How do I got hotels to reply and recommendations please?

My boyfriend and I are going to Prague for a week in early September.

I don%26#39;t know if anyone else has had this problem but I%26#39;ve contacted several hotels now via their own contact forms online and they just don%26#39;t respond. Several of them offer a discount for online booking, and I would like to take advantage, but I can%26#39;t if they don%26#39;t reply.

We want somewhere nice, in the centre of things and want to pay up to around £75 for a room per night. Can anyone recommend anywhere please?

Thanks

Beth

which hotels have you contacted. Are you sure you are contacting the hotels direct and not accomodation agencies? Most hotels which have online request forms sometimes take a day or so to respond

If a hotel has a webpage then regardless of the contact form there is usually some kind of email address somewhere. If it is not listed, in the case of a hotel with a webpage called www.hotelblah.cz you might be able to contact them direct by email at info@hotelblah.cz also try %26quot;booking%26quot; or %26quot;reservation%26quot; as well as info.

hi.

i had similar problems so i just booked a private apartment £150 for 7 days 5 -10 min walk to old square. apartment was secure clean cable tv. might be a another option to explore

Prahaman is generally correct but, never take the third party %26quot;booking made%26quot; as proof of booking. Always try and contact the accommodation directly to confirm if reservations have been made. Amazing the amount of bookings that have to be sorted out by the hotel on the day of arrival. Also, direct contact with the hotel will often get you a 10% discount straight away. Read some of the advice at www.livingprague.com/hotel.htm for an idea of what you will find here.

Hi I%26#39;ve been trying to e mai Hotel Mira for ages lol and no reply.

I contacted Active hotels through whom i booked and they contacted them

I would recommend Hotal Mira

For 4 of us, 6 nights we are paying 530 eurs (Just over £300) So thats £50 a night for 4 of us. This includes breakfast which apparently is toast cereal sausages etc etc.

I%26#39;ve just posted a review link for this hotel in another thread. Have a look and it gives you hotel reviews.

Looks really good. A small way from the centre but a transport card is meant to be cheap. i am going to put another thread up about that
