Moderators etmuse Posted January 25, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2010 Usually they only release a small number of rooms at first on a code, and SM need to call them up and get another block of rooms added to it later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erin_sumara Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 This has actually been bugging me for ages now, can't afford to book yet I just want a rough price for a double room+ breakie...... although wierdly when I last searched (before the code was released) if I tried to book for saturday to monday the rates were reduced and breakfast was included but with the friday to monday it wasn't - bizzzzzaaaarrreee! here's hoping there's still rooms left when i finally get round to booking!! xD also tar Erin for your wisdom hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators etmuse Posted January 25, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2010 When Hub 3 was there you could stay Friday-Monday under the code (we did). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 and its pay when we get there or pay upfront? sorry for all the questions lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted January 25, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2010 Pay when you get there, for the Hilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elaine 123 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have just had a look at it and the con rate is coming up at 76.38. Is this right because the roadhouse website is saying different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Who Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 (edited) Has anyone managed to book a room for the Hilton at the convention rate yet? I've only just seen that the code is up on the website today after someone mentioned it on this forum but have heard that others are having trouble booking. Personally, I think Showmasters might still be in negotiations as I'm sure that there would have been an announcement on this forum telling us when we could book a room. Still, I'm sure they're not all sold out yet as the Hilton is a very large hotel and Showmasters can add more rooms so none of us need to be worrying too much at this specific moment in time.

Miss Ragamuffin Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'm still having trouble booking it with the code on the website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted January 25, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2010 I think we probably need to wait for Showmasters to get the room allocation imcreased/sorted out before we'll be able to book on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 It's usually about 100 rooms released at first, then the number will be increased. With Roadhouse being as popular as it is, it is quite possible that the 100 rooms have all been sold already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vampiric_kitten Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) That sucks I really want to get the room booked asap!!! EDIT: Just called up and they have no idea why the code isn't working as it's the same one they have. Just bookedwhile I was on the phone but they said they didn't have any twin rooms left so had to take a queen deluxe.

Moderators etmuse Posted January 26, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 26, 2010 So could you book the other type of room on the code still when you booked on the phone? (ie was it the same price?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hils Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I'm a little disappointed to hear that all the twin rooms are gone before the code was even posted on the forum. I'm sharing with someone I don't know and I don't think we're quite at the bed sharing stage yet. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted January 26, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 26, 2010 The Hilton website has twin rooms available on those dates, but not the standard ones (and not under the code, obviously). I might phone up when I get home and see what I can get - hopefully there's still SOMETHING available on the code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Ragamuffin Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 wow I cant beleive all the rooms have already gone when it wasnt even announced on the forum I feel stupid for not looking on the website now. I hope they do realease some more twin rooms soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonsanddaffodils Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I havent rung up yet either I know I havent bought my tickets, but I am going to be there. Might ring up and see in a bit They should release more if SM havent even announced the code on the forum (assuming there are some left) I really like that hotel too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazliveshere Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I just called the Hilton and booked a single room. But they said the discounted room rate is only valid for the Friday and Saturday nights. Be aware that you will have to pay the full room rate for the Sunday night, if you're not leaving until Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Ragamuffin Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 oh really thats abit rubbish! hopefully showmasters will sort something out cuz normally its for all 3 nights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazliveshere Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I know, it sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurenx Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I've only booked for the two nights because I can't afford to pay a lot extra for the third night. Sucks really because that means I will have to check out at 12 on the Sunday, when the con will still be going. Hopefully I can check out, drop my stuff into the car and then go back to the con, would be gutted if I had to miss anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted January 26, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 26, 2010 I reckon I'll book now with a regular price room for the Sunday night and then if SM manage to get more Sunday night rooms added to the code, I'll phone the hotel up again and change the reservation - even if it means me spending a ridiculous amount of time on the phone.

Doctor Who Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Oh wow, I can't believe that the twin rooms have sold out, I'm sharing with my mum so one bed isn't really ideal. I really would have thought that it would have been announced here on this forum, we always got told not to reserve a room until we were told to book? We never were though, I hope some more twin rooms become available. Edited January 26, 2010 by Doctor Who Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Massive Events Posted January 26, 2010 Showmasters Admin Share Posted January 26, 2010 I will speak to The Hilton on this tomorrow. I have just tried but the person I need to talk to is not in. I will let you all know what the situation is as soon as I can tomorrow. Incidentally the hotel web booking code is now online and is GSUPE. It can be found on our website HERE as can the details for The Hilton itself! Thanks for your patience and I will get back to you on this tomorrow. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
