    After frantically trying every year for a room, I managed to get a £1 room and a £29 room one night after the other! This is okay though, right? You can't book 2x £1 rooms but you can book one of each? I'm a bit worried now...

    (And yeah, I've got 4 confirmation emails for the £29 room!)

    Brilliant - managed to squeeze a booking in last time at £1 for a Sunday night and this time managed to get a full weekend - Saturday/Sunday night for £1 and £29 respectively on 12th & 13th June this time. So a weekend in London at a cracking hotel for £30 - just need to get the train booked now and find myself a weekend date to enjoy it with in the next month!!!!

    Finally I've managed to book a room for £1. Thank you so much for letting me know about the sale. First time I've managed to grab one :)

    I have received 5 confirmation emails so it should be just a bug in their system. Otherwise, I'll have plenty of rooms to spend one night :)
    Goal: Win a car (or cash to buy one :))! -- Haha goal from when I was a student. Never actually won this but got a good job instead.

    What I achieved:
    Car paid in full straightaway.
    Two properties fully paid. Wohhoooo!

    Hi does anyone know if you can swap bookings/sell them, or would we need to show the credit card on check in that was used to book??
    Just asking coz we managed to get a room for £29 but booked the wrong date by mistake!!
    If it is possible, does anyone have a booking for Saturday 24th July they would swap with us? we have Friday 23rd July but cannot make it!!! or would anyone like to buy it??

    I'm sure if you cannot go you know someone close to you who will want to. Otherwise I would certainly be willing to pay you for the reservation up to about say £39, as long as the booking can be transferred. And if moneysavingexpert rules allow. :)

    Congratulations to all other successful applicants.

    Even with preparation and cutting and pasting, I took 5 minutes to fill in my booking Having to make three corrections, didn't help. And I always thought I was pretty proficient on a pc!

    Still I enjoyed trying! lol

    I wouldn't want to make a profit from it, so £1 would be fine! ;o) I'll make a note of your name, and if we don't use the room, and the Hoxton allows it, then I'll be in touch!

    Hi guys,

    If anyone cannot make their trip, please let me know. The misses wants to see St. Pauls and it would be nice to take her.

    Thank you
