If you are looking to book a hotel for a holiday or for business travel then you may be able to get a good deal by doing some research before you book. If you can be flexible on the dates then certain hotels will offer substantial discounts for mid-week stays for example or going out of peak times i.e. school holidays. Once you have found a hotel that you want to stay at, have a look at a number of compassion sites to see which one is offering not only the best price but also the best deals. Some may include breakfast of free cancellations.

When you have got the best price from a comparison site, also research voucher codes as you may find one online that gives you a code to get money off. You should also contact the hotel directly because they can often lower the cost advertised through comparison sites if you book with them direct as they will not have to pay commission on the sale.
