Survey prize Thon hotel.
Anyone else get a message saying they won a prize from the spats survey for Thon hotels? Although had been listed as meal for two in prize info. That's not what they are saying I won. They told me it's a 'romantic' night for two deal. Not at all sure staying on avenue Louise is useful to me. Regardless of how romantic or otherwise it is supposed to be. I'm Just wondering if it's really a prize or a scam by Thon to get people to pay for meals In low season.
Not wanting to sound ungrateful, nice to win anything. Just wondering if it's a real prize or not.
Why don't you write to Thon hotel HQ and ask?
The price listed is "10 romantic dinner vouchers (value €209 each) at the Thon Hotel".
With a value like that I'm guessing that the romantic dinner also includes a night at the hotel. After all, if you don't have to drive home after dinner, or take the metro, or a taxi or whatever, but can directly move to your hotel room, it can't harm your changes for some romance.
If you don't want it just sell if for 50 euros, I'm sure you will find a taker.
Ah, then it was most likely just a mistake in the phrasing when the list of prices was compiled. It sounds very much like this package: http://www.thonhotels.com/offers/vacation/romantic-escape-in-brussels/
Even the price is exactly the same (209 euros).
The offer includes:
1 night stay in one of our deluxe rooms
Buffet breakfast for 2
1/2 bottle of Champagne
Bed covered with rose petals
Massage oil
Strawberry or macaroons
Chocolate box
Free access to fitness centre and sauna
Late check out at 4 PM
Free parking
Does not sound too shabby but from your circumstances sounds like it's not too useful a price for you.
Best bet would be to check if it could be transferred to someone else. I'm sure you would find plenty of takers.
Hi, indeed, the company that administered the survey made a mistake with the word "dinner", it's really an overnight stay. You should have received an email from The Bulletin on 4 September with the correct information.
If you did not receive that email or have further questions, please feel free to contact us using this form: http://www.xpats.com/contact
Alternatively, you could contact the hotel and try to alter your prize to a dinner for two instead.
