| Quote: JerryChicken "This also explains to me why a certain hotel local to here has recently ordered its staff to refuse tips from customers with no corresponding uplift in wage rate to compensate, if the customer absolutely insists its to go to a nominated charity, if the employee accepts and doesn't declare it then its a disciplinary matter - the hotel can now declare to HMRC that it has no liability for estimated income tax payments on employee tips.'"
Not true. If a hotel worker is given a tip and the worker keeps it, then the hotel has to pay 0 tax. The company only has to ensure tax is paid if the tips go into a tronc and then are distributed by the hotel.
The local hotel took this decision because workers were complaining that tip money was being used to cover the cost of breakages.

| Quote: JerryChicken "I once started a TA review of a Travel Lodge in Birmingham with "I must have stayed at a different place to everyone who has already reviewed this place" because I found it perfectly acceptable in line with the Travel Lodge business model.
All of the reviews that preceded mine were having a right old go at it and rating it one star, in a perverse way I was looking forward to staying there just to see how bad it was, but it was fine, as a Travel Lodge it was exactly what it said on the tin.
Strange enough, every review that followed mine then said "Yeah I thought it was ok too..."'"
I never understand why people bitch and moan about TL's ... they serve a purpose, especially for short stays, usually at a very competitive price. If people want 4 or 5 star then pay for it but don't expect it with TL.

Anyone bitching about Travel Lodge has obviously never stayed at a Formule 1

Yup, if you plan nicely you can get a decent stay at good prices, the breakfast box is to be avoided but at the prices they charge you can't go wrong. Mind if I was staying more than the odd night I'd go for Innkeepers or Premier Inn.

Never tried the breakfast box, it doesn't look that appetising. Some TL's do have the buffet breakfast bars (Bolton and Meadowhall immediately spring to mind) and in keeping with the brand are reasonable enough.
I concur reference looking elsewhere for a little longer ... Premier is normally my next option.
