Last month I booked 2 rooms in the Excalibur hotel for our June visit - I booked directly with the hotel using a 30 advanced booking deal which means you have to book at least 30 days before arrival and pay in full. There is also no refunds or cancellation refunds. Obviously we were happy with the cost at the time of booking as it was better than anything I could get anywhere else.
I was looking at the same deal yesterday, I know it was a stupid thing to do as I would tell everyone else!! Anyway, you've guessed the rooms were $75 cheaper now. :angry:
I wasn't holding out much hope but I e-mailed the Excalibur and told them that I was disappointed that having booked the rooms a month ago, on a special offer, the price was now considerably cheaper and could they explain why that was.
Anyway, in all fairness to the hotel, they e-mailed me back and reminded me that the rooms were booked using a no refund deal BUT I could charge goods/meals to each room to the value of the difference.
RESULT!! :)
