Still, be prepared to grab any last-minute deals. Some places drop their rates a day or two before arrival to fill empty rooms. This is more likely to happen during low season or on quieter days, though.
Stay flexible with your dates, unlock better rates. Search for hotels in different seasons or months. Even booking during the week (instead of weekends) can work out cheaper.
