me and my b/f want to get a hotel room for a night but im bit confused bowt something... when it says ?8 per room per night does that mean that both people in the room have to pay ?8 or is it just ?8 for both?

Depends. If it says 'pp' or 'pppn' (per person/per person per night) after the price then it will be each. Otherwise it is normally charge by the room.

Just ring the hotel and ask.
