InterContinental Hotels

 The DMF are glad to announce that it has teamed up with InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) to bring its members a special discount offer.   IHG, which owns the InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn and Express by Holiday Inn brands here in the UK, is offering DMF members 25% off bed and breakfast on weekend breaks at over 400 participating hotels in the UK , Europe and Middle East all year round.  This can only be claimed by members and their carers and should be booked via the secretary 0191 4163172 or his assistant Mr. Peter Lyne 0151 6483457. 
 
IHG understands that every customer has different needs and they have aimed to make their hotel facilities available and accessible to all of their guests equally.  To this end, the UK hotels offer a range of facilities for guests with a perspective on disability including the following:

 *          Designated Blue Badge car parking

*          Accessible facilities - bar, restaurant and meeting rooms

*          Accessible washroom

*          Accessible bedrooms

*          Menus available in large print

*          Induction loops

*          Assistance dogs welcome

*           Ceiling track hoist facilities in selected hotels in Birmingham, Cardiff and London

On making a reservation in the UK, it is adviseable to highlight any access needs you may have.
 
We expect that this arrangement will particularly benefit members travelling abroad, there is a Holiday Inn attached to most airports both in the UK and abroad. It could also be of interest to the independent types who like to make their own arrangements rather than travel with a tour company.
 
All Holiday Inns have wheelchair accessible rooms, however, please be aware that most do not have level access showers. These are provided in the Express by Holiday Inn hotels.  With this in mind, please make sure at the time of booking, that the hotel of your choice, has available your minimum requirements.
