A HOLIDAYMAKER has revealed how he stayed at “the world’s cheapest five star hotel” for just £13 per night.
Costs for flights and accommodation are on the rise everywhere, making it more difficult to find a genuine bargain when booking travel.

However, Tiktoker and traveller Bobby (@livingbobbby_) claimed he found the most affordable luxury resort on the planet.
In a video he shared to his 237,000 followers, he showed off the Andamantra Resort and Villa, in Phuket, Thailand.
The hotel had a number of amazing features, including an infinity pool, a games room, a free spa, a waterslide and a jacuzzi on the balcony, among others.
Bobby claimed he paid little more than £13 for his stay, with a screen grab from an online booking agent as proof.
He said: “I stayed at the world’s cheapest five star hotel costing just $16 (£13.15) a night.
“When I got to the hotel, I was shocked to see that there was eight levels of different pools with a super cool waterslide and even an infinity pool.
“There was a delicious breakfast buffet included in the price, a free spa and even a games area.
“The rooms were like palaces with a jacuzzi on the balcony, a steam room in the bathroom and overall, a luxurious and spacious feel.”
The video has been seen by more than half-a-million people, with plenty planning a trip of their own.
One user wrote: “That’s 480 dollars for a month, cheaper than rent in Toronto for 1 week.”
Another said: “I’ve been to that hotel it’s amazing! You should go there!”
According to the resort’s listing on Booking.com, it has a spa, a fitness centre and three outdoor pools.

It is situated a 15-minute walk away from Patong Beach and a 15-minute drive to the Jungceylon Shopping Centre and Bangla Road.
Rooms come with a balcony, flat-screen satellite TV and electric kettle.
They also have a seating area and private bathrooms with a separate bathtub and shower.
Additionally, the resort has a sauna and steam bath facilities.
There are two dining outlets on site, including Saeng Dara which offers traditional Thai meals.
Meanwhile Asian and international food is served at the Blue Horizon Restaurant.
There are also bars located by each of the resort’s pools.
Although the rooms are more affordable than you’d expect from a five star resort, Sun Online Travel was unable to find them for as cheap as Bobby claimed.
Rooms for two were advertised as low as £20.50pp per night on Agoda, excluding breakfast, from May until the end of October.
Meanwhile the cheapest Airbnb in England costs just £9 a night.
And these travel experts revealed how they save money on hotels.
