I found this as well Robbie. Saw the 15% got all excited, immediately checked and the hotel in Fuerteventura was more expensive this week with 15% than last week with 10%. Same dates, duration, no of people, room type, board etc Grrrhhh!
I know you book many DIY's, have you found any sites consistently cheaper over the years, or is it a case of checking them all?

Have a look at the link to book hotels on the easyjet site .they use hotelopia . I booked a hotel in Krakow as a birthday prezzie for my elder daughter and her boyfriend via hotelopia using the discount code, then a few weeks later I booked the same hotel for us for a couple of weeks later b ut did it via the easyjet link and it was cheaper ,( still the same price I had paid for daughter on hotelopias site using the code)although i had booked flights with them so not sure if that would give you a better discount but worth checking
http://www.hotelscomparison.com/ or something similar and take into consideration codes etc.
I can't see this doing Hotelopia any good at all as they will show up more expensive on comparison sites to anyone who doesn't have access to discount codes.
Thomson group have taken over Hotelopia and as we are aware when Thomson have a sale their price normally go up, strange tactic and no doubt a marketing gimic to try and fool people who are not regular visitors to their site.
But be sure this 15% code is only going to bring their prices back to normal, and some are actually more expensive - YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE AN EXTRA 5% DISCOUNT, DON'T BE FOOLED.

I have booked using this code and saved myself around £100 based on other sites prices. I think sometimes it does depend on specific hotels and is just a case of having a good old search to find the best deal!
One happy Hotelopia customer!
Remember to also go through Quidco for another 10% off.
The code still works but now looks like it only gives an 11% discount. I used it to price up some apartments I'm thinking of booking for our holiday in Gran Canaria. The discount was also rounded down to the nearest £GBP but despite the original price being slightly higher than that of a couple of other companies, it still worked out cheaper after the discount was applied so shouldn't complain. If Hotelopia also honour 10% quidco cashback even when a discount code is used with a booking, then it's an even better deal of course.
Arggghh!!
