David Smith, Chief Operating Officer of HostelBookers, said, ” We’ve had a phenomenal five years at HostelBookers, and experienced unprecedented growth. This is the first time we have run a promotion on this scale but our anniversary felt like the perfect time, it’s a way to say thank you to all our customers, and give a little something back, after all their help over the years.”?

HostelBookers is also running a competition as part of the birthday celebrations, they’ll be giving away 20 “˜presents’ to customers, including £500 in cash, an ASUS 701SD Travel Laptop and a Canon Ixus 85 Digital Camera
