hotel checker?

towncryer

does anyone have a direct line to martin, what are the possibilities of doing a hotel checker (baesed on flight checker), this is by far the most difficult area to sve money on when trying to arrange a holiday.
I find many cheap flights, but cheap accomdation, is a pig to find, without spending your life trawling.

Thanks for this useful post saveapenny. I have just booked my eurostar tickets and due to demand had to change my dates of holiday to take advantage of the deal. The hotel I had booked was only available my preferred dates and it had taken me AGES to find it at the right price. I saw your post and used https://www.hotelscomparison.com and got a similar hotel to the one i booked for my new dates which didn't take me all day to find!

I have saved many a penny using www.hotelscomparison.com and I first knew about it because of this site.

Oooooh, just watching Martin on the tv now going on about switching utility users.

I think there is no option but to put a bit of effort in, with https://www.tripadvisor.com and https://www.hotelscomparison.com as useful tools, to be sure that you get a hotel in an OK location. People pick very cheap hotels in Nice and Prague and are disappointed.

www.hotelscomparison.com is great as a starting point. I also check www.find-rooms.com , www.travelrepublic.com and finally www.easyjethotels.com The latter offer "DOUBLE THE DIFFERENCE" back if you find it cheaper. T&Cs apply. In many cases its not hard to get it cheaper.Conditions basicaly are

• Not hotel chain own website
• Booking must be in GBP
• Same dates /room type
• paid up front
• Bonded supplier
• Will only refund Max 4 people 1 week

Last point not hard to get round. Groups-do several bookings different people-(check avail first reqd no rooms + add a few for safety net)

2 week holidays-1 week with cheapest supplier (this can be any website inc hotels own) next week with easyjethotels just make sure the difference you quote fullfills the T&Cs (not neccessarily the hotel you booked for 1st week)

full t&cs are under the hotelopia safe 6 tab on the website.

*Hotelopia is the supplier for easyjet hotels however on hotelopias own site "safe 6" only refunds the difference not double the difference as on www.easyjethotels.com *

The default landing page is geared to you only booking hotels @ www.easyjet.com destinations but for ALL OTHER DESTINATIONS a link just below "choose your destinations" drop down box "for other destinations -click here"
the exact page is http://www.easyjethotels.net/az_list.jsp?let=A&country=All

The last trip we took (2 rooms 2 days) after booking and notifying them we got a refund equivelent to 25% of the original booking price. (32GBP saved)

This really is not hard. 20 minutes to save some real cash
