Staying at an upgraded hotel room when you are on your own trips can make your trip much more fun and enjoyable. <br><br>Too bad that most of us have to pass this option up and instead go for a more inexpensive or even moderately priced hotel. However , there really are some very good tactics to make use of to get the hotel room that you really want in a price that you can really afford. <br>All it takes is some research and planning on your behalf but it can be done. As you might imagine, weekends within the hotel business are the busy occasions so it will be difficult to get reduced rates. <br><br>But with a little strategic planning such as working your trip during the 7 days will help you get a much lower rate. <br>It's not just the weekends that you have to watch out for when it comes to rates. You also need to be conscious of seasonal times so that you don't attempt to book your trip during the busy time of year. However during the off-season, the opposite can many times hold true and you can acquire some very nice rates for very nice hotel rooms. <br><br>Also, if you're a member of any organizations such as Triple A, American Association of Retired People, or the military, be sure to check on any discounts that the various hotels might allow you as a member. <br>If you are not quite certain, go ahead and then call the hotels and discover just what discounts to the various subscriptions they might offer. And by the way... while you ask them to on the phone don't be shy about getting them to quote you their absolute lowest price they can offer. <br><br>Don't forget about the web either. There are some excellent services on the Internet that allow you to compare all the various prices and even shop out there websites. Many of the various hotels have got reward programs that reward clients for staying with them on a frequent basis. <br>If you are the type that travels a bit, these reward programs can be very beneficial. <br>Also, make sure you mention the length of your stay when you are talking to the desk clerk or reserving your reservations. Once you arrive at the hotel be sure to ask them if they have any kind of upgrades available. <br><br>During slow moments for just a slight bump in the price of your room you can many times be afforded a very nice upgrade. Therefore , if they have a nicer room accessible they may just on her your request. Also be mindful of the type of room location that you like and don't forget to discuss this with the desk clerk or the reservation agent. <br><br>For example, if you would like a room at the end of the hall with no neighbours and away from the traffic noise, then make sure that you request these things beforehand. Planning your stay as far as you can advance is also a good way to insure that you will get the room and the amenities that you want. <br><br><br>Probably the biggest advantage you can have when you travel is flexibility. The more flexible you are with your itinerary and your stay the greater chance you have of nailing down some really nice upgrades. So , if you're flexible keep a sharp eye on various price quotes. <br>By carrying this out you can really grab onto some good last minute deals and short term reduced offers. <br>Believe it or not, you can work some good deals even when you enter the lobby later in the evening and ask for a room. The hotel clerk understands that not much traffic is going to be coming at this time of night so they might as well acquire some discounted rate rather than no price at all. <br><br><br>In other words, without having you there the room would or else go unused. However , they might be thinking that since you look so tired they are going to score a big hit on you simply because you are so tired you will except whatever rate they quote a person. Don't fall for this. <br><br>And don't be afraid to work out their offer. <br>If you happen to be traveling as a part of a group, then be my guest make sure that you negotiate your room prices. Do not merely accept the quoted offer from the hotel. <br><br>Having busy rooms that produce revenue will be the primary goal of any resort. So , when times are a bit slower and the hotels aren't totally booked, it is a great time to work out a discounted price or an upgraded room. For the hotel generating some income for room is certainly better than that area producing no revenue at all.
