If you are planning on taking a hotel holiday in Auckland, New Zealand, have you thought about booking your accommodation at the 'last minute?' Sounds scary but doing this can save you money for the rest of your trip. Usually these rates apply for a period of up to 28 days, so you can have peace of mind that this doesn't mean you have to book the day before you leave.
So How Do They Work?
Many Auckland hotel accommodations have a number of rooms which don't get booked, these are made available on last minute accommodation websites at a cheaper price, which can be discounted by up to 60% of the standard rate.
There are a range of websites promoting these offers so it pays to check each for exactly what is on offer and what you are paying for. Some will provide 'extras' like free breakfasts, champagne on arrival or a free shuttle service, while others are simply providing just the hotel suite accommodation so it's a good idea to check what you are required to pay for before you book.
We all know that feeling when you are about to book an accommodation and you start to wonder what you are really going to get for the price you pay. Some 'last minute' websites allow you to see all of the available rates on one page which allows you to compare more than one accommodation (& their services) at a time - thus making your decision a little easier!
