Travelrepublic is so cheap - is it OK?

joshtbh

Hi all,

I'm looking at hotels in Orlando, Florida at the moment, and Travel Republic is blowing every other agent out of the water, most of the time by hundreds of pounds for a 12 night stay.

Are Travel Republic legit in people's experience? I am basing my holiday research around its prices so would be grateful for some honest feedback please.

don't mean to sound rude, but do a search, I did

I have also booked a hotel only in Majorca for this summer, was very pleasantly surprised by how much cheaper they where

I posted a similar question/thread, and was very pleased with the response

Yes Florida can be had for bargain price if your looking for late deal try first choice and cost it up on line because sometimes it shows a lot cheaper than advertised price.
Yes many people here use Travelrepublic without any problems.
We used them to go to Corfu and found hotel in middle of no where and have heard this few times with TR so check out locations first on trip advisor or holidays uncovered
And last but not least at not wishing to gloat what price was florida ?
we usually pay anything from £450 upto about £750 for 2 adults and 1 child staying on International drive with flight included my travel use to do bargain packages but havnt seen any recently

I'm sure TR are absolutely fine - but they are in court at the moment on charges of breaching ATOL regulations. The general public can breach these but agents are not allowed - one rule for all should apply surely!

I think Travel Republic are okay as if you check their website you will find that they are ABTA bonded.

Used Travelrepublic a few times with no problems at all.

A friend of mine had booked with them when one of the airlines went bust last year and their customer service was excellent
