The sweetest of hotel deals is the same day hotel special.  Sure you can get a sweet deal with very early booking or late booking a few days in advance.  But, when hotels have a drop in occupancy on the date of check-in due to factors that they had not planned for, sweet hotel deals are abundant.  Hotels have the ability to very quickly change the room’s rates similar to airlines.  Have you ever been on the phone getting an airline quote and while you were on hold the price literally doubled as the last seats on the plane were taken by another agent and you were forced to consider another flight?  It happens and the industry adapts to supply and demand quickly to prevent lost revenue or inefficient use of its fixed resources.

Sweet Deals On Hotel Rooms And Suites

We don’t know who coined the phrase “sweet deal”; but we know that it’s been around a long time, who knows how long? The 70’s were “sweet” as were the 50’s and of course sweet deals are just as sweet today.  So what’s a Sweet Hotel Deal?  Sweet Hotel Deals generally come in the form of same day hotel specials, last rooms available, very early or very late booking, seasonal occupancy discount, sell off hotels, hotels booking tonight, and hotel demand fluctuation due to temporary inconvenience (construction, traffic routing, noise, and other exogenous issues to the hotel).  But what they all have in common is that if you are looking for a really great price, a sweet hotel deal, then you’ll generally find it if it fits into one or more of those descriptions and dozens of others that motivate the hotel to drastically drop the room rates to fill it.  Hotel rooms and suites all have an expiration date.  If the room or suite goes unsold there is no opportunity for the hotel to make up the lost revenue.  Hoteliers are especially sensitive to lost revenue opportunities and managers and the accounting team are held to strict occupancy standards to keep hotel rooms and hotel suites full.
