No! I'm not convinced - especially as availability for some nights has been around for ages (thought there was a limit of 5 rooms per night at special rate?)

Take screenshots!

No email confirmation for me either. I copied the confirmation numbers just in case though.

Just booked one night, 25-26 September.

Then, the deal got the better of me, and I booked another night, 24-25 September.

Even if I have to check out and check back in, at that price, it's well worth it. I'll call them and make sure that it's okay. If not, 29 GBP for the first night is not that bad.

I just called (see no reason as it's not a mistake rate) and they took my details and said someone would get back to me. They said that they had been very busy (mind you they answered the phone straight away)

We'll see!

I think that what you did is the only thing that isnīt aloud. I am prety sure they will send confirmation once the check no one has booked 2 or more nights in separate reservations. Although if you booked it with diferent names, that changes all. I decided to book many nights but in separte days as I will be flying from MAD to LON for 50 USD all in thanks to the great AA.com website and to BA and IB fares, as stated in the Mileage run part of FT.

No - he just took my name and number & date.

re. more than one night in a row - that could be per booking. Possibly argue that checking out and back in could be ok?

Sorry, I undrestood from the paragraph "Our L1 roomīs rate are only available for stays of 1 night, to book additional nights please select Standard Rate from above to book further nights", that the only restriction was not staying consecutive nights, but I might have misinterpretated this paragraph. But if one doesnīt book two nights in a row, I guess it might be OK. If not, we will riot. I will be staying there on the 2nd of september. So please, keep the room clean and new, as I want to be able to say I was one of the first guests of "The Hoxton", jejeje

Drat, I didn't see that in the rate rules! I hope they will honor at least 1 night at that rate. I don't mind paying 29 GBP for Sunday if I can get 1 GBP for Monday night (regular sale rate was 59 GBP)!

Just made booking for October with no problems. Yet to receive email.

Wish I could get this for November as I'll only need a London hotel once during september/october.
