khewston Posted October 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I have been watching the rates for the Embassy Suites in Fort Lauderdale Since July. We will be traveling in April. I have watched the rates go from $327 a night, all the way down to $222. Of course I booked it when it was down to $222. Now, it's back up to $327. I'm just wondering why the rates change this drastically from day to day? Will the room I get by paying only $222, reflect the price I paid?

If you book the room when the rate is $222, thats all that you will pay (plus taxes of course), regardless of what the rate is the day you check-in. When you see a decent rate, ALWAYS book it, but be SURE it is a cancellable rate. That way if rates go down, you can cancel and rebook (usually takes less than 5 minutes). MANY of us frequent cruisers do this all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted October 5, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) The rooms are all the same. So other than view and room location, the room and amenities you get will not be down graded to reflect the price you paid. Consider yourself lucky that maybe someone checked inventory for your date and noticed a few too many vacancies. Did you book it with Hilton? If so, you can check vacancies the day before and request a specific room. Edited October 5, 2016 by eandj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
