    €10 Hotel rooms in Dublin being sold tomorrow morning at 10am.

    Got this the last time and ended up in the Clarion in Limerick city, fantastic hotel. Felt a bit guilty for only paying a tenner, especially when we ended up with free room service! :p

    Linky. Might want to use Internet Explorer as other browsers seems to send the site FUBAR.

    The sale starts at 10am tomorrow, when participating hotels will be shown.


    I got this offer a few months ago, it did as it said on the tin. Don't be fussy, take whatever dates you can get, they go in seconds, and enjoy.

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird

    /would ad to spam but too darn risky..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭onlinegamer


    any1 know how many nights allowed stay, just the one im gussing?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,278 ✭✭✭jArgHA


    I availed of this last time around and got a night in 4 star Clarion Cork for €10. The following morning I went to pay €8 for the overnight parking, gave the girl at the desk a tenner and she gave me back €42 which I accepted... I feel so guilty now :o I'll probably be trampled by an elephant at some point in karma retribution.


  • Registered Users Posts: 846 ✭✭✭tantipie


    they only have 4 hotels,,13€

    oh,,it 10€ when you go to book it tho


  • Registered Users Posts: 219 ✭✭rgunning


    Just four hotels in Dublin, the Royal Marine being the best of them. Not great.

    Also, hate to be a pedantic f*cker, but it says in the T&Cs 10:00 GMT. Which it won't be for another hour. We are in BST at the moment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 846 ✭✭✭tantipie


    i can book it now


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,843 ✭✭✭Jimdagym


    Didnt get one. Gone now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,252 ✭✭✭Africa

    there bad site is not doing anythingfor me and iv been trying since 10.00 am!

    it says the hotel available 2 night stay = 20€ and thats all it does! click continue and nothing happens!

    comon!


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,519 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    No joy here. Ridiculously slow as well.

    It also boots you back to a generic booking page rather than telling you that there are no rooms left. Very annoying.


  • Registered Users Posts: 184 ✭✭zdooldreb


    When I click continue it redirects me to another search page. Has been doing this since 10.00.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭Quackles


    Stupid offer :( Won't let me book for the kids, even if I was to just bring the newborn, for whom I'd be bringing my own travel cot. Oh to be young, free and single again...


  • Registered Users Posts: 28 Bodhi


    Same for me when it gets through it loads up another booking page for hotels in london

    did anyone manage to get a room at the weekend? fri or sat nights?
    every single one i tried it said it was not available,

    only rooms i could get were during the week but no interest in that.
    bit of a sham.

    In terms of PR, I think they have done more harm than good with this offer.

    Agreed

    If my search was unsucessful they could of least built in a page that said something like..... "we have nothing for this date - try again" Instead I was just brought onto a generic landing page for UK hotels?

    or better still, a page showing the dates that have availability, like on aerlingus for example.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭yom 1


    I think I tried every hotel on every date available and kept getting that the room was available, hit continue and then it would say not available or it would throw me to a generic page. Ridiculous offer

    What prats. Myself and the girlfriend have been trying to book a room for any day since 10am on seperate computers - not 1 was available.

    Poor show. They couldn't have sold out everything in the first minute unless there were only 4 rooms in each hotel!
