If you want a discount, you must ASK for it. Here are some ideas:
* Look for amazing bargains on the internet. There are different kinds of motels that provide excellent discounts to internet consumers. Make sure to have a look at them.
* Schedule your vacation during the off-season. These are the periods when substantial reductions are offered.
* Make a phone call to the hotel of your choosing. Inquire about any special deals or discounts they may be able to provide. Make a list of all promotions.
* Certain hotels may provide discounts to cardholders of certain card institutions. Request the manager and inquire about it. The manager is the ideal person to ask since, if you can negotiate, he has the power to negotiate with you.
* Inquire whether they provide discounts to students or seniors.
* Simply call and inquire how you may qualify for a discount. If they offer discounts on specific days of the week or at certain seasons of the year, ask them about it and how much or how little they can give, then ask if you can still obtain a larger discount. Hotels are usually ready to give in during off-peak seasons in order to fill vacant rooms.
* Request specific packages. Breakfast is typically included in hotel accommodations.
* Make use of the name drop. Mention the name of someone you know who often stays with them. It may be beneficial. Inform them that a friend recommended you to them and request a discount. Never give up even if they say no. A remark such as "is that the best you can do?" may elicit a significant discount.
* Military personnel often get discounted accommodation rates. Government workers are usually given discounts.
* You could certainly negotiate for a discount during off-peak seasons. If they don't bend after you give a discount, ask for additional extras, such as breakfast.
* When negotiating, it is critical to document all agreed-upon talks. Write down the names of the people you've been speaking with, as well as the time, day, and date. Request a phone number that you may contact for confirmation before checking in to the hotel.
* When you arrive at the hotel, have a look around and request another round of bargaining. For example, if you believe the hotel is not completely filled, request a room with a better view than the one you are currently in if you do not agree with what you see.
Have a great time!
