Holiday Inn Ј20.12 26/12-31/1

A question about : Holiday Inn Ј20.12 26/12-31/1

Holiday Inn are running their rooms for Ј20.12 again

Web-site open now but bookings can only be made on 20th Dec.

Only Holiday Inns and HEX's Limited rooms at each property from 26th Dec-31st Jan

No priority points will be earned.

Best bargains will be in London such as Holiday Inn Mayfair

Best answers:

• The website is open now but the bookings have to be done on 20 December.
• OP amended
• Update
  The Priorityclub website has a slightly different list of participating Hotels as this one includes some Crowne Plazas
  Bargain!
• Unbelievable.
  I just tried booking a room at 1 minute past midnight. Every link I clicked through for a hotel in January doesn't show me any rooms at the Ј20.12 rate. I called the number on the site and they told me that the rate hadn't gone live yet but to try again after midnight. I explained that it was after midnight and the operator told me that the local UK time is 23:17. I said 'how can it be 23:17 in the UK when I'm in the UK and it's 00:17?'. She replied, 'Maybe there's been a system glitch and you should try again in an hour!!'.
  So if you haven't succeeded in booking a Holiday Inn, it's probably because Holiday Inn's computers are in a different time zone!!
• Called the "EXPENSIVE" 0871 number at 7 minutes past - got through in 30 seconds (to some far away call centre in a foreign land) - asked to book Central London on the 2012 offer and was offered a room at Ј180 !!!
  No rooms at Ј20.12 showing as available.
  No rooms at Ј20.12 available - anywhere in the UK according to the call centre operator - guess I'll find one available on ebay later and hope I can get one for less that the hotel rack rate !!!
• I have just tried for the last 20 minutes on the website and deals are still not coming up
• So glad you rang them! Have been going mad trying different dates and hotels and thinking I was doing something wrong. Will now try again at 01.01 thanks to you. Cheers
• im furious!! ive stayed up this late to book a room as a suprse for my partner, and the prices havent changed, so i clicked on the online chat and a woman in manila told me its cuz its not 12 yet.... i was like erm im in england now, i assure you it is!!
  got to wait til 1 now...... fuming!
• the homepage even changed at midnight so obviously something to do with different time zones...
• It is a pain but at least we know we haven't missed them and probably a lot of people will have given up when they couldn't get the rate!
• If Holiday Inn Time is 1 hour behind GMT (current UK time) that puts them in the Azores !
  Strange place for corporate HQ and call centre !!
• im just sooooooo tired
• Whilst we wait, where is everyone hoping for?
  Me? Chester Crowne Plaza
• the lady on the online chat is in manila!
• ooooh well hopfully york or harrogate.... just wat somewhere nice and christmassy not far from derby/nottingham way.
  any other ideas incase i miss these??
• Norwich for me, may have a look at london too though if cheap, a weekend in London sounds good to me.
• Can we actually get the priority rewards ones? so much more choice lol
