Selecting a hotel in Bangalore

A unique idea currently gaining a lot of popularity is room biding. The idea is quite simple. You go to s a site like Price line and select the grade of hotel that you want. You then bid on a room not knowing what hotel the room is for and agree to take it if you win. Hotels use this service to sell unsold rooms and there are great deals available all year round.

It is a risk but many people have found some luxury hotels rooms at incredible rates. If you smart though it is possible to work out what hotel the room you’re bidding on is for. ie if you paste the description of the hotel in to google you may find it has been copied from the original hotel website! You can also try to work out which hotel it is by comparing the distance of the hotel from the city centre to hotels on google maps.

It is advisable to avoid on-request bookings when making a decision on a hotel. These offers often appear when the comparison site doesn’t have direct access to the hotel and has to check if the room is available. This has led to many people passing on cheaper offers as they think they already have a reservation, only to find that they don’t have a booking at all!

Many hotels when first opening offer special rates to their first customers. Some people have found discounts of up to 50% in the first opening weeks of a new hotel. Sites like Hotel news resource offer news on latest hotel openings from all over the world; it’s also worth checking out some of the big news sites like google news for new hotel openings.

Service hotels

It is a type of furnished apartment available for short-term or long-term stays, which provides amenities for daily use.

Serviced apartments can be less expensive than equivalent hotel rooms. Since the beginning of the boom in cheap international travel and the corresponding increase in the level of sophistication of international travelers, interest in serviced apartments has risen at the expense of the use of hotels for short stays. The benefits of serviced apartments may include more space and privacy, convenience when traveling with a family, and the cost savings associated with cooking one's own meals in the apartment.

The above benefits and criteria were highlighted in the inaugural Global Serviced Apartment Industry Report 2008, which was produced following a survey of 20,000 serviced apartment operators, (corporate) travel agents and apartment bookers worldwide.

In this report the following description has been given of a serviced apartment and the various types of serviced apartments that can be distinguished:
