hotel booking app

[BrentB]

What is your favorite hotel room app for last minute bookings?

Travelocity is one. But I usually find just going directly to the hotels website, then linking to the actual hotel I want to use sometimes gets the best price.

I think Expedia is the easiest app to use for comparing and picking out the motel, but I don't book through them often. I find the one that looks best then call them directly. If the price is higher I ask if booking through Expedia is a better option for price and they usually match it within a buck or two. If not, then I use Expedia from their parking lot to book or find another.

I use booking.com for most of my travel. On my recent trip to Europe, I booked all of my rooms for a month with them. Easy to book, easy to monitor bookings and easy to change or cancel bookings.

I use the appropriate hotel app (e.g. Marriott app). In Asia I had good luck with Ctrip.

We usually stay in La Quinta because of their dog policy, and book thru their app. If I see a lower price, they will equal or beat that. Plus we usually get one free night on a cross country trip.

I had a bad experience with one of the "expedia" type of apps (don't remember which one), but had booked rooms for a friend whose care broke down, and could not get a refund even though the room was 48 hours ahead, whereas the rooms I had booked with La Quinta, there was no problem. Apparently these booking services get some deals on blocks of rooms, and for some reason they will not give a refund.--may have just been my bad experience....
