BRISBANE – 9 February 2009: 80’s game show host Ian ‘Turps’ Turpie can’t resist the right price and so has teamed up with leading accommodation website Wotif.com to promote hundreds of hotel rooms slashed to half the price.  

Wotif.com’s Half Price Hotel Sale includes hundreds of hotels, apartments, hostels, cabins and B&Bs across the country which have cut their rate by half and made the deal available exclusively through the website.

Customers can book half price accommodation for a getaway between now and mid-May, including the Easter long weekend in April, as Wotif.com has just extended their booking period from 28 days to three months, making it easier to book in advance.

Megan Magill, Wotif.com General Manager Brand, said everyone loves a bargain, especially when it comes to taking a relaxing break.

“Deals on Wotif.com just got sweeter for the next four weeks with the Half Price Hotel Sale and there are also plenty of great inclusions on offer from a number of our accommodation providers, so people can really spoil themselves,” Magill said.

“Times may be getting tougher for people, but with accommodation prices this good, it’s well worth booking a weekend away just to get away from it all.

“With such a broad range of accommodation types slashing their prices, there is everything from five star resorts and self catered apartments to backpackers and quiet B&Bs up for grabs – so something to suit everyone and every budget. 

“And those who have just realised Valentine’s Day is just around the corner can also get a great half price deal for a romantic weekend.”
