How can i get the cheapest price on a hotel room that i've already selected?

i am going on a honeymoon here real soon, and i know the dates, i know the hotel, and i know the specific type of room that i want.

i need to get the cheapest price for that room...

i looked on expedia.com, travelocity.com, orbitz.com and the hotel website.

i havent called yet.

im not sure if a travel agent can get me a cheap enough price to offset the savings.

someone also recommended to me that i not reserve anything. they said i should just show up and that i might be able to get a room pretty cheap that way. im a little nervous about that because i dont want them to sell out (touristy area)

have i exhausted my options or is there something else i can try?

Boy someone gave you bad advice. Do not show up and expect a cheaper room. The opposite is true, showing up is more likely to be more expensive or sold out. If it is touristy like you say, then all the more likely it will be booked. If you are standing there at their front desk with luggage and far, far from home, the hotel knows they usually can dictate the price. And by the time your honeymoon comes around, you will be happy to have all the details taken care of.

Sometimes waiting a bit will help. If they aren't booking as fast as they like, or have a sale. Especially on line. So depending on how far off the trip is, you could take a chance and keep checking and checking. But it is a risk too, AND NOT leaving it until you show up.

You have researched prices. Give them a call. Ask availability, then ask the price. Let them know you are booking your honeymoon, and ask if there are any specials or cheaper rates. The main tip for getting better rates is calling and asking for a better rate.

I would not just show up and hope for a room -- your honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and should not be left to chance.

Book your hotel room now! Since you already know where you want to stay, go ahead and reserve your room. Your honeymoon would be ruined if you showed up with no reservation in hand.

That being said, you'll most likely not find any cheaper prices than you've already found. Hotels, especially nicer resorts, set their prices a year in advance, and don't typically discount at all.

Might I suggest, tho, heading to http://www.resideo.com/ -- I've been using them a bunch lately. They have a great search feature, good information & typically have same rates as hotels.com, etc.

Good luck, have fun -- and CONGRATS!
