Well-Hidden Secrets Hotels Don’t Want Their Guests To Know About

Here’s a trick to cancel your stay without paying the cancellation fee

Everyone knows that you should cancel your reservation 24-hours before your check-in. Otherwise, the hotel will charge you an exorbitant (and unfair) cancellation fee. So, if you’re forced to change your plans out of the blue and don’t want to fork out the extra money you have to pay, follow this clever trick.

To skip cancellation fees, ask the hotel to move your reservation to a few weeks later first. After two or three days, cancel the new reservation over the phone. Since the reservation date is now different, you can get most of your money back. If you’re lucky enough, you may even get to recoup the entire deposit.
