finding hotel accommodation for a family of five

[kiwibella]

how do you find reasonably priced accommodation for a family of 5? The teens would absolutely love to have their own room if we had to book two rooms but I would prefer to avoid that extra expense. Any tips????

where are you looking kiwibella? Home or abroad?

UK - Alton / Stoke / Machester / Liverpool area. Will consider anything at this stage!

there is a website called take 5 but i think the accom is aimed at families with younger preteen kids. once over 12 most places stop counting them as a child hope this helps

Have you looked at Youth Hostels? They are much cheaper than hotels, but you can often get private rooms with en-suites, especially in cities.

thank you both. I will check out your suggestions. We do get YHA membership with out Friends and Family Railcard!
