    Is this deal only per person sharing or would it apply to someone staying on their own

    Just done a mock booking - 50% off rate is per room ( max 2 adults sharing ). Alos states that breakfast also warrants a 50% reduction. Pretty good deal it seems, if you are looking to get away.

    Do they take full amount from your card at time of booking?Bit broke now but I'd book it if I didnt have to pay until check out.

    I don't they do. I booked on a previous offer with Carlton and they have not taken anything from my card and also the reservation can be cancelled free of charge either 24 or 48 hours before checkin.

    Cancelation policy as on booking page


    INTERNET SAVER & ROOM SALE CANCELLATIONS WILL INCURR A 100% CHARGE AS STATED IN THE OFFER DETAILS


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 529 ✭✭✭Elliee


    Also I just tried to book 1 room for 1 night at 49 euro. Deposit taken now is 1.47
    The rest will be charged upon check out.

    Hope this helps :)

    Or if a no show or cancel then obviously as previously stated 100% charge will be incurred.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,413 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Good value.. is that €3 non-refundable booking fee for credit / laser cards normal? Don't remember being charged that when staying at Bewleys or The Radisson.

    Going to Lisbon in November so I'll need a hotel stay the night I come back.

    Anyone know breakfast times as I'll probably have to leave for the airport (to catch a flight home) about 6.30am.

    That must be for web bookings. I had to book mine over the phone as I wanted to include the kids b&b too. I just checked my confirmation and no deposit was taken and I can cancel too. So phoning in your reservation might be an option if yoiu were in any way doubtful.

    Basq, I don't recall the buffet being open in any Carlton I've been in at that time. I assume its the airport one you are looking at. Probably worth calling them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 529 ✭✭✭Elliee


    bazwaldo, how much did they charge you to add on kids B&B?
    Dont know if the grandparents are available the weekend im thinking of going! :D

    Yep, tis indeed.

    Ah.. don't mind if I don't get the breakfast. It's still cheaper than staying at Bewley's (my normal haunt) and it's closer too it's about the same distance too! :D

    Staying in a family apartment for 2 weekday nights for 2 adults and 3 kids of chargable age was €148. Its either under 3 or under 4 go free. I don't know if the family apartments are included is the apprentice offer but for any of those with more than one kid, they are great.

    Thanks for that mmcn90.

    Bewley's for the same night is 1c more (and that's excluding one of those always-accessible 10% voucher codes from Hotels.com) and since breakfast probably won't be viable, I might end up going with the ol' reliable.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,332 ✭✭✭Mr Simpson


    No problem Basquille , have a good trip!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,710 ✭✭✭RoadKillTs

    That means they are sold out for those dates. There was probably a limit to number of rooms per night for this offer. Try a different month and see if you can get a price.
