A Rip Off it Seems

Some friends of mine recently stayed at the Holme House in Penarth. They booked the trip on last minute, and were, quite naturally, looking forward to a relaxing break away in this so called 5 star hotel.

However, when they got there, they were told they couldn't use the gym or the spa or the pool without paying fifteen pounds for the privilege.

When they asked why, they were told it was because they had booked through a third party website, and as such, this didn't include the use of the gym etc. Despite showing the hotel manager the Lastminute booking, which said nothing about having to pay to use the facilities, they still weren't allowed to use anything.

What a con
