Booking.com is the best booking site (in our opinion) for finding great accommodation in Tipperary, other counties in Ireland and basically, the whole world!. And how do we know this? Because we’ve used them everywhere we’ve travelled.
For those who are always on the road or often busy, you can simply install the mobile app. This enables you to browse the site and make bookings from anywhere. You can also click through from there and find the exact location of the hotels on Google Maps.
Because we’ve used this site so many times, we now get cool discounts and perks in some of the hotels we book. For example, free welcome drinks, early check-ins, late check-outs and discounts of up to 10%. The good thing is that you too can get these rewards the more you use Booking.com.
But to ensure we get the best deal, regardless of our budget, we always check the price of our chosen hotel on Agoda. They have a really awesome site, with almost as much range as Booking.com. But with AgodaCash (their unique cashback service) properties sometimes come in cheaper on here.
This also means you can save up your cashback for future bookings. So, to make sure you get the best deal, check out your chosen hotel on both these sites through the links given below.
