TRAVELODGE how I got a room for £11.40, £34.40 for 3 nights

I know there is a thread for £15 a night stay at Travelodge but thought I could help more MSE's by posting this.
Here's how I got 3 nights for £34.20p. Quidco are paying £3.60 cashback for each booking. I wanted to stay in Cardif for 3 nights, instead of booking 3 nights on 1 booking I booked each night on seperate transactions.
Booking 1) Sep 30th cost £15 via Quidco £3.60 cashback = £11.40
Booking 2) Oct 1st cost £15 via Quidco £3.60 cashback = £11.40
Booking 3) Oct 2nd cost £15 via Quidco £3.60 cashback = £11.40
Hey presto !!!!!!!!! TOTAL COST for 3 nights £34.20.
There are loads of rooms left, happy booking

    Nice, thanks.
  • but booking them all seperately would make them seperate bookings, meaning you would have to swap rooms every nite as they hotel will see them as seperate bookings :confused:

    Yes quite right but you also get fresh bed linen every night, or I tell them when I get there that we are booked in for 3 nights, they will proberbly let us have the same room as it saves on cleaning, either way it's worth the saving I think.

    P.S. Have emailed the hotel and said we are there for 3 nights, had a reply thanking me and confirming our room is for 3 nights, hope this helps you icecubequeen

    TOTAL COST for 3 nights £34.40.

    Youve been over charged if thats the total cost,

    11.40 x 3 = 34.20
    not 34.40!

    If it's the Travelodge in CENTRAL Cardiff near the railway station do watch out for rooms facing the main road with windows that don't close fully and/or secondary-glazing installed the wrong way around so the seals seal air, while leaving the gaps open <durh!>.

    And avoid the rooms right at the back of the hotel as there was a weekend disco back there - although from your dates you'll miss that.

    I stayed there a couple of years back and clearly their maintenance programme/management at that time was seriously flawed and previous customers had clearly not complained enough. It was only the 4th room I was allocated that I was prepared to stay in!

    When travelodge SEE that the same persons name is staying for more than one night they keep you in the same room....or so they told me....better to check though.
    I luv travelodge!!!!!:T
    You may walk and you may run
    You leave your footprints all around the sun
    And every time the storm and the soul wars come
    You just keep on walking

    Use your judgement, and above all, be honest with yourself. :)
