Cool

The hotels rarely advertise, it's normally travel agent websites that show the hotels. Quite a few that I have seen have a link to an "updates" page and Phuket is not the only place that they advertise. I get the impression that you think it is quite easy to just go snap a few photos and update a few websites. Unfortunately it is not that simple and there is an awful lot of work involved plus extra cost at a time when the least want it.

I am sure they are doing there best in the circumstances and as for the not seeing any discounts, then try an alternative method. I have already said on other threads that at present money talks, so why not contact a hotel direct and ask for a quote, then ask "how much discount for cash ??" When times are hard, businesses like this rely heavily on keeping cashflows moving, so will surely welcome such an opportunity with a reasonable discount in return.

Cheers
