it is a beautiful hotel :smile:
One word of caution, they have a Type 2 charging station in the car park but no rating plate and no obvious signs that it's woking. Only other socket is ONE 16A Schuko in the underground garage which was full of hotel fixtures and fittings (no cars use it). Note that breaker will trip if you try and use 16A but was ok overnight on 13A (breaker is Q23 in electrical panel close to socket).
I've suggested that they fit at a 32A 60309 to the Charging Station to cope with old school cars.

Does anyone know if we will be allowed to get into the Model S?
I didn't get a good look at the Model S at the factory event, everything went SO fast.
I'll be going to the show on March 18th, I hope they are not already breaking down the show by then. That is what usually happends with conferences.

As you have reserved a Model S already you should have no trouble but you need to contact your Tesla sales person to let them know when you are there.

Headlights don't point straight ahead, they point slightly towards the sidewalk. As the UK still drives on the left their headlights point left, when you take a British car to continental Europe you need headlight converters to prevent your headlights dazzling oncoming vehicles. I think the fine in France is around $100 for not having converters.
See more here: http://www.headlampconverters.com/
The lights change accordingly.
It's not a preset, it's a mechanical switch which is a PITA to get to among the xenon ballast electronics. I just buy the stick on lens.
If you come the other way, you need to convert too.

Don't forget there is the Roadster parade on Saturday. Also with just 90 minutes at the Tesla stand reception before we are supposed to head off to check in - and no doubt speeches etc - there may not be time to see the other EV goodness on display on Friday evening.
