I’ve used this exact method, traveling for over 2 years non stop. This might have worked in her single use, but for example when I used this is vegas I ended up with a lower class hotel each and every time unfortunately and it wasn’t worth the price.

Paused this video half way through, booked a hotel In Amsterdam and saved close to $1,000 for the week. Thank you 🙏🏼

Take a screenshot of the example photo of the room, then crop it so there’s no text, then use image search and bam you found the hotel with less research. You can double check the ratings to be certain. I’ve done this a few times and works like a charm! Hope this helps.

This definitely works. I've done this a few times because I'm never going to pay full price. Most rates are inflated for hotels and you can usually get great deals like this or by finding last minute deals. Thanks for sharing!

The ratings don't absolutely match anymore, but you can still narrow it down if it shows "Your Hot Rate hotel is guaranteed to be 1 of these 3" and keep refreshing your browser to see which one shows up consistently. I just booked the Ritz-Carlton for almost half the price! Thank you so much for this!!

I was just looking for this exact tip! THANK YOU

Hi Monica, thank you for the advice. I'm a single dad of two HS seniors both graduating this June. They have both applied to the US Air Force Academy. If they get in they'll be leaving for basic training in June and for the most part, I won't see them much for the next 8- years between their school and active duty. We are traveling March 20 returning March 26 during their HS Spring Break. What makes this trip so special is my entire family is traveling to Washington D.C. to support my sister who is competing in a national competition in the federal circuit court for law school. My dad is getting old and my time with my sons it's running out. I want to make as many 3-generation memories as possible. My grandparents took my sister and me on a cross country trip when I was 13 where DC was one of the highlights of the trip. With the boys potentially going to the Air Force Academy I thought what a great experience for them to see DC and get a deeper sense of who we are as a country. This trip is going to be a family vacation we all will remember for a lifetime. I'm booking 3 rooms for 6-days so any help I can get to save money will be so greatly appreciated. Thank you! IG: @Ireys_Tribe

Thank you Monica for this great video! I booked a hotel room 2 days before my event and the price was mind blowing!!! It was under $100!

I watch so many videos on KZread, this is by far the best one I’ve seen on this subject! Thanks for not being clickbait!!!! I am now subscribed to your channel. I know you posted this a while ago, but I’m hoping you have more amazing content like this 💗

This still works! Was skeptical because it took so long to find (on cellphone) you can even go to filter and select the hotel star rating and review rating to narrow it down. Also under filters you can select the area, some of the review items aren’t as easy to spot as in the video, but once you find one that’s super close just look at the original price on the hot deals to compare and see if it matches then the mile distance.

FRIENDLY TIP It usually shows you one photo of the room you’re about to book so instead of matching the ratings, I just look at photos and see if the carpets in the photos match to the one it gives me!

Paused your video 3 minutes in and immediately booked a hotel for a Duluth, Minnesota (1 hour away from me, went to college there and it's on gorgeous Lake Superior). We had to cancel our big summer trip because of covid, so we're just taking the kids up North for a little getaway. This completely works. we're getting a great waterfront Hotel for $60 bucks per night... thank you! And thank you for teaching this GenXer some new tricks!

This is too amazing. I have looked at all the hotels for a week and refuse to pay these prices. Sure enough, I recognize 1/2 the rooms I am looking at and the price is at least $50.00 less. I haven't searched that much yet. Thank you so much. You are a smart cookie.

Going on a trip with my family soon. Using this hack, I was able to get two rooms for what we were going to pay for one! My teenage daughters thank you for getting them their own hotel room!

Doing so much research trying to plan a trip for me and my boyfriend, and I’m so happy I found this video! We are trying to book a trip to Mexico for our five year anniversary. His family is from Mexico and he’s never been, so it’s super meaningful since it will be his first time there. We’re also college students trying to ball on a budget so winning this would be a dream come true!

And an even quicker way to identify the hotel (without all that customer feedback analysis comparison) is to refresh your browser after you've clicked on deal of the day and select the box that states the hotel is one of two (or three) hotels. Keep refreshing your browser and looking at the hotels, one of which remains and the other one (or two) changes, so the hotel you are being offered is the hotel that's always in the selection of two.

@@LilBogota Hi Legend. It looks like they have changed their website now so it makes it impossible to find out what hotel they are actually trying to sell you. When this video came out and when i posted the comment 5 months ago, you used to get a window open which gave a selection of two or three hotels, one of which was the hotel in question. You could then rotate through the hotels by refreshing your browser and using a process of elimination, you could work out which hotel it was because it would always be in the list. It seems they have removed that function. They have even removed the address and now you cant even do address comparisons. There are the customer feedback guest ratings at the bottom of the page still. This may still work if you are prepared to review all the hotels in the geographic area they refer to. So my additional hack doesn't work and you are forced to seek out ratings comparisons like the original poster of the video. Hope this helps. Ray and Sue's Travel Channel.

hacks that make you jump through hoops to save $30 and potentially get your flights bumped - subsequently missing your next flight at your stopover - still need insurance. to cover fck-ups like that

The Westin Ka'anapali is AMAZING! It is BY FAR, the most beautiful hotel/grounds we have ever stayed at! I have a video that tours the property but it's just so much better in person! Great job on the amazing tips!!!!!

My goal for hotel, airline, and rental car hacks was to get the employee rate. That's always under $100 per night. I'm still working that angle. I always thought the Hotwire Deals were time sensitive. Meaning the deal will expire from your screen in 3 mins. It seems it would take some time to check on the ratings of all of those properties if it's a major city like San Francisco or Miami. The giveaway at the end of the video was really cool! It's always nice to give back!!

Seriously insane hack! Way to go Monica! I can’t wait to try this out.

Hello! I am extremely blessed that you took the time to share this wonderful opportunity!!!! I am homeless and live in a 8.5 x 20 foot long car hauler convention. And I love to travel and see different sites! So by living in my rolling home I save tons of money! So with this new information I will go to Hawaii now! Thanks!!

EXTRA TIP: Before even reviewing the ratings, if you compare the star level on the Hot deal and the hotels you narrowed down, that knocks a few more off the list you have to check ratings on. This works for Priceline too! Done this for years and never book hotels any other way.

October 2022 - The ratings don't match anymore or are close but not match exactly. But you can take a look at the 3 options in "Your Hot Rate hotel is guaranteed to be 1 of these 3". Then you refresh the page multiple times, the hotel option that stays the same is the "actual" hotel you will get in that deal. The other two options will change to a different hotel each time you refresh.

This is not what it looks like. Hot wire adds taxes at the end of the deal and taxes are pretty hefty and final price goes up than what it gives you initially. But all being said you can hit a blinder if you are lucky. Worth giving it a shot.

This no longer works. They use a different rating system now which changes to 10 points from the 5 point hot rate system. Bastards.
