Which? Investigates podcast: Will you fall victim to package holiday roulette?

What happens when the accommodation you actually booked isn’t where you end up staying?

For many of us, choosing where to stay is one of the most important decisions we make when booking a package holiday. So, after hours spent excitedly scrolling through images of your plush hotel and pool, imagine the disappointment you'd feel if you're told you won't actually be staying there.

In this Which? Investigation, we’ll hear from some travellers whose holidays turned into a living nightmare after their travel agent changed their accommodation at the eleventh hour. 

We look at why the hotel you book might not be the one you end up staying in and what holiday companies are supposed to do to ensure you still get the holiday you paid for.

You can find out more about the research we've used and read more about this topic in this episode's show notes.
