Not sure if this is the right place for this, but the Orlando Nickelodeon Holiday Inn is on the Travelzoo list for this week.
http://hotels.travelzoo.com/orlando-hotels/251148
1-bedroom suite, $258 for 3 nights.
2-bedroom suite, $298 for 3 nights.
Valid Aug 13-Sept 30.
I just booked it for Sept 21-24. Torn between this and a MVCI 2-bdrm suite for $161/nt. I know the MVCI is nicer and farther away from amusement parks (which is better for us), but $99/nt. for a 2-bdrm unit is pretty darn cheap.

So you see, it is not always about fetching points!

SOrry but its a bit of a kick in the teeth you constantly promoting your website in this thread. Please give it a rest or post in a new thread.

Utterly confused
Cheers people
While not new to Flyer talk I am fairly novice in this hotel forum.
I am Ambassador level , live in Sydney and travelling to Arabian Gulf for work for 4 weeks visiting most GCC cities. Where can I get the best deals on room rates?
I have seen great rates on Asiarooms but have also heard horror stories?
Want best rate of course ..never seem to be any promotions at Middle Eastern IC's?? I will be in Cairo, Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, Doha and Kuwait(thinking of Holiday Inn downtown here as no IC hotel in KWT)
Any tips/ advice or experienced tarvellers to the region?
Many thanks
CJ

I stayed at HI KWI-Dasman. It was fine, good breakfast buffet, free internet hook up in the rooms, good gym and pool, free airport transfers. We also stayed at IC Pyramids Park, nice hotel, awkward location if you don't know how to get around Cairo well (which I do), but it's really cheap-$42 a night! Don't use hotel taxis, they are 3-4 times the cost of ones on the street!

But if there's a significant saving to be had using Asiarooms, I think it's worthwhile using them - just be aware you probably won't get points for your stays if you book through Asiarooms.

regarding your stay at the IC in Abu Dhabi, you might want to send them an email asking when they will be closing for their refurbishment.
I had a feeling it was very soon. A number of long term guests that I know who live there have moved across to the Hilton recently.
Cheers

As I had to make a booking, I thought I would have a look for you. The Abu Dhabi Intercontinental will be closed from April to November for the refurb.

Thanks B
I am trying to stick to IC hotels..lets see how we go. AUH certainly needed an upgrade...it Muscat and Riyadh leave alot to be desired, even Doha IC is bland....best IC in the region is IC Phoenicia in Beirut..the buffet there is to die for and the rooms very plush, even standard rooms. The Vendome IC down the road is more exclusive and just as classy.
Maybe I should join another hotel group loyalty program- any other grps have hotels in all cities worth joining?
Thanks to everyone for their advice
CJ
