I logged onto ACCOR app as I was looking for accommodation in Gold Coast next month and was surprised to see this pricing (screenshot attached). So jumped on it & booked it. The charge came through on my c/c as $231.
I have emailed them so will see what happens.

Its possible that your device was showing the currency as USD, which today is approximately USD156.
AUD231 seems to be the current price in AUD when I just looked. Hope Accor reply promptly.

Was the price showing in USD?

Grrrrr, Yes it was in USD. I think its because I downloaded or upgraded the new ALL app which was preset to USD. My previous app was set to AUD.
 
The charge came through on my c/c as $231.

Suspect this is because of the currency in your app. I also book accor hotels using my App and most of the times the currency it shows is EUR however I later update the currency to AUD.
 
You're not alone. Has happened to me with other apps.
 
With Accor you have to do a dummy booking to get the Actual price if it's not your normal currency.
