Travelodge price question

snowyowl

Hi

On the Travelodge website I notice that the prices vary day to day, so how come when you try to book for say 3 days, does it try to charge you the highest day's price for all three days? I don't mind paying the prices as they are set, but don't see why I should pay the higher price when one or two of the days are advertised at the lower price.

Does anyone have any ideas please, or is it a case of booking each day separately? And if that was the case, would it mean checking out and in each time...:mad:

Many thanks

have you tried phoning the hotel?

i have found this before, what you need to do is to book all the nights as seperate bookings, ie fri @£29 ,sat @£19, sun @£19 then you will be charged the daily rate, otherwise they charge the full rate for every night.
but make sure all the rooms are availble for the nights you want

Ditto here, it's pretty dumb but as Dazzer says the only way round it is to make seperate bookings. I've found that you don't have to book each day seperately only the ones with different prices so in Dazzers example you'd only have to make 2 bookings (one day @ £29 and 2 days @ £19, unless of course the £29 day was in the middle then you'd have to do 3 bookings).

Also when you arrive make sure you point out to them that you have actually got multiple bookings otherwise they might make you check out and then back in. On my last stay where I'd made seperate bookings the receptionist said all I had to do was get my card re-activated but was grateful I'd pointed it out to her.

Thank you all for taking time to reply. That's great, as long as I know there's no easy solution, I'll go ahead and make separate bookings, saves a few pounds which we can spend on something else.

Yes, I've just booked 2 rooms for a week, had to pay more or risk not getting the rooms wanted and not being able to cancel as they are saver rates. Also, there is the CC fee each time. I'm not loving the TL website at the mo.
