How to book a hotel in Singapore with best savings

Post by abbby » Mon, 17 Nov 2014 2:47 pm

I found a hotel to book during the Dec holidays, i called up the hotel to check on the rates and there wasn't much of an offer because of the peak period. I went online for some hotel sites (tripadvisor, hotelclub, expedia) , but they have also blocked out those dates as 'Not Available'.

So how can I book a hotel lower than the published rates offered by the hotels?

During high seasons? Not likely unless booked half a year in advance or more.

Try Agoda they seem to be advertising discounts over the holiday period.
