Travellers who are looking for lower hotel room rates in Australia and are willing to haggle to get them, are being offered some help by the flexible-rate accommodation website Ubid4rooms.com. The website points out deals available to those who are prepared to negotiate on pricing.

Recently, Ubid4rooms.com has extended the booking window from 14 days to 28, making it possible for the corporate and groups market to bid on multiple rooms simultaneously.

“What Ubid4rooms.com does is make bargaining with hotels so much easier, less embarrassing and more successful,” said Gary Berman, the founder of Ubid4rooms.com. “The corporate market loves making deals and now they can negotiate via our sites with a growing number of properties keen to accept offers for rooms rather than leave the rooms empty.”

More than 600 hotels in Australia now participate, by inviting confidential offers from consumers on their room rates via Ubid4rooms.com. Participating hotels include such upscale properties as The Grace Hotel and Meriton World Tower in Sydney and Palazzo Versace, Q1 and Watermark on the Gold Coast.

“With more than 100,000 hotel rooms around Australia now empty every night, innovative properties are super keen to put bums in beds via the controlled discounts we facilitate, while the corporate market is now seeking the lowest possible deals more aggressively than ever which is why traffic on Ubid4rooms.com has swelled in recent months,” Berman added.
