Hi Smiffy
They are the only tour op with anything those dates so are pretty unbeatable - i presume you saw the Clarion and the Wyndham which are a bit cheaper - Id book it with Thomson, look for Cashback, and dont forget to do your ESTAs0 -
Thanks for looking I had a suspicion that might be the case as not much else come up unless I fly virgin and book everything separate which works out more.
Yes I saw the other hotels slightly cheaper but think the kids would prefer the water park one.
Cheers for the cash back tip I always forget I registered on quidco.
Will have to do esta again as I think they are just out of date now.0 -
I have already booked the flight, so looking for a decent hotel and found this one Barcelo Eresin Topkapi
Dates: 6/4/2016 to 14/4/2016
Quote for Delux Room with Breakfat : £663.18
Can anyone beat this quote please?
If not, I am just looking for a hotel with Pool in Istanbul in the range of £500
Thanks0 -
Hi DavidBeckham
Is this a room for 2? If so - Yes we can beat this
If so we can do you a double deluxe with Breakfast for £600 exactly - saving you over 10% - if you wanna get that hotel/room in budget just ditch the breakfast and its £500 or keep breakfast and do a Twin Budget room also £500
An alternative would be the Surmeli Istanbul - a double superior there with Breakfast is £545 but it may not be as well located as the Barcelo. It does have a pool thought
