Step 1. Need to find a good hotel?
The first aim's to find a top establishment, within your budget, then to try to get it as cheaply as possible. If you already know where you want to stay, jump to step two. If not, read below.
Step 2. Check the hotel's own price

Trivago
Newcomer Trivago takes just a few seconds to sift through 1,000s of hotels' prices, scraping 107 brokers and hotel chains. It's simple, fun to use and you can drill down your search by star, user rating or hotel facilities.
If you know which hotel you want, just plug the name into the box on the left and it quickly locates the cheapest price for that establishment.
The site displays potential 'savings' in red, although bear in mind discounts are against the most expensive broker's price, which could be abnormally high. (Travel geeks will be fascinated to see how big-name brokers profit by as much as doubling hotels' standard prices.)

Tripadvisor
If you're using Tripadvisor*, you can also do quick comparisons while viewing hotels. The UK site shows prices in pounds.
Rather than showing a results page, Tripadvisor makes different brokers' pages pop up in new windows, so comparing's harder. It searches far fewer brokers than the others, usually only about four or five.
