If you really need to find a good deal, start looking for it soon enough. This gives time to find a range of accommodation, be it hotels, bed and breakfasts or even apartments. Then compare their offerings and their services and facilities and then choose the one that works best for you.

Do you have to stay at the hotel for a long time or do you travel in a group? In that case, it is more likely that if you request a discount, you will be offered one. But be sure to ask before making reservations. Some hotels also offer special offers for individuals. For example, some Nairobi hotels have lower rates for UN personnel. If you are partnering with some of the major humanitarian organizations, ask if the hotel has special rates for the staff.
synchronization
Whenever possible, plan your travel period appropriately taking into account peak seasons. If you are traveling for the weekend, it may be a good idea to stay at a business hotel where prices are likely to be lower than at resorts. Similarly, you can stay in holiday homes on weekdays and save on your room budget.
Planning to take a holiday in the off-season for tourists can save you money and make your trip easier. For example, Mombasa hotels in Kenya double the rate of even triple their room rates in high season. And the large number of visitors looking for hotels makes it even more difficult to find a hotel when you plan last-minute trips.
