1. Avoid traveling during Peak Season: When traveling avoid scheduling dates people will most likely be traveling. These are the Holidays season or during school vacations where most of the people are free to travel. Choose dates that are least likely to be the peak time to travel.

2. Be a Member. Avail the free membership program that most hotel chains have to offer. This is a program that will allow you to earn points as you constantly visit their hotel. The earned points can be redeemed for a free night stay.

3. Special rates will be given to students, senior citizen and military service personnel. It is wise to mention some affiliation as you might get some discount if you are a member to a chosen affiliate.

4. Try to check the website of the hotel you wish to stay. These hotels have some special codes that you need to open to see its promo. You may search on the internet how to avail discounts through unlocking codes.

5. Avoid Hidden Charges: Check for the hidden charges that might be included in the quotes. You may ask for amenities that are for free or for a fee. This is important to know your limitations.

6. Family Accommodation/Group Travel. You may ask for a discount for a group travel. You may ask if the hotel will give you a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel. You may also ask if there is possible free breakfast for large groups(though many offer free continental breakfast) this is just one more way you may be able to add to the ease of your trip.
