8 reasons why you should book direct with BLOC Hotels

We make no secret of the fact that it’s far better to book direct through our website or reservations line, rather than using sites such as Booking.com or Expedia.

Here are 8 reasons why; 

// Best price guarantee

We promise you will not find our rates cheaper elsewhere!  If you do, we will match the price or refund you the difference.  We call it our Price Promise!

// VIP Guest List

Book direct and you can join the BLOC VIP Guest List for FREE. Members are eligible to receive FREE upgrades where available*, FREE tea or coffee*, FREE Gatwick Premium Security (Gatwick hotel only)*. *Signup and full terms and conditions available here.

// Best views in the house

We automatically allocate direct bookings with the best views available.  Spend the evening watching planes move around Gatwick Airport, or watch the sunset over the Birmingham skyline.  

// Exclusive bed and breakfast packages

Arriving late, or early-morning start?  We've partnered with some great local cafes, bars and restaurants to offer guests who book direct access to exclusive BLOC discounts.  That's one less thing to worry about.

// Premium Security (fast-track) passes

Skip the queues at Gatwick Airport and enjoy up to 5 free Premium Security passes when choosing Valet Parking, exclusively for guests who book direct.

// Flexible rate cancellation policy of up to 2pm on the day of arrival

We understand plans can change, that's why we offer a no-questions-asked refund to guests who book direct, even if cancelled on the same day of your arrival! Note: this is for guests who have chosen our flexible rate.

// 24-hour personalised service

Guests who book direct receive around-the-clock customer care from our dedicated in-house UK team.  Perfect if you need to modify your booking, no matter what time-zone you're in.

// Exclusive access to our Standby Upgrade programme

Looking for the ultimate VIP experience?  Direct bookers get exclusive and automatic access to our Standby Upgrade list, offering you the chance to upgrade to our most luxurious rooms for just a fraction of the cost. (subject to availability)

Unlock the best BLOC Hotel experience and book direct today!

Welcome to the 20th issue of Bloc magazine, with a host of intriguing features to get you through the dark winter months.

We are really excited to have acquired another new site, in the heart of Glasgow. We look forward to delivering Bloc to this extremely vibrant part of the city, directly opposite the recently redeveloped Queen Street Station.

The winter issue of our magazine visits Cape Town - dubbed The Mother City, or the Mother of South Africa. It has incredible food and wine offerings as well as mountains and beaches all within easy reach.

We also explore a destination much further afield, with the Von Braun space station and hotel moving closer to reality.

There are the usual features; Meeting the Bloc team, our favourite shows to stream and the pick of Bloc's social media.

Don't forget to sign up to Bloc's VIP Guest List, which makes you eligible for free room upgrades, free coffee and be the first to hear about our blockbuster VIP competitions.

We hope that this magazine provides you with some insight and entertainment on your journey.
