Need £150k? Find Travelodge a hotel site...
October 16, 2007
TW Blog is in the process of failing to buy a house, and £150,000 would be no end of help.
So good on Travelodge for offering big cash rewards to anyone who finds the company a new hotel site.
If the company builds on the land you suggest, you'll get £500 for every room in the finished property.
As well as being generous, this ticks some very modern boxes: inviting consumers into the decision-making process, using local knowledge and so forth.
Travelodge is very vocal about being the fastest-growing UK hotel company of its kind, and aims to build 500 new properties by 2020. So there's plenty of scope to cash in.
Perhaps if we knocked down part of TW Towers...
Shorter-term goals include 200 new hotels and a refit of existing properties in preparation for the 2012 Olympics.
