Shop Around For Best Hotel Rooms

from the it-ain't-that-simple dept

As hotels are working overtime to take back control of their inventory from the various online travel sites, a new study shows that you're best bet is to search around for the best hotel rates. They found that relying on a single travel site won't get you the best rates at all. I've had similar findings personally when I've traveled. The difference in rates from one site to another can be huge (I once found a hotel on one site that was less than half the price that I could find for that hotel on any other site) and constantly changing. While most sites tend to give similar results for airlines, it seems that hotels are a different story completely.
