Many hotels do have parking but, if not, street parking is scarce, expensive and rigidly enforced by a set of neo-nazi traffic wardens called locally the "Blue Meanies" from their uniforms and intransigent attitude towards parking infringements. Street parking is controlled far beyond the city centre so even some suburban areas are involved. Also new legislation is the pipeline to stop people leaving the country if they have unpaid traffic fines - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...overnment.html.
