home on the Tuesday and of course the hotel would of been dearer. At the time they weren't doing a very good deal with the hotel and travelling so it worked out cheaper for them just to book the hotel and I arranged the flight myself and paid for the hotel when I left. If you do this, make sure when you leave the hotel they have only charged you for the time you stayed. They went to charge me from the Wednesday to the Monday but I had all the paper work and of course my flight schedul.
Anyway good Luck
