If you're looking to book a holiday, then saving money is always a bonus. Costs can quickly add up between flights, accommodation and of course, activities.
However, if you want to save some money, there's a great way to book your hotel that can save you hundreds. Hotels are one of the priciest parts of a holiday, with UK travellers now spending around £92 per night on domestic overnight trips on average. If you want to stay in a big city, that cost can skyrocket even higher.
In London, for example, recent industry data shows average room rates pushing towards the £200-a-night mark.
However, experts at Webpop design, have revealed a simple hack that can save your precious cash. When you've decided where you want to book, clear your browser cookies and cache or use a private window, then search again.
The resulting price can be significantly lower.
This is because booking sites use dynamic pricing and tailor your results to what they know you're looking for.
By wiping your cache and cookies you give yourself a clean slate to search from, free from dynamic pricing.
There are also certain times of day which are better for booking holidays - for example, Tuesdays are likely to have lower prices. This is because the weekend rush is over, and there is often more availability.
Sites will also be seeking to fill any remaining slots quickly. And booking sites are looking to fill up their remaining hotel stays - fast.
When it comes to when to take your holiday, Sunday to Thursday stays will be cheaper as they skip the weekend surges and will likely be at a reduced rate. So if you're not fussed about missing a weekend in your dream destination, try to book your accommodation between these days.
