13. Can Groups avail of special promotional rates?
Please note that € 10.00 beds are special promotional rates and are only available on certain nights in our hostels and are also just limited to beds in different types of rooms and at limited supply per day. The special rate is also only applicable for on line sales. These reduced rate beds do not extend to group bookings as the special offer beds are only available in different beds in different rooms types – so for a group looking to book – they would not be together – they would be separated throughout the hostel. If you want to take a chance on line and try for cheaper prices for some beds you may have to split your booking into different rooms. We advise groups to contact us directly in order to get the best option available to them.
