Andaz Amsterdam Prinsengracht opening this October

Dying to staying at that new, trendy hotel but it’s booked?  To cover yourself, first book another hotel (that’s almost as fabulous) that you can cancel.  Check with a travel agent or online reservation websites, such as Expedia.com and Travelocity.com, as they are often sold blocks of rooms by many hotels. You can also call the hotel’s local number (not the 800 number) as they are first to know of cancellations and room availability. Often times popular hotels will have a waiting list too so be sure to ask the reservationist or manager about it. Still no luck? Join the hotel’s rewards program and call back closer to your travel date to see what they can do for you…and don’t forget, once you do get the hotel you want, cancel your back up accommodations!
