Room types on offer will vary from hotel to hotel.  The room types available can be seen on the Hotel Information page.  Back to Top

Our aim is to ensure that our prices are competitive with the published rates of hotels and our competitors. Back to Top

5. How do I amend or cancel my booking.

If you need to amend or cancel your booking you must contact us and not the hotel directly.  There is an amendment fee of £15 and you must be aware that any date changes will be subject to availability.  Any cancellations will be subject to our cancellation policy as set out in our terms and conditions. Back to Top

6. What is your cancellation policy.

Please see our terms and conditions for our full cancellation policy. Back to Top

7. Do you have any special offers.

All our rates are “special” as we have negotiated the best deals we can for the hotels we feature.  However, we do also get even more special “special offers” which we promote on the appropriate pages of our website!  Back to Top

8. Can I get access to more information on the hotel I’m staying in.

The hotel information page contains full details on the hotel itself, the facilities and location information.  If you need any further information, please call 0871 224 0040. Back to Top

9. What is your policy on children.

Policy on children varies from hotel to hotel, which is why we ask you to enter the ages of any children when you enter your details.  In most cases, a child under 12 can stay in a family room with 2 adults free of charge, although there will usually be an extra breakfast charge for them.  Children aged 12 and over are usually charged as adults. Back to Top

10. I’ve called the hotel and they say they are full but you have rooms available. How can that be.

Some of the hotels we advertise are only available at the rate shown on request.  In this instance, we will receive the details of your booking and then check with the hotel to see if the date you have requested is available.  We will always be back to you within 24 hours, if not much sooner and you are advised that this is the case in a message displayed to you on our website. Back to Top

11. What happens when I press book and how long will it take to confirm my booking.

If the hotel you have requested is available to book online, you will receive an email from us confirming the details of your booking.

If the accommodation is only available on request, you will be informed of this when you press “book” and we will confirm to you within 24 hours as to whether your booking has been confirmed. Back to Top

12. Why can I not find a particular hotel that was available yesterday.

The majority of hotels you will find on our website are available to book instantly in real-time.  If we operate this way with a particular hotel, once they no longer have availability, they will fail to show up in any search results.  We advise all our customers to book as early as possible, once you have found what you are looking for, to avoid disappointment. Back to Top

Payment Queries

13. Do I have to pay the whole amount at the time of booking.

Depending on our arrangement with the particular hotel you have chosen we will either take the full amount from the credit card that you have supplied at the time of booking or you will pay the hotel on departure.  Your booking confirmation will clearly state which method of payment applies.  In either event, you must supply your credit card details to hold the reservation.
