jellyhead

working in chrome for me now, but I am struggling due to lack of spatial awareness and poor knowledge of london .... I want somewhere for july 29th if anyone spots anything. We are going to the london eye, but anywhere near a tube station will be great.

Could anyone suggest which london travelodge is best location wise? We are planning to visit the theatre (on the strand) and madamew tussauds. My knowledge of the london layout is rubbish! Any help at all greatly appreciated!

Yes im thinking this, i can get 2 nights at Covent Graden for £136 or two nights in Waterloo for £96. Just thought one maybe more central? Im guessing DCovent garden is the more central due to price.

Anyone know if they drop any prices later on in the day? Or should i book at these prices? As i said, not looking for an amazing deal, and im probably too late for that now anyway!

There is a chance that more will be come available...tbh...£19 is expensive for me.....so maybe I'm not the one to answer that....

People have been reporting £10 for Covent Garden, but obviously all gone, or not your date

yes, they are all expensive to me! But i was booking one anyway (its my birthday present!) so regardless of £10/£100 im still having it! But i do like a bargain if it comes my way, so was excited at this sale i came accross!

Ill be really annoyed if i book it now at £70 a night and then it drops to £30 or something!

I dont understand how people can moan and blame Travelodge soo much for there website becoming jammed and not loading.

I know its very frustrating but after all you are getting a bargain.

If you think about it, Travelodges website works absolutly fine and easily copes with demand for every day of the year minus about 4/5 (sale days). So why should they pay out extra money (server space etc) which will be used for 4/5 days per year?

Anyway it seems to be working ok now, I can still see quite a lot of £10 rooms too. There are quite a lot in and around Liverpool for end of July and August.

There are also quite a few still for London

Seems to be working ok now, i have just booked 3 different stays with 3 rooms each time, for a little over £100, a fantastic result and well worth the perseverance. Thanks

I agree with this to a certain extent but at the same time... it's sooooooo annoying!

And I can blame Travelodge for all the random glitches that seem to be in their system... as other people have said booking multiple rooms gives you all the rooms at the most expensive price and not a mixture of cheaper and more expensive rates (just like the infuriating train people). That's not good.

And when I was adding them in to my basket one at a time things were disappearing, reappearing. Something shows in the basket as £10 'cause you've taken off the cancellation thing... you add another room and then the first room changes back to £11.50. Click amend, system crashes. Start again. Try and change to two adults (trying to add on the breakfast)... crashes.

After it crashes and you adding your second room the first one isn't there anymore so you add the second, add the first again and then start on the third only to find you have no day two and 2 day ones.

Redonkulous! I need a lie down... :-)


Started at 6am, finished at 2.50pm... have saved some money but lost a fair amount of sanity!
