If you've been planning travel lately you see hotel rates are crazy and services are less. Having worked in luxe hospitality and writing about it now, here's how to get better rates and what to expect
We do everything we can to avoid places in the high season. Though can be tricky in foreign countries. Here in Penang, Malaysia, we blundered straight into the school holidays. Oh well -- live and learn!
We travel a lot for my hub’s profession and he has a system that saves us lots of money. We fly exclusively one airline so rack up lots of points. He sees his schedule for the year and books hotels and cars for the locations. Just about every week he checks prices, if lower, he cancels original reservations and rebooks. We might change hotels 5 times before we settle on one. It’s true if you can add a day before or after original dates, you can actually save money.
