How to find the best hotel deal in Tianjin
The same magic behind our flight search can also help you find the best room rates around. Use these handy tips to search smarter and save quicker on your Tianjin hotel.
Save on your Tianjin hotel and get the room type you actually want when you book early. You'll also have more time to weigh up your options and choose the ideal place.
However, it's still possible to get last-minute deals. Although prices generally increase closer to your stay, some places cut rates a day or two before to fill empty rooms, especially in low season.
Stay flexible with your dates, snag better rates. Search for hotels in different seasons or months. Even going midweek (instead of weekends) can help you save more.
Skip the risk of extra fees by searching for stays that offer free cancellation. If your plans change or you find a better deal, you can easily cancel your booking.
