Six and a half million people stayed with them last year, room prices start from £19 per night, the chain employs 5,500 staff, and is owned by Dubai International Capital. Travelodge is thinking ahead. They plan to be the biggest hotel operator in London by the Olympics in 2012. If you have never tried Travelodge, you may be in for a nice surprise.

Please be aware that the insurance which goes with the cancellation policy of a travelodge booking isn't worth the paper it is written on. Underwritten by Atlas insurance there are only a few conditions allowed for you to cancel and you require supporting evidence of a doctor's letter or garage itemised bill. It was my hard-earned money which went into the boking fee and I feel that it is a rip off to not receive any recompense when I had to cancel within 24 hours. You aren't told until the last page of clicking for a cancellation that you will get no refund from Travelodge either - which is a bit naughty. Is this the only industry stiill left unregulated where they can just steal your money?
DON'T BOTHER WITH ATLAS INSURANCE! It's not worth anything!

As a family of four who travel around the country a lot to various sporting competitions so we always have to look for budget accommodation staying when we can in either Youth Hostels or budget hotels, we have found that Travelodge while being very basic, offer good value for money especially if you can catch one of their sales and book in advance whereby getting rooms for £10 a night - not bad for 4 people! Travelodge offers budget hotel rooms in over 389 hotels across the UK, Ireland and Spain and is currently the fastest growing budget hotel chain in the country. It has over 20 new hotel openings planned in 2009 in locations including: Birmingham, ... Read the complete review

Recently had the joys of staying at a Travlodge following a visit to my wifes family down south (Dudley)...well I say joys. The entire reason for my booking with Travelodge was that it was cheaper than any other hotel to stay at and on arrival the staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself was ok for it's look and comfort but lacked cleanliness in comparison to other hotels I have stayed in. The television channels on offer were basic and the room had few facilities on offer. The bathroom had towels and a small sign on the mirror to say if we wanted shower gel, shampoo or soap to go to reception (no calling from your room ... Read the complete review

I had booked a room for 25th staying until 26th, When i got there, there was an issue where the room apparently was booked for 23rd. The staff had the attitude where they couldn't have cared less despite me having evidence and despite the fact i hadn't checked in on 23rd but was standing there on 25th!!! They then proceeded to give a brand new room to a customer because 1 wall socket wasn't working out of 6 wall sockets, right in front of me, The receptionist at this point treated me as if i was not there. They told me it was tough luck and i ended up having to pay £100 at another hotel, I had already paid £51 for my room, £50 for my ... Read the complete review
