What will my accommodation be like?
Your accommodation will be directly related to the standard or budget that you specify when submitting your itinerary to us. Generally we use hotels, B&B’s or guest houses but for schools groups or people who specify otherwise (self-catering for example) we use other accommodation providers such as hostels.
We offer 2 levels of accommodation as standard:
Comfort - Average 3*
Comfort level is our standard level of accommodation. It is suitable for families who wish to be comfortable without spending extravagant amounts of money on accommodation. Breakfast and Wi-fi is normally included and sports/health facilities are possible but not as standard.Luxury - 4 & 5*
Our Luxury level is for those who wish to travel in style, staying in some top hotels and travelling first class on trains. Our Luxury Hotels normally include top restaurants, health and sports facilities and of course all the ammenities you would expect from an English 4* Hotel.Backpacker Tours
Throughout the summer we run regular backpacker tours for those on a tight budget who simply require a bed for the night and some great people to share the experience with. On these tours the accommodation is basic - ususally a hostel or B&B. it will be clean, comfortable but without frills!Group Tours
If you have booked your group in to tour with us we do offer a third budget level of accommodation. This is usually hostels or B&B's though it's worth remembering that we have such good deals with some 3 and 4* hotels that these can sometimes work out cheaper than a hostel!Am I limited to the standard I choose?
No! The best thing about a Great British Trips package is that you're not limited to anything. You may be on a budget tour but that doesn't mean you might not want a single, special night in luxury accommodation. This can be included very easily, just let us know in the 'anything else' box on your itinerary page.So which hotel will I be staying at?
In each area of the UK you may wish to visit, we have partnered with an accommodation provider for each budget level. The hotels we use have been carefully handpicked based on their standard of accommodation, their service level, customer reviews, their green policy, their location and their price.After selecting the best possible hotel for our customers, we have negotiated the best available rates for you, ensuring that you will not find better overall accommodation for your budget in the area.
As our website grows, you will be able to see which accommodation providers we use in each area. If in the meantime you receive your quote and want to know exactly where you will be staying before you book, please just ask!
