FAQs | Room rates

How are the room prices set?

Our room prices are set depending on the level of demand for hotels and stay dates. The higher the demand for a room, the higher the price is likely to be. In general, our lowest-priced rooms are available when booked well in advance and would not typically be available to book close to your stay date. This is why we always suggest that you book early to avoid disappointment. In some instances, including where demand decreases, our room prices may fall too. Additionally, we may occasionally offer promotions and discounts, which may result in a lower room price being offered.
