Village Hotels Last Minute Escape – UK hotels starting from £29

Village Hotels is a UK hotel chain that specialised in hotels in the, hmm, villages and suburbs. Although usually not ideal for a city break, they are good value for a family / weekend getaway, especially as they run very frequent promotions.

Now through the end of this year, they’ve launched a new rate plan called Last Minute Escape:

• Valid for stays within the next 7 days only
• Valid for Thursday – Sunday nights
• Rate starts from £29
• Non-refundable

You can view the offer here; note that (free) membership is required to proceed. Take Village Hotel Edinburgh for example:

Upcoming Thurs – Sun nights costs £59, £49, £59 and £49 respectively, which is quite cheap. You could also pay more for a better room or breakfast etc.

This offer remind me of Happy Monday, a similar promotion that Accor used to run in previous years, where you could have a hotel room in the UK (including London) for as low as £25. The good days are gone, but hopefully the hospitality sector’s recession will bring back more of these great deals!
