Take away the middleman – Go direct

 

The fewer obstacles to hurdle, the better when booking accommodation.

Have a think of things that might get your goat in your business day.

Maybe it’s a broken printer, or the Wi-Fi playing up. But whatever has your back up at the office, few things are as frustrating as having to deal with a middleman. But remarkably still in this day and age, some hotels are available cheaper if you go direct – despite some websites telling you otherwise.

A Mail Online story revealed that a hotel in the French capital, Paris was available with more than 11% off the original price if booked direct with the venue.

And it’s not something that’s confined to the continent either – we’re just as susceptible to going through a third party website in the UK.

It's an issue that effects both countries

The Telegraph ran a report from their consumer affairs editor who used third party websites to scour for what he thought was a fantastic deal – only to find out later that the money saved was due to the accommodation being a hostel not a hotel.

So the advantages of booking direct aren’t simply financial. By booking direct not only will you know exactly what you are buying into, but if there are any questions you can find your answer and a price up front. So no nasty surprises like the one our journalist friend received on his travels either.

Speaking of surprises, it should come as no surprise to know that at Week2Week Serviced Apartments, when you book direct with us you’ll know exactly what you’ll be getting.

And even if you do find us on a third party website, there’ll be no unplanned charges.

Be it for days, weeks or years, with us you will know up front the price, location and information on your accommodation.

So next time you are in the north east of England and in need of a place, skip the hotels and their middlemen and book direct with Week2Week Serviced Apartments on 0191 281 3129 or over email at info@week2week.co.uk.
