Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay updated on flash sales and exclusive promotions, helping you seize opportunities for savings. Additionally, utilise Smart Shopping, a comparison tool within the app that allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you are informed of any price drops or availability changes for your preferred hotels.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Columbus hotel. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and sometimes offer better value.
