Prince William,
Prince Harry and the Duchess of Cambridge
have been turned down by a plush hotel in Amiens ahead of their visit for the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Somme in June.And the royals may have to stay in more humble accommodation after being turned away.
Hôtel Marotte, which charges £270 for a night’s stay in its most luxurious room, is the only five-star hotel in the area.
A spokesman for Hôtel Marotte told Express.co.uk: “We were asked to accommodate the royal family
but we had to tell them we were already fully booked.“We are only a small hotel with 12 rooms and we’ve been booked up for a year now. The 100th anniversary of the Battle of Somme
is a massive event for the area.We are expecting between 25,000 and 30,000 people for the event.” Click link for full post from EXPRESS.
