Hotel Prices
Have you ever wondered which is more economical between booking a hotel in Japan through a travel site such as Expedia in the U.S. or through a Japanese travel site? I am planning a business trip to Japan at the end of this month and wanted to compare hotel prices from different sites.
This time, I checked the price for a seven-night stay at the Grand Prince Hotel Main Tower in Shinagawa, Tokyo from October 29 to November 5, 2023, for one person.
Expedia.com | $1,526.00
Booking.com | $1,736.00
Priceline.com | $1,396.00
Hotels.com | $1,552.00
Japanese Sites – US$ = 147 Yen Rate
Ikyu.com | 165,980Yen or ~$1,129.11
Rakuten Travel | 212,944Yen or ~$1,448.60
I was a little surprised to see such a big price difference. Ikyu.com was the cheapest, but it might be fun to look for cheaper rates on other websites as well. By the way, a search on the Shinagawa Prince Hotel's official website shows a discounted rate of 178,667 Yen for three nights or more. Membership is free, so I would highly recommend it. You can also get points if you purchase directly from the hotel.
Finding hotels like this is one of the best ways to travel.
