Are you using something like booking.com or trivago to search? If so, the hotels may not be booked out... Most hotels only allocate a small % of rooms to sites like these and it may just be that the allocation is sold out. Try contacting the hotels directly... Sometimes you'll even get a better deal!   |

So do I.. But I also know that when booking.com says a hotel is sold out, it just means the 5 or 10 rooms the hotel allocated to booking.com have sold out... They may actually have lots of rooms still available directly through the hotel, and if you're booking for tonight and they've plenty of unallocated rooms left to sell, you might even get your room that little bit cheaper |

So just priced room for tonight in athlone. The Sheraton is offering a twin room without breakfast for €499? Wtf!

Nothing special on in Athlone this week. If you have a car try Hodson Bay. Or feeling generous, try Wineport. Or the one at Kilmartin roundabout, €55 a night, loads of rooms. |
