Let's look a little bit closer at how it actually works, using the Stage Hotel in Nottingham, England, as an example. The hotel is tasteful three-story building located in the center of town, a good spot to use as a home base for exploring Robin Hood country. Each room has color TV, phone, and a coffee maker. On the pricey side, for sure. But if you wind up staying longer, say seven nights, you'd actually only being paying for four.
Some hostels cost that much.
As mentioned, the longer you stay, the more you get for your money. Minotel started offering this promotion two years ago, and say they have no plans to cancel it in the future. The list of participating hotels changes from time to time, however, so just because you saw a choice property in Greece on the Web site one day does not mean that it will be there the next. As you might expect, it helps to plan in advance, especially in peak summer season.
