How to Save Money When You’re Staying in a Houston Hotel

If you are considering booking a Houston hotel you should know there are some great hotels in this city. You might also be interested to know that Houston is a relatively cheap place to visit. This can only be a great thing as it means you can enjoy yourself without worrying about your bank balance too much.

However, if you want to save a bit of money you’ll be pleased to know this article contains a few money-saving tips for you.

Stay in the Middle of the Week

One of the cheapest ways to save money on a hotel is to stay in the middle of the week. Many hotels charge their guests more to stay between Friday through Monday. This is usually because they’re the busiest times of the week.

If you only plan to stay in Houston for a few days, it might be worth seeing if you can stay mid-week. Three or four mid-week nights could cost the same as staying one or two nights over the weekend. It, therefore, makes sense to stay when it’s cheaper.

Visit Off-Season

If you would like to save a lot of money on your trip to Houston you should consider visiting off-season. This basically means staying in the city when the weather is cooler. Early spring and mid to late fall can be the best times to get cheap rooms in the US.

There tend to be fewer guests staying in hotels in the spring and fall Unless there's a festival taking place. If there’s a festival running it’s likely that most hotels are going to be pretty busy. Take a look online and see when the festivals take place so you know when to avoid the area. Visiting for a week or two during the off-season could save you a nice bit of cash.

Ask for a Good Deal

If you’re feeling brave when you’re booking your hotel stay consider contacting the hotel directly. Ask the people at the front desk for a good deal. They might be able to help you out. For example, if you plan to stay for 7 nights you could ask them for a free or discounted breakfast. Alternatively, you might want to ask if there are any discounts if there is a group of you staying there.

While you might not feel confident about asking for a good deal, you never know until you try. Those who work on the front desk are used to people asking for deals and bargains so give it your best shot.

As you can see, it is possible for you to save money when you’re staying in a Houston hotel. Consider visiting in the middle of the week, visit off-season if you can, and don’t be afraid to ask for a good deal. With a little bit of work, you could potentially save a good amount of money each time you have the pleasure of visiting Houston.
