who can tell some hotel booking websites
 
Hi,I'm from Japan, want to make a tour in UK this september.
However I've no experience about European online hotel booking, anyone can tell me some hotel booking websites?
By the way, I've seen a French friend uses www.viamichelin.fr to find hotels and routes, I wonder it is available in UK?

Yes, here it is:
www.viamichelin.com/

Here are a few hotel booking sites:
www.venere.com
www.bookings.org

I have had great success in the UK with www.smoothhound.co.uk for small inns and B&B's. Have a great trip. Deborah

Thank you guys for your information.
Keren, www.viamichelin.com is also french, anyway i' ve found its english version: www.viamichelin.co.uk

In your recommendation, I prefer viamichelin and expedia. viamichelin has a good visibility of location and price of hotels, expedia has a huge hotel source.
I hope it's secure to pay online...

Hi End,

If you click on your michelin link, you will find that it comes up in English.

do price compare between websites. amazingly you can find a 100% diference or MORE depending on where you get your booking from.
also try
www.gtahotels.com including breakfast and tax most times.
www.talonotel.com
www.bancotel.com

i have had good luck with them all.

I'll give an endorsement for smoothhound also.

Best wishes,

Rex
