Does anyone know any good hotels you can go to for a creepy weekend?

Well, according to this review, the Royal Albion in Brighton is haunted ...

I am NOT going to say ... you didn't hear this from me, okay ... I did totally NOT tell you this ... I don't wanna get AB sued ... the hotel is a bit of, err ... a dump? ... I didn't say that.

You could stay at the nearby Thistle (jolly), or the Grand (elegant), or Legend's (gay, but also jolly), and just go to the Albion for a quick visit.

You have to come down our way here in Cornwall, Laura, - reckoned to be Britain's most ghostly inn and made famous by Daphne du Maurier.

The Talbot in Oundle is good as well, apparently, and then if they are still doing bandb, Hodge Hill in the Lakes, complete with its Spanish Armada beams and panelling - and a young 13 year old who comes out of the wall, down the Elizabethan stairs and turns into their lounge.

Room 4 at the Jamaica by the way.

Ooooh, DT ... now THAT is a good book !

try googling it. there are some that advertise.

It also depends on how far you are looking to travel. I hear the Jamaica Inn near Bodmin is suppose to be haunted.

Many 'local' ghost books will include various hotels in that area as a location for hauntings, usually if a building is old it'll have a ghost attached.
If your interested I suggest looking for an area you'd like to go to then look for a local - or county - ghost book. I know there are several books on Devon that include hotels among the haunted properties.

whoops! should have read the answers first! sorry DT didn't realise you'd already mentioned the jamaica inn but at least that makes two who recommend it.

I went to Jamaica Inn about 12 months back, there were certainly spirits at work trying to get the money out of my pocket with those prices!!!

You could try Cowley Manor, just outside Cheltenham on the road to Cirencester. I used to live there many years ago when it was run as a youth activity centre for outdoor pursuits etc (I can't remember the word for the courses). I used to live in and I know for a fact that one of the wings is haunted, having had a few strange experiences myself, both whilst I lived there alone and at one point with a work colleague that I shared with. I have heard that it is now a hotel. We were both so spooked one night that we had to call my friend's boyfriend to pick us up to take us into Cheltenham. I went to stay with my Nan where I had to be cut out of my lovely over the knee boots which I had pulled on in haste without putting any socks on!
