Trying to beat their $264/night price + tax




Locked due to necro. Codes in penultimate post no longer seem relevant, so closing this thread.

Did you try Priceline?

How about AAA rate? I've seen the price drop $100/night...hotels almost never ask for the card anyway.

 

[MrChad]

If your traveling on business, there are a couple of ways to save money.

First off, if your travel is being reimbursed by the client, ask if that client has a corporate rate code available. If no corporate rate is available and you'll be traveling back and forth to that location frequently, contact the local group/corporate sales office and try and work out a discount rate plan. Lastly, reserve several weeks in advance to get the best rate.

AAA discount, but be prepared to present your card. Every hotel that I've been to asks for the card when I get the AAA discount.

 

[SoulAssassin]

If you are traveling for one of these companies or otherwise qualify for one of the other codes you can often get a good discount. I'm staying at a FS Marriott normally $189/night for $129.

Thank you for the Marriott discount codes. Has anyone ever used VSA which according to your list is a corp rate for Visa?? Very good discounts but wondering if we have to provide ID for this rate. I have read that you don't that it's a publicly used rate?? Your help is greatly appreicated. ML
