Go-As-You-Please Open Voucher Plan

Britain, Ireland & France

Reserver Hotels InterlakenELSIEFROM ENGLAND is pleased to introduce the
GO-AS-YOU-PLEASE OPEN VOUCHER PLAN specially designed for those free spirits whodon’t want to be bound by an itinerary. 

Oneof the problems encountered when opting for flexibility is uncertainty:Not knowing from day to day where to find the appropriate accommodationsand more importantly, not knowing how much they will cost.This plan erases the uncertainty.

Howdoes this plan work?
Let's assume that you plan to be in Ireland for 10 nights. You would like tostay in Bed & Breakfasts for 8 nights and in a Hotel for 2 nights. You would purchase 8 Bed and Breakfast vouchers at $30 per personper night, and 2 Hotel vouchers at $50 per person per night. Total cost perperson for the 10 nights would come to $340 or $680 for two persons – anincredibly good deal for the summer season. Furthermore these rates include the traditional English or IrishBreakfast (large) and the VAT (approximately 17.5%). We could pre-bookyour first night’s accommodation, and after that you would call aheadto each place to book your required additional nights. 

Whatother charges would I have?
There would be very small supplements for single rooms, private baths, andupgraded accommodations, all payable in pounds locally and directly to theestablishments.

Howare the reservations handled?
Werecommend that you pre-book your first night so that you can proceed to youraccommodations without delay after your arrival. After that, you can call aheadto each establishment to make your booking. Elsie from England will be happy tobook your first reservation free of charge. Additional reservations can be madefor a fee of $17 per location.

Howmany choices will I have of places to stay?
In Britain, you will have a choice from 2,000 Bed & Breakfasts from thelargest cities to the smallest villages. In Ireland, there are 350 Bed &Breakfasts from which to select.  Additionally,there are over 1000 Hotels who also participate in the Hotel Voucher program. InFrance, there are over 500 Bed & Breakfasts and over 400 Hotels. 

Whatinformation will I have concerning these establishments?
