Going Where Hotel Rates Have Fallen
| October 5th, 2009 No commentsA look through the recent Hotel Price Index report from Hotels.com offers a graphic reminder of the collapse in hotel rates. In the first six months of 2009, rates for bookings made through hotels.com were 17 percent lower than in the first six months of 2008, both worldwide and in North America.
I propose treating this information as a guide to where to go next. Of course, if you have some dream destination in mind, chances are good that you’ll find pretty good prices on both air fares and hotels almost anywhere at this point. But if you’re looking to visit some places that are offering particular deals right now, I have four suggestions: Las Vegas, New York City, Hawaii and New Mexico.
