Tips For Gaming Hotel Websites To Get The Best Room Rates

I travel a lot, all over the west coast mostly, and know for a fact that this strategy may work well...BUT....the hotel might make you move to another room (Sat/Sun deal), a slightly downgraded room for the cheaper price, in maybe not such a great location, so be careful, call ahead directly to the hotel and ask. I've been able to make a good deal by calling the hotel directly, esp. since I'm a Marriott rewards member, and the front desk will bend a little for me. Otherwise, be careful!! Plan B can sometimes be disappointing!!

Hi, Makereadhappy. You're right- you do have to be careful. As I said above, make the hotel aware of what your doing and tell them you don't want to move rooms. I've booked hotels using the strategy above many, many times at dozens of different hotels and have never had to move to a different room.
