Advantages: Cheap and cheerful Disadvantages: Basic
...a Whitbread restaurant and fixed room rates – but due to the additional costs incurred in central locations, the prices are slightly higher. According to the specific location, Travel Inn Metros cost between £46.95 and £54.95 per night. The standard of fixtures and fittings in Travel Inn Metros is normally slightly higher than those of a normal Travel Inn. Some Travel Inn Metros are old Travel Inns that have been refitted to a slightly higher standard. Travel Inn Metros suit travellers arriving by train.
Travel Inn Capital comprises five additional Travel Inns, all located in the centre of London. Where real estate and costs are so much higher, you would expect to pay more than elsewhere in the country, but the room rates still only range from £69.95 to £79.95 per room, per night. The newer Capital Inns tend to be well fitted, but the older ones...

Advantages: Wherever you go in the country you should expect the same standard of accomodation and facilities. Disadvantages: The quality of these can vary wildly!

...Over recent years, there has been an explosion in the number of new motel style hotels springing up around the country. Responding to a demand for lower price overnight accommodation, Whitbread Travel Inns are perhaps the best know chain, with over 250 motels now set up across the country. For £40.95 per night, you get a clean, modern double or family room, with your own bathroom and television. The hotels are normally situated adjacent to a family restaurant, so breakfast and evening meals are easily at hand - although not inclusive of the price.
