Where To Stay!

Anyone who travels even a little bit knows about the sites where you can comparison shop for flights. Every time we plan a trip I hit a half dozen sites just for the airfare part. Finding a hotel is another online adventure in itself. Have you ever tried to compare the best hotel rates in a specific city? My brain hurts just thinking about it! Most destinations have hundreds of hotels to available and each has its own site. I still remember trying to enter prices, ratings, etc. into an Excel spreadsheet when we were deciding on a hotel in Rehoboth Beach, Deleware. I’m still not sure if we got the best price available or not.

If you’re like me, you want an easier way to find the best hotel prices when you travel. Since several of my online friends and I will be staying in Las Vegas soon, we’ve been searching for good prices within a reasonable distance of the Convention Center. I’ve found great options using the HotelsCombined.com - Free Price Comparison Tool. I’ve managed to narrow down our choices easily and quickly. In fact, it looks like we’ve found the ideal hotel for all of us - and at a price we can all afford, too.

I wish I’d known about this tool before; it sure would have saved me a lot of time! Oh, and it even covers international hotels, in up to 200 countries around the world. That should come in handy when Brian is ready for that Australian vacation he keeps mentioning.

  • I always use Expedia for finding and comparing hotel availability and prices, there are so many of these comparison sites that I think it is best people stick to one or two that they are comfortable with.

  • I’m a comparison shopper. I’ve had luck at various sites, for different trips. And a few times my RL travel agent got me the best price. You just never know.
