LONDON, February 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Families can enjoy the perfect half-term break this February - without having to break the bank. With the Christmas festivities only just over, Travelodge is offering a helping hand to parents across the country with 9,000 rooms available for a recession-busting £19 a night.
Unlike other companies, Travelodge's hotels are set on a room price, not by the number of people who stay in the room, which means a luxurious family room is big enough to sleep two adults and two children in comfort. The price works out at £4.75 per person, which means everyone gets a good night's sleep for less than the cost of a portion of fish and chips!
But with so many fantastic February half term activities on offer, why not try the northern delights of Manchester. Home of two of the biggest football teams in the world, this city is on top of its game with plenty to keep the kids occupied all week. And with accommodation in one of Travelodge's spacious Manchester hotels for only £19, you'll have plenty of change to spend on the best of Manchester's wide-ranging attractions!
If you're looking to make even more savings, all dishes on our children's menu are £3.95 and include spaghetti meatballs and cheeseburgers and chips, which leaves more money in your pocket for ice creams and treats when you are out and about.
There are a number of great family days out in Manchester. To save you time, here are Travelodge's two best day trips to delight the whole family this half term:
