A bit of help needed please guys...... Decided (a bit last minute) to do a loop of several European race circuits. Just need help on the accommodation side. We are on a bit of a budget to be honest, so B&Bs/cheap hotels.

First stop - Spa - Where to stay?

Second stop - BMW HQ Stuttgart - Where to stay?

Third stop - Nurburgring - Where to stay?

Final stop - Le Mans - Where to stay?

Thank you in advance

Stuttgart, find the Solitude track to the west of the city. Wiki will have details.

Lemans, go to Rouen-les-Essarts on the way back.

That should enhance your trip.

Last time we were at Spa we stayed at Doux Repos, which is a short distance from Stavelot (about a 5, 10 min drive).
http://www.douxrepos.com/ (go to the french site from there, the English version seems to be off line ATM)
The food from the restraunt is lovely. Apart from the first night when we went to Stavelot, we ate at the hotel.
Stunning view from the room window.

The Motorsport Hotel in Nuerburg is a nice place to stay near the 'ring. It's 5 mins from both the GP circuit and Nordschliefe. 50EUR/night incl. breakfast last time I stayed earlier in the year.

Nurburgring - Hotel an der Nordschliefe.
Eddy is an amazing chap and very friendly. Next to the Adenau entrance to the ring, you can see the track from the balcony!

Burgstube - Run by Martin who's British and has excellent knowledge of the track
Altes Forsthaus - Closest to the Ring Entrance
Dorint (if you want a 4 star hotel experience)

Thank you once again guys. Staying with Sabine Schmitz sounds very appealing I have to say.
