Kryyner Posted September 29, 2008 Report Posted September 29, 2008 I am going to stay at London from 10/4-7 and 10/14-18.I splitted the bid, and got the Holiday Inn Kensington Forum on 10/4-7 and 10/16-18 with $87 in the end. (Cant' remember the detail, sorry)It was, however, quite difficult to book a room for 10/14-16 with the same (or a little bid higher) price. I tried many many times and finally got Copthorne Tara at $115. Although I have to move on 10/16, I am happy to stay at different hotels. Besides, these two hotels looks not far away. It seems that on weekends you get a bigger chance to get a bargain. That's quite contrary to my experience. Does anyone know that if breakfast is inclusive at Holiday Inn and Copthorne Tara ?
Rhine-and-Roses Posted September 29, 2008 Report Posted September 29, 2008 I seriously doubt you will get breakfast included. The only way you get breakfast with Priceline is if it is normal for all guests to get breakfast as part of the room cost.My experience in European capital cities (and other large business centers) is that rooms are always much cheaper on the weekend.There are lots of places to have breakfast near both of those hotels.

mylesp Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Hi,Can you please tell me if breafast was included at the Holiday Inn Kensington forum in London as I too am staying there soon ... thanks. !
WillTravel Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 No, breakfast is not included. I stayed there a few years ago on a Priceline bid, but I'm confident that this has not changed.
