In reply to NomadicMatt. Agreed, and check if breakfast is included in the price.

In reply to Doug T. I agree! Hotel.com has been my go-to for the same reason. Also if you use enough nights in one year you get special discounts and added free nights to use ANYWHERE in their system. They also list smaller places, and I've even seen them listing nights for cheaper than the hotel's website. If you travel at least once a year, your reward nights will NEVER expire. (They expire after one year from your last booking, even if you earned the free night years ago) So you can save them up free nights and Europe and spend them at a resort in Asia (or similar) to stretch the dollar value of each night. Last time I used about 5 at a resort in Croatia.

Wonderful tips Matt. Here is a small but useful tip from me. Go to Google Maps, mark the location where you want to stay and search for hotels in that place. You will see many good places that you cannot see in popular hotel booking sites.

Tried this method last time I traveled and found myself a good deal.

Thanks for sharing useful information! I saved bucks of money at Agoda store on booking flight tickets to stay in Italy by clutching coupons from dealhack.

Your brief statement about rewards programs simply said to accumulate points with the big hotel chains. Unless you travel constantly for work, it will take years to have enough to use that way.

You didn’t mention Hotels.com (that I noticed) and we use them exclusively. While I can probably find slightly cheaper rates if I use multiple services, I think the Hotels.com Rewards Program is wonderful.

For every 10 nights you stay at ANY participating hotel, you get 1 Free night to use at ANY participating hotel. The value of the Free night is based on the average price of those 10 stays.

Additionally, over the last 10 years when I have had the need to use their customer support they have gone above and beyond not just to make sure my problem was resolved but to make sure I was happy with the resolution.

Don’t forget about using a Corporate Discount Code to get a good deal on a room, when staying at a major chain. You have to be an employee, vendor or customer of the firm with the code and it can save you 25% or more off the room rates

In reply to Bella.

Agree, that’s not bad… I only use the $5 plan because I don’t travel much but that has worked for me so far…

Thanks for the tips for booking hotels. We want to try and travel more, and saving money on hotels is important for us. I’ll definitely have to try some of the sites you mentioned here, like Booking.com or something.
