A new Travelodge tool lets you compare prices across dates and locations, making it far easier to spot genuinely cheap stays
If you're planning a getaway in the coming weeks or months, whether it be for a work trip, to visit family far away, or just for a change of scenery, there's a new way to secure a very cheap hotel room using a simple online tool.
A new "Best Price Finder" system has been launched by Travelodge, the value hotel specialists, which simplify the task of finding a cheap room on its website.
It publishes all of its room rates on a large grid, letting you compare locations and dates side by side.
This means that, rather than homing in on a specific location or date, you can look at the huge chart of prices, and use the online tool to find the cheapest hotel in any given area, and then you can align that with cheapest night to stay.
It's great if you're not too choosy about the exact location, or the date you want to stay, because it could save a small fortune by helping you spot seasonal variations and quickly identify bargain breaks.
For example, a night in a Travelodge in central Manchester could cost you £84 if you choose a central hotel on a mid-week day, but just one day later the price drops to £25. It's easy to spot these fluctuations.
And if you needed to stay on that more pricey day, there are hotels within a few miles, still in the centre of the city, that offer rooms for £31.
This means, in this example, that choosing a different hotel less than a mile away can save over £60, even though they're both booked on the same day.
