What does the crossed out rate mean next to my room type?
In the event of a crossed-out rate, we look at the prices currently being charged by the hotel in the 30-day window around your proposed check-in date. From the prices within this window, we display the third-highest price on offer as the crossed-out rate. To ensure we are making a fair comparison, we always use the same booking conditions (meal plan, cancellation policy and room type). This means that you get the same room for a lower price compared to other check-in dates at the same time of year.
Can I use discount vouchers (e.g. issued by magazines, shops, etc.)?
You cannot use the vouchers when booking on our website. You will have to follow the procedures described by the organisation issuing the voucher.
