Third Night Free @ UK & Europe Properties This Spring

Could have used this when I was in London last month given the exchange rate! And I could have used it this upcoming June too, but miss that timeframe as well. Drat!

Between now and 30th May 2011, book a Stay for Breakfast™ break and we'll give you the third night free when you stay two nights on the weekend at participating hotels and resorts across Europe. Promo code: C9E

Cheers.

It can be a really good deal.

The confirmed reservation shows the total price for the stay as 3 x the price per night, but shows the promotion as buy 2 get one free. I was worried that the total shown on the reservation would be charged, but confirmed at check-in that only 2/3rds of it (i.e., only two nights, as advertized) would be charged.

Until they get that fixed, I'd confirm with the desk at check-in that the third night will not in fact be charged. Helps prevent surprises.

Even the US hotel show the 3 days in the confirmation (recent Renn promo ) But they only charge for 2 at checkout.

Really nice promo... I just wish a few of these would be active throughout June when I am going to be on vacation.

I've used the Stay 3, get 1 Free before (think last year it was a Visa promo). The reservation usually shows the entire bill charge, but the check out is indeed 2/3s.

Cheers.

That's probably why they're not doing it then June-August are vacation months, so they're not worried about filling the rooms.

I talked to a GM recently who said he'd rather lower the room rate by 30% rather than do this promo because he wasn't sure how many people actually do 3-days weekends, whereas most will do 2.

But if anyone is going to be in the UK & Europe during the promo timeframe, this is a good deal IMO given the exchange rate.

Cheers.
