-'''[//hotels.com Hotels.com]''' heavily advertises their “Your Secret Price” hotels and the discount percentages sometimes seem significant, but the true discount is usually much less than it appears. When you compare their secret prices to the prices available on other mainstream websites, they are often the same or just slightly less expensive. That's great if you are just booking on Hotels.com anyway.

When you compare their secret prices to the prices available on other mainstream websites, they are often the same or just slightly less expensive. That's great if you are just booking on Hotels.com anyway to take advantage of their reward program. But you can often find much better rates on websites that focus on secret deals.
 '''[//club1hotels.com Club 1 Hotels]''' is a fee-based website that claims to give you great wholesale rates. They got a lot of press when they launched via an effective blog-outreach program coupled with “free” charter memberships. We find the site difficult to use, and once you factor in their hidden booking fees, it generally doesn’t offer better rates than what you can find on the free websites mentioned above. The service may improve over time.
