What is the difference between "Immediate" and "On Request" confirmation?

"Immediate" confirmation indicates that your request is available from
assigned rooms that we hold for octopustravel clients. If booked, these can
be confirmed in seconds. "On Request" confirmation is where we have no
pre-assigned rooms available that match your requirements and need to
request room(s) for you directly from the hotel. If you book a hotel showing
"On Request", we contact the hotel on your behalf and you will receive a
reply to your request within 48 hours.

How do I know if my hotel reservation is confirmed?

If you book a hotel that is showing "Immediate" confirmation, you will
receive a confirmation email within a few minutes. If you make an "On
Request" booking, assuming the hotel is able to accommodate your request,
you will receive a confirmation email from us within 48 hours. Confirmation
emails will include full booking details and confirm the price you have
paid. If an "On Request" booking cannot be confirmed by the hotel, we will
advise this to you by email within 48 hours.

Do I need to confirm my booking with the hotel directly?

No. The booking confirmation printed from the octopus site is all you need.
Please note that for hotels showing "Immediate" confirmation octopustravel
has rooms assigned for our clients and we only supply your name to the hotel 72 hours prior to your arrival; if you contact them before this they will
not have your details yet. For "On Request" bookings we forward your name to the hotel at the time of booking. In neither case do you need to contact the hotel yourself.

Do children receive discounted rates?
