Hotel Price Comparisons
Compare selected hotel searches with their listed public prices and Wholesale Hotel Rates member prices. Availability and savings vary by date, room type, and hotel.
Real hotel rate examples
Every comparison displays the search date, stay details, and rate difference recorded for that example.
How to read a hotel price comparison
A comparison is most useful when the hotel, travel dates, guest count, room category, and policy terms describe the same stay. The examples on this page document a particular search. They help travelers understand how a member price compared with a public listing at that moment, but they do not guarantee that the same room or rate will be available for a later search.
- Start with the property name, destination, arrival and departure dates, and number of guests.
- Confirm that the compared rates describe the same room category and occupancy before drawing a conclusion about savings.
- Review the full reservation total, including taxes, mandatory fees, deposits, parking, resort charges, and any other disclosed charges.
- Read the cancellation and refund terms because a lower non-refundable rate may not be comparable to a flexible rate.
Why recorded hotel prices can differ
Hotel pricing is dynamic. Inventory, demand, local events, length of stay, room configuration, supplier availability, and cancellation conditions can all affect a displayed price. A rate found for one search may change before the next search, even for the same hotel. Travelers should use a published comparison as a practical example, then verify the final details for their own requested stay.
Questions to ask before booking
Before selecting a hotel option, compare the total stay cost rather than only the nightly figure. Check whether breakfast, parking, Wi-Fi, resort access, loyalty benefits, upgrades, or other amenities are included or excluded. Confirm the hotel address, guest names, dates, room details, payment timing, and cancellation deadline in the final booking flow.
- Use the same trip details when reviewing hotel options.
- Choose the rate and policy that fit the trip's flexibility and budget requirements.
- Save the booking confirmation and review it promptly for accuracy after a reservation is completed.
