Bring it to their attention. They'll usually match it... or give you an upgrade for the same price you booked the more expensive one for.

If there's no cancellation fee a certain time in advance (I know it is more than likely), that surely you could un-book it online, and pay brochure price seperately. The first answer seems pretty relevant though, I'm sure if you said then they'd be more than happy to keep the low price as technically they aren't losing money. Unless you booked through a holiday agency, who may take a proportion of the price ?

You've posted three different questions about this all saying slightly differeent things:-
1) That the brochure didn't display prices
2) That the brochure was old.
3) That you booked online.
If you want meaningful advice you'll have to clarify what the situation is.

It is usually the other way around with the net being the cheaper price. You have no recourse but if you complain politely you might get a few freebies or a small discount.
Act like a poor fool who has very little money and who has been tricked, the receptionist may take pity on you, bug bambi eyes!

Trading Standards

Check out the small print of the booking you made. Can you cancel without penalty?
You could email the firm you made the booking with and ask them to justfy their charges.....
An expensive lesson that you need to check prices BEFORE booking anything. On-line isn't always a bargain.

if you booked it with the brochure company online then you must ring them up and insist they price match or you'll report them to trading standards. if it's a different company then you've got no room for negotiating. check flight supplements and transfer costs before you go mad at them.

Under most circumstances you would be seen to have contracted with the hotel, while you can appeal to their better nature unless you can reach an agreement to break the origional contract you are stuck.
Check the online site to see if they have a pricematch offer.

That depends on the web site you booked it on. If they have a lowest price guarantee, they must match the difference. If they don't, you must pay the price you booked the room for.
