How to find the best hotel deal in China
You've got your perfect flight locked in. Now let that same clever search engine find you the lowest rates on China hotels. These tips will get you one step closer to sliding that room key into the door.
Save on your China hotel and unlock a wider selection of stays when you book early. You'll also have extra time to compare and choose the perfect place.
Still, be ready to pounce on any last-minute offers. Some places drop their rates a day or two before arrival to fill empty beds. It's more likely this will happen in off-peak season or on quieter days, though.
Stay flexible with your dates to land better rates. Search for hotels in different months or seasons. Even going middle of the week (instead of weekends) can help you save more.
Avoid paying extra fees by searching for stays that offer free cancellation. If your plans fall through or a better deal shows up, you can cancel without penalty.
