Dollars And Cents

Profits Drift Down The Canal

A four-star hotel near Venice stands to lose nearly £80,000 after mistakenly offering a romantic weekend in the Italian city for just one cent. The Crowne Plaza in Quarto D'Altino, 15 miles from Venice, received bookings for the equivalent of 1,400 room nights on the night the rate was posted on its website.

FOOTNOTE: From gondola to "gone dollar".
