Going to Frankfurt again this year
I have not missed the Frankfurt Book Fair (FBF) for the last 3 years and certainly will not going to miss it this year. Having made friends and connections with publishers from around the world, it is hard to say no to FBF and Frankfurt itself. I like to think of Frankfurt as my 2nd home. 🙂
A lovely fall scenery near Main River.
This year will be different as I will travel with a writer friend, Syikin, and will be sharing a room together. Planning for accommodation is good because during the book fair, all hotels in the area will mark up their hotel price. If normal rate is Euro 50, the rate will go up to Euro 100 or more.
Using HotelsCombined, Syikin and I found a cheap hotel in the central station (Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof), a walking distance (about 10 minutes) to the book fair.
For your information, HotelsCombined is a metasearch engine where you can compare hotel rates and find cheaper deals before planning your holidays.
You just have to type in the city that you are going and the date of travel, HotelsCombined will do the searching and list all the hotels available. The list contains the availability and prices from all the top travel websites from around the world, including Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, Agoda, Venere, LateRooms and many more.
Apart from the list, a refine search can be done to see Star Ratings, Price, Property Type, Guest Ratings, Hotel Features, Theme and many more.
Easy peasy, right? HotelsCombined believed that booking accommodation online should be easy. Instead of having to trawl through a hundred websites looking at a thousand ‘deals’, you just have to visit to HotelsCombined to know you’ve booked the hotel that’s right for you – at the best possible price.

Never use hotelcombined before. Usually i use trip advisor or now try trivago.
imaisha
oh, trip advisor & trivago mmg biasa dgr siap ada iklan dlm tv lagi kan.. well, pilihan di tangan anda.. pilih je mana2 suka.. 🙂

Kena pandai pilih tau imaisha. Ada yg cuma pamirkan rate bilik tanpa tax. Bila add tax, harga jd lebih mahal dari website lain sebebarnya dah add tax siap2 or tawarkan tax yg lebih rendah.
So far saya pernah booking dgn agoda dan asiaweb je. Yang lain tak berani kadang2 bila baca review.

oh, ye ke? susah juga tu.. itu yg kadang2 berbelah bagi nak beli barang ke booking or whatever by online. takut kena tipu >.< Thanks for the info~
