• How can I find cheap hotels?

  There are some obvious approaches to take to find the cheapest hotel rooms. Hotels that are not in a downtown area, travelling outside of the high season and staying in hotels that are lower star ratings are all generally good ideas. But there are other trends that can help. KAYAK data from the last 12 months has shown the cheapest day to book your room for is April for domestic stays and Sunday for international stays. The month with the lowest average prices was August for stays in Malaysia and Saturday for international breaks.

• When is the best time to book a hotel?

  You can often get deals on last minute hotel bookings but how far in advance to book really depends on where and when you’re staying. Based on data for all hotel stays made on KAYAK over the last 12 months, prices remained below the average up to 2 weeks before check-in. For last minute hotel bookings made within a week of your arrival, the cheapest time to book was 12 days before check-in.

• Can I book other types of accommodation on KAYAK?

  Yes! There are lots of other accommodation types than just hotel rooms. You’ll find Boutique hotels, Budget hotels and 5 stars hotels, the perfect accommodation for your needs.
