Accor Tempting Us With Three-Day Sale in Oz, Kiwiland and Asia

Accor Hotels in the Asia Pacific are getting ready for a three-day sale--they say there'll be a million rooms in 250 hotels up for grabs at rates discounted by more than 75%. The sale runs from February 24 to 26 and is for stays between April and July.

This region includes Australia, New Zealand and Asia, and includes a bunch of hotel chains that are all branded to Accor: Novotel, Mercure, Ibis and All Seasons are among them.

Right now at the super sale website all you can see is a tantalizing "Coming soon", but we'll be there early on February 24. We're after an Adelaide hotel room in May and we'll let you know what kind of bargain we snag.

Hotel Opening: All Seasons Gold Orchid Bangkok

Where: 375 Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, Phayathai, Bangkok, Thailand, 10400

The French Hotel chain Accor, which seems to have more brand names than a model's closet, is opening a new 3-star All Seasons outlet in Thailand. The All Seasons Gold Orchid Bangkok is taking room reservations for a week from Saturday on, so this touted opening looks to be real.

Like most Bangkok hotels, this one is a good value, with standard rooms listing for around $50 and junior suites going for $85. This is despite this year's tumble of the U.S. dollar against the Thai baht.

You've got to love the spin on this description from another booking site though: "Strategically located 45 minutes from Suvarnabhumi Airport and 15 minutes from the city...Adjacent to Vibhavadi Rangsit Expressway." So if your strategy is to be far away from everything except traffic, this is your place!
