Travelodge deals are a myth!

The_stingemeister

Recent newspaper publicity showed a retired couple living in a Travelodge at a Supersaver rate of £15 per night. Now, unlike them, I don't wish to permanently live in one but I was looking at a 4/5 night stay in one. However, while attempting to book one online all that was available was either NOTHING UNTIL AT LEAST MARCH 2008:eek: or an odd 1 or 2 night stay.
This non-exisdent "deal" is on offer as long as you book at least 21 days ahead. I typed in locations all over the country but there were none available:mad: . Anyone had any success here, apart from an odd Sunday night in 3 months time:rolleyes: :rolleyes: .

There isn't much availability. Manchester to me seems the best but parking is not free. You can combine your stay with some £26 per night rooms but then you'll probably want to stay away on a Saturday night which you'll need to pay top whack for...

We had a fabulous trip around England and Scotland in May and all of the Travelodges that we stayed at were £15. I wouldn't call the deal a myth, it was great!

I have totally agree we travelled round England this summer and every night at the travel lodge was £15.

The nights are there you just have to look hard for them.

We stayed at the Covent Garden for 3 nights in August for £26 per night instead of the usual £95!

Def not a myth.

I have had a week away this year at £15 a night

I had a few £10 stays from a couple of years back and a few more £15 ones more recently.

The stuff that HappyMJ has posted above is a special £15 Flexible Rate limited offer. The £15 Supersaver deals (non-cancellable, non-refundable) have much more availability - you just need to keep a look out.

I got 3 nights together for a fiver a while back. I agree though, the deal seems to be tailing off. It's now three times the cost and there's much less availability.

According to the newspaper The Davidsons don't pay £15 every night, I think a £8000 a year figure was quoted so on average about £22 a night. As they are residents they probably can get in the minute the offer rates are available.

I'm looking for a weekday stay of 4 nights (Mon-Fri morning).
Cheked Travelodge site again: no supersaver rooms at all for Tues & Wednesdays for at least the next 3 months. Theres a few Mondays available and you may get a Thursday if you're prepared to move to another location.
So, myth upheld I would think.

I stayed at the Basingstoke travel lodge 2 nights, £15 per night.
