Has anyone ever booked direct with the hotel and how did they go abt doing this?
Anyone recommend any hotels in stalis/ or spain depanding on flights etc and if so u got a number?
I've booked direct by emailing the hotel or, if they have a website then you can do so online.
does this work out much cheaper than using a agent?
Not always. It's always worth checking both and the agent can be cheaper than booking direct sometimes.
I wanted to book direct with a hotel and they wanted a deposit. They were part of a hotel chain, so I checked with the chain direct and telephoned them directly. I booked it over the phone and didn't have to pay until the day I was leaving. They did ask me to reserve the room with a credit card if I was going to arrive after 6.00pm on the first night.
I did because I wasn't sure about what time I would arrive at the hotel.
I did arrive before 6.00pm so my card wasn't charged at all, I paid cash before I left. It saved on credit card charges.

Sometimes it is cheaper with agents such as Wintersunshine Holidays although the hotel chains say that you can not book cheaper other than with them and offer a guarantee, although time consuming it is worthwile checking all possibilities.
