Luxurious weekend breaks can be a lot cheaper than you'd imagine if you plan your trip around when the travel companies need your booking. Most good quality business class hotels can fill their rooms from Monday to Friday all year with no real problems but come the weekend it's a different story.
The most difficult nights of the week for hotels to fill their rooms are Saturday and Sunday night. Combine this with the fact that car rental companies struggle to sell their fleet on a weekend too, and you could be on to a winner.
The best hotels to get great deals on weekend nights are business class hotels as they're more likely to be empty at the weekend (as all their marketing efforts go on business customers) and they're also generally very nice places to stay.
The other great advantage to booking a good quality business class hotel is that they have a great range of facilities and services to meet the demanding needs of their usual business customers. With facilities like gyms, swimming pools, saunas and steam rooms often being "all part of the service" rather than expensive extras, you could be in for a treat.
And don't forget the hearty breakfast. In good quality business class hotels you won't find them skimping on the spread at breakfast so get tucked in and enjoy a start to the day that should save a little on lunch too!
To find the best deals on these hotels scout around on the internet for business hotels in your preferred destination then see what kind of deals they're offering on weekend stays. You'll often come across 2 for 1 night deals on a weekend, free children deals and similar offers.
If you want to hire a car too, now's the perfect time to pick up a healthy discount on that too, as all the rental companies have weekend discount offers running virtually all the time.
So, follow this simple advice and you should find that it's possible to have a pretty luxurious weekend break cheaper than booking a cheap weekend break package from somewhere else.
