The strong point of this method is the fact that in most cases you will be able to see some reliable customers’ reviews. They will tell you more about general ambiance and quality of the place than anything else. What’s more, all the information you need is at the same website, saving you a lot of time and nerves.

Ask friends and workmates

If for any reason you can’t find the information you need on the Internet, you can turn to your friends and workmates. Maybe someone has heard about a good lodging in the area or has even been there. While such information is usually somewhat outdated, they may be found helpful.

Tourist boards

When you are out of ideas, the last thing you can do is to contact the local tourist board. They will surely have the list of hotel accommodations in their area and probably will be able to give you the contact information. In most cases being a member of a local tourist board gives a hotel some level of reliability – they will need to keep some standards, or they risk being kicked off the board.

Think of traveling throughout the off-peak period

Know when the country’s off-peak season so you could have an idea of the cheapest days to travel. Several hotels provide discount rates and cheaper charges during off seasons.

Identify what facilities you want the hotel to have

Conclusion
