Useful advice |
| |
|
Still, if a hotel has a
website, you can get a feel for what the hotel is like, where it's
located, and how it's managed. Many guidebooks now include web addresses
in their hotel listings. If there's a place in your book that sounds
interesting, check it out online before you book a room. |

Avoid surprise |
|
|
|
Always ensure that the rate
you’ve found is available for immediate booking. The better sites will
provide explanations of their booking policies. Also, make sure you are
qualified to obtain that rate, since sometimes the best rates are only
available for certain consumers. |

|
|
Once you are sure |
| |
|
Never book a hotel room online
until you’ve read and understood the cancellation policy. Many
independent travel web sites charge additional fees for changes and
cancellations, in addition to fees levied by the hotel. |

Be aware of extra charges |
| |
|
Before booking a hotel room
online, make sure you’ve determined the final rate. There may be
additional charges, including federal, state, and local taxes; security
and lodging fees; and booking or service fees from the hotel and/or the
Web site. |
