Travelodge From £9 a Room Summer Sale Has Started

Comments

  • I got up early to book a travelodge near birmingham for my sisters wedding in July,clicked on the one I wanted,thought great £9 went to go to basket and changed to £19 a night. Ended up paying it though as need the room,still cheap in my eyes but angry couldnt get it for £9.

    Someone checked out and put through their credit card before you. Happens with all sales. I was gutted when the M&S Halloween kids hats got removed from my basket back in November just before I managed to hit the complete button. :D
    I want to be credit card and loan free by Christmas 2010

    Booked 2 rooms for gatwick in August (early flight)
    1 at £12 but the 2nd one was £19 :cry:
    Confirmation emails arrived in minutes (this was at 7:30am) and both showed up in my bookings straight away

    I've just spotted a flaw in there booking system. If you want a 2 night stay and one night is advertised as £9 and the other £19 then if you try to book it you will be charged £19 for each night.

    To avoid this book the £9 night as a one night stay and then the £19 as a one night stay. You can do this in one transaction by adding another stay (button is at the bottom of the page near the checkout button).

    Staff on the reservations line have confirmed to me that the alloations manager will ensure you are allocated the same room for both days upon reciept of the order.

  • In case any one has concerns. I booked one of these some time ago. When I arrived, they had no water, so the hotel was closed - but they booked me in at a Premier Inn (much dearer) at THEIR cost. I've always found Travelodge OK - bit basic and not in the best location, but always spotless and comfortable, so no complaints (particular at £9, or even £19/£29.
