500 London Hoxton Hotel rooms for a quid!

  • I would also like to thank blindman who posted the link to this website from betterbidding.com, which has great info to bid on hotel rooms on priceline and hotwire.

    I used the html link and roboform and got a £1 room for July 20th and a £29 room for July 19th. I did have to go back to the previous screen a few times, when the screen message saying it was too busy, came up. I also started 1 or 2 minutes late because I didn't understand the timer on the hoxton website. The html link and roboform made it fast and easy.

    I went to work at 4:30 am and had my manager cover the deliveries for me from 6:30 to 7:30 while I ran home (we have macs at work, so I was afraid the html link or roboform wouldn't work), and booked the rooms in about 7 minutes. I was back to work at 7:25 (work is 4 blocks from home). So, it works in Brooklyn too!

    Congrats to all that got the great deal and good luck to everyone the next time this offer comes up.

    I've made a bit of an error with my booking. Have booked 17th and 18th July (both £29 rooms) but have to be at home on the 18th so wondered if anybody wanted to swap the 18th (Friday) for the 16th??

    hey there,

    I'm kinda in the same boat as you...i managed to bag 2 nights(both were £30) on different dates, months etc....but only one of them has been taken fom my credit card...

    i did query the booking by calling and asking for the confirmation booking, which she sent for them both,,,,but till today the other £30 hasn't been taken out yet....oooo[ps
