About the Brand
Affordable UK hotel chain Travelodge was founded in 1985 and has grown to over 580 properties across the UK, Ireland and Spain. Based in Thame, Oxfordshire, the chain serves millions of guests each year with a simple promise: clean, comfortable rooms at genuinely low prices. Its bright blue branding is a familiar sight on motorways, in city centres, and near airports – a reliable budget option whether you’re travelling for work or a weekend away.
Rooms come in standard double, family and accessible configurations, with extras like unlimited breakfast and WiFi available at most locations. Pricing is split into two straightforward tiers. Saver rates are non-refundable but deliver the lowest available price, while Flexible rates let you amend or cancel for free up to 12pm on arrival day – handy when plans might change. In practice, we regularly spot Saver rates from under £30 in cities such as Cardiff and Cambridge, and airport hotels can dip below £35 per night.
Travelodge packs in several features that help you keep costs down before you even book.
- A Best Price Finder tool on the website compares room types, parking and breakfast preferences across your chosen dates in one view, so you don’t have to hunt manually.
- Travelodge Business membership gives 5% off Flexible rate bookings – a useful recurring saving if you travel for work.
- Blue Light Card holders and NHS staff can access periodic 5% discounts; these aren’t always live, but we flag them as soon as they appear.
- The free Travelodge app stores your bookings and occasionally surfaces app-only prices that aren’t visible on the desktop site.
- Newsletter sign-ups often unlock a one-off discount code or entry into regular prize draws for free stays.
Combine these built-in tools with the offer cards below and you’ll rarely pay the headline rate.
How to use
Shopping Guide
How can I find the absolute cheapest Travelodge room?
Start with the Best Price Finder to scan multiple dates at once – midweek and Sunday nights are almost always cheaper. Stick with Saver rates if your dates are firm; no code will beat that baseline. If you’ve got a newsletter or business discount code, it usually applies only to Flexible bookings, so compare the discounted Flexible price against the Saver rate to see which works out cheaper. We’ve occasionally seen a 5% off Flexible rate match or undercut a Saver rate on quiet nights.
Is the Travelodge app worth downloading?
Absolutely if you stay more than once. The app surfaces prices that sometimes don’t appear on the desktop site – we’ve spotted differences of a few pounds on city-centre properties. It also makes amending a Saver booking far less painful; the £12.50 change fee is the same, but the interface is quicker. Push notifications alert you to flash sales, which can be as brief as 24 hours.
How do I combine a room deal with a discount code for maximum savings?
Genuine stacking is rare. The automatic ‘Rooms from under £35’ offers don’t require a code, so they’re already the lowest rate. If you later get a newsletter code, check whether it works on a Flexible rate in the same location – sometimes the Flexible price minus 5% dips below the Saver rate. The best multi-save tactic we’ve found is to pair an already low room rate with a breakfast deal: book a cheap Saver room, then add the ‘Unlimited Breakfast from under £30’ offer as a separate bolt-on through the app.
When should I book to get the best price?
Our tracking shows that booking 3 to 4 weeks ahead typically lands the lowest Saver rates. However, if you’re flexible, the ‘Hot Deals’ page frequently drops last-minute rooms – we’ve seen Fridays and Saturdays in Manchester go for under £45 when booked on the Wednesday before. Black Friday and January sales bring additional flash discounts, so sign up for emails before those periods. The ‘Stay Now, Pay Later’ deal is handy for nailing down a low rate today without paying until nearer the date.
