Amiens

We will be in Amiens 23rd - 25th April next year for the Anzac Day Services. I have been searching for accommodation in Amiens via the usual websites eg Bookings.com but all the main Hotels are booked out. Does anyone have any ideas for other options for a family of 5.

We'll be driving from Paris to Amiens on a Sunday... Are restaurants open on Sunday afternoon/evening in Amiens? Any recommendations?

Hello, I intend to be in Amiens next October, and of course I plan to visit the famous Cathedral. I've read that the Cathedral is open from 8:30 to 17:30 during October. Nevertheless the Cathedral site mentions that the tour hour (on October) is at 15:45. OK - at first, I understood that free visits are from 8:30 to 17h, excluding mass times, and that there is a paid guided tour at 15:45. But... on other months (July, June, August...) there are times for "visits" and for "free visits" ("visite libre"). So, what's the difference between a free visit time and just an "open" time? Will I have problems to visit (without tour) the cathedral out of the 15:45 visit? I planned to be in the Cathedral during morning, and I didn't want to arrive there just to see the door closed, or access forbidden. Thanks in advance, merci.

Hi All, Not sure if you can help me or not. My wife & I will be visiting Amiens in April 2008 and driving from there to Lille, stopping at a couple of WW1 cemetaries to visit graves of grandparents who were killed in France in 1917.
