Hostel Maps via Google Maps

I wrote about about our Hostel Map integration via Google Maps a few weeks ago.  We want to do the same thing for the the UK and Ireland - but how do we convert English addresses into longitude and latitude?  We used geocoder.us for the US addresses.

I’ve always used http://www.streetmap.co.uk/

After you search on the address, go to the bottom of the screen where it shows the coordinates. If you want lat/longs just click the convert link and you’ll be taken to a page giving the coordinates in different formats.

Dunno if it handles Ireland, but I’ve geocoded a bunch of stuff in England.
