4. What does “rack rate” mean?

Every hotel has what is known in the hotelier industry as a “rack rate” (also known as full rate or published rate).   These are the top rates a hotel charges their guests. While few guests actually pay this rate, hoteliers use these rates as a basis for discounting. Most hotels routinely offer discounts ranging from 10-30% simply for the asking.

Many business hotels offer bigger discounts on weekends when few business people travel. Likewise, resort hotels often discount their rates during the week and slash their rates during the off-season. Obtaining these discounted rates is often simply a matter of requesting the “corporate rate”, “weekend package”, or “low-season discount”.

Since Viet Green Luxury Travel books thousands of rooms with hotels/resorts in Vietnam and Indochina,  we get the wholesale contract and we pass this saving on to you. You can save up to 75% off rack rates.  Book Online With Us Today!
