Secret tips to get the best hotel deals when Travelling

Planning a move to a new city or country is an exciting yet daunting endeavour.

Whether you're relocating for work, study, or simply seeking a change of scenery, visiting the destination ahead of time is crucial for making informed decisions. And while embarking on this journey, finding the right hotel accommodation plays a key role in ensuring a smooth transition.

At TrueWorld Capital, we understand the importance of thoroughly exploring your future home before making the move. That's why we offer comprehensive City Profile Packages to provide invaluable insights into your chosen destination. As you prepare for your visit, consider these tips to secure the best hotel deals and make the most of your pre-relocation experience.

• Consider going all-in: Staying at all-inclusive resorts can help you save on food, drinks, and entertainment. This can certainly add up to longer stays, especially when traveling in large groups.
  

• Check your location: By staying away from the center, you can save big in places with comprehensive public transport systems, such as New York, Chicago, Paris, London, and Hong Kong. It’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the destination’s public transport system before booking.
  

• Mention when it's a special occasion: Whether it's your birthday, anniversary, honeymoon, or first time at a hotel, it never hurts to mention that you're there celebrating a special time. Sometimes, it can lead to upgrades or amenity kits that help make your stay all the more special.
  

• Loyalty pays off: If you prefer staying with a hotel chain, you can score major perks such as free nights, miles, early check-ins, and food and beverage discounts by signing up for their rewards program.
  

• Ask for a corner room: Opting for a corner room can often provide more square footage for the same price. When requesting an upgrade, it's best to be discreet, especially during busy periods.
  

• Check in near the end of the day: If you're hoping to snag an upgrade, checking in toward the end of the day might be your answer. Hotels are more likely to offer upgrades that are still available as they have a better sense of occupancy by that point.
  

• Don’t book through a travel site: While travel discount sites like Kayak, Expedia, or Google Hotels are good places to start, it's often best to book directly with the hotel. Many hotels will meet or beat the best internet rate when you book with them, and you may even receive a free upgrade or additional perks.
  

• This is the best time to book a hotel room: If it’s feasible, wait until the day you need the hotel room to book it. The later in the day, the better, as hotels are more likely to offer lower rates. On average, the same-day rate of a hotel room is 10% cheaper than booking in advance. However, avoid relying on this strategy in busy tourist cities or during large events.

By following these tips, you can not only secure the best hotel deals but also enhance your pre-relocation experience. Remember, a comfortable and well-planned stay sets the tone for a successful transition to your new home.
