OdieUK Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 lastminute.comnote this is different to lastminutetravel.comRoyal Plaza on Scots.lastminute.com were doing a 10% off hotel bookings deal a few days ago. The advertised price for 4 nights 5 star Orchard Road area was GBP £486. allowing for 10% discount - then adding credit card fee the cost came to GBP £445. I was unable to use hotel id through easyclick etc (mentioned in forum) due to it being lastminute.com and not lastminutetravel.com however, did my research and came up with a shortlist of 3-4 hotels - by checking out the hotwire and priceline hotels in this grade. On completion of reservation was notified it was Royal Plaza on Scots. if i had booked this hotel as normal through lastminute.com the advertised price was £682 (£614 allowing for 10% discount)...so a saving of secret deal over knowing was a massive GBP £169!! having done further checks i could have got this hotel through other sites at GBP £560 - but the saving would have still been GBP £115. Excellent saving for a well rated hotel on tripadvisor. Link to comment
