People tend to ask us a lot of hotel rate related questions--go figure.
Seeing that we love to help, or at least feign helpfulness, we figured we would take you through our case study of booking a hotel in downtown New York.
No single source will always net you the lowest hotel rate, as always, caveat emptor.
In our case we knew where we were staying: Soho Grand. Futhermore, our date was not flexible, October 24th was a must.
With this in mind we used three online methods and one analog method to book our room. Results post click.
