Can I book a theatre break Online?
Nothing simpler: hit the web, visit the theatre breaks booking site and quote your credit card!
First ,start off at the theatrebreaks.co.uk booking site – it’s as good as any, and better than some!
What Show?
- If you know what show you want, go straight to the Show drop down and find your show. If it is one of the top 30 in London it will be listed before the alphabetical list of all 150 odd shows!
- Alternatively you can select the choose by date radio button and then chose out of the shows that present themselves once you select your date.
- You will be sent to the show page where you select your date and how many tickets you want. The hotel box will fill automatically, so check you’ve got the right number of nights and the right number of rooms. You have to go to the theatre on the first night for the booking system to work. If you don’t want to do that call the office on 0800 633 8000
The next bit is fairly straight forward – select the hotel
What Hotel?
- You can have them presented in a variety of ways – closest to the theatre, price, popularity… you can even see a map with your theatre and all the hotels around it.
- Click on the Hotel name to be given lots more information about the hotel, its facilities, what it is like, what previous guests have thought.
- There is a little work to be done here…
- I suggest working out how far you are prepared to walk (and in London it is a true joy to walk if you are not in a hurry!) Click on one of the bells to see how far the hotel is away from your theatre.
- Of course you don’t have to walk, the underground black cabs, ubers and the iconic red buses are all there to help you get about this fabulous city… you could even hire a bike!
- You’ll get offered the most popular room choice but you can change that by clicking the More Room Options at your preferred hotel.
- Once you have your choice of room, click on the Select Seats Button
What Tickets?
Next, if there is a choice, you will be presented with our seating plan for that map. Each seat is colour coded according to its price. Have a look around. Although the expensive seats are at the front, on many performances you don’t have to move too far to save A LOT OF MONEY!!!
Click on your favourite seats and press Book.
Rail travel or Coach travel?
- You will now be asked how you want to come to London and whether you want coach tickets or train tickets. Both are offered at a discount so it might be worth while. Otherwise just say “No Thanks” and you will be sent to our check out where you tell us all about your contact details and pay. Like any other site!
- Any questions at this point just call 0800 633 8000
And that is it – you just have to pay!
Of course if you are online between 9am and 5pm and it is all getting a bit too much then just call them up on 0800 633 8000
You can either talk through the booking online or start again because however simple the web guys think they have made it, there is always an opportunity for us humans to get confused!
Happy Booking
