The earlier you book, the better. You're more likely to land a cheaper rate on a Srinagar hotel and have more options to choose from when you plan ahead.
However, it's still possible to get last-minute deals. Although prices typically increase closer to your stay, some places cut rates a day or two before to avoid rooms sitting empty, especially when it's quiet.
Flexible on dates? Consider it your ticket to a lower rate. Move your travel window around to discover what deals are on offer. Prices are usually cheaper midweek and outside major travel periods.
Save yourself from extra fees by searching for stays with free cancellation. If your plans fall through or you find a better deal, you can cancel or modify your booking without penalty.
