Why Book with the Private Traveller?

The key thing is that you will great advice about where is best to stay, get the assurance of being backed by a travel agency a huge advisor network for help and advice, and the best bit is that you will get a whole array of VIP booking benefits which usually include:

  • Complimentary daily breakfast for two

  • A one-category upgrade on rooms and suites (subject to availability at check-in)

  • Early check-in and late check-out (subject to availability)

  • Hotel or resort credits (often $100) to be used on food, drinks, or spa treatments

  • Discounts off spa treatments or activities (e.g. The Savoy London 20% beauty & spa)

  • Special promotions like 3 nights for the price of 2, 4 nights for the price of 3 etc.

These benefits can really be meaningful. Having your breakfast included daily and sometimes an upgrade on your room and suite can be transformational. Getting money towards other meals or spa treatments is always a nice add-on too, and if you’re arriving at a hotel before the usual check-in time of 3pm, getting access to your room or suite early can be a great extra. Similarly, if you have a late flight, and don’t need to leave until after the usual check-out time of 11am, keeping your room or suite until later in the day can make for a much more relaxing end to your vacation.
