Anyone in the trade how any tricks... e.g last minute, direct booking etc ..please share.. " If you find a way of finding good prices of hotels please let me know I wouldn't mind booking for Saturday somewhere for some good fun | |||

"Northern Ireland is by far cheaper than anywhere else " Yes travelling to Belfast over mid term. Definitely better value overall. But a long trek for a poor Kerry gal. | |||

"What about B&Bs? Anyone tried them? Are they more fussy about guests coming and going, literally? Would you want shenanigans going on in one of your bedrooms at home as a BnB owner " I rang 10 guest houses..and all booked..honestly some were absolutely crap...and their attitudes... like why bother them.. I assume accommodation is being tied up with college students but in my naive way l thought the weekend would be OK.. btw not a saucy weekend just an girlie weekend..so owners needed not worry... l can see why a camper van is a good choice... | |||

"Northern Ireland is by far cheaper than anywhere else " I thought NI has got very dear! I did get a great room last Fri night for £70. And apartment over a garage with contactless entry via a code at the side of a private house. Wasn't sure how private it would be be. We were sneaking a third in for shenanigans. It was great actually we just left his car down the road and he walked to it after. The apartment was totally separate from the main house and the big room had a convenient sofa for being railed over, and a kitchen for snacks and drinks. As well as the normal double bed. Normally I'm paying double that for a room. | |||

"Interested to know too I was told that to phone the hotels direct is best. I use booking.com and seem to get a bit of a discount but maybe i should ring direct. Even midweek hotels I used in April and May are 20- 30 more now. Maybe October will be cheaper? " Hmmm. Booking.com Hmmm Used them to book a room for an event a year in advance. €800. Four nights. Without breakfast. The event is important to me, so I booked. Check two weeks ago, down to €360. Without breakfast. A previously unavailable hotel, €320. Checked that hotel's website, €280. Deal sites are handy, but checking with the hotel themselves can prove useful. As it did here. Extra €500 for beer  | |||

Deal sites are handy, but checking with the hotel themselves can prove useful. As it did here. Extra €500 for beer "I've been caught put a couple of times with cancellation policies. I used to use Booking.com because they had a great cancellation policy. As long as you cancelled up to a day or two before that was fine. Then I blindly thought that was the case with all their rooms. Leading up to Pride I had issues finding accommodation in the right area of Belfast. I booked one in Lisburn called the Overdale Motel. Then another came available in Belfast that we took instead. Turns out Overdale Motel has a 100% fee for cancellations. Just had to pay it. Another one I felt changed the goal posts on me. What I thought was a couple of days was 10 days and I missed it. It was the night of the Belfast Riots. Had to pay double and do a lot of talking to get it moved to February. They wouldn't let me cancel and they wouldn't give me another single night so I had to book 2 nights. Airbnb doesn't always have a 9am check in. In fact I've never found that. It's always been 3pm but I message separately and ask for a 2pm and sometimes it's granted. Airbnb is also often now looking for part payment in advance. We've booked Wexford and have had to pay half up front and the trip isn't until late Oct. Sometimes I wait until the day before our trip. Then look through Hotels.com and Booking.com and Airbnb. Book for the location rather than how nice it is. Unfortunately our nights away are mostly weekend nights. | |||
