Hotel Savings for my upcoming Hong Kong trip

My first family trip for 2017 was finally confirmed with 6 adults and 1 baby (my nephew) to Hong Kong this coming February.

Now comes the headache which is to search for Hong Kong hotels. As we all know, Hong Kong hotels are really expensive as compared to other country and their hotel rooms are small. I usually used trivago to help in my hotel search. However, this time round, my sis-in-law recommended Agoda for cheaper hotel prices.

We decided to search for a hotel in the Mongkok area instead of the Hong Kong Island as Mongkok has a lot more cheap shopping areas. The hotel we will be staying is Holiday Inn Mongkok. The prices I found for 3 double rooms for 5 nights as follows:

1)  Trivago cheapest rates via Bookings.com : $2,493
2)  Agoda non-member rates: $2,442
3)  Agoda member rates: $2,379

Agoda offers much cheaper rates when you sign up as their member.
Do Click Here to access Agoda and search for your hotels for the best competitive rates.

In addition to the Agoda rates, I am able to earn cashback from the hotel booking through Shopback. When you spend through Shopback, you received a portion of your purchase as Cashback from participating vendors. Agoda is one of their participating vendor and they gave 6% cashback for every completed stay. If I clicked through Agoda link via Shopback and completed the purchase, a pending cashback of $142 (6% of $2,379) will be in my Shopback account and becomes redeemable after I complete my hotel stay on 28 Feb. I will be able to withdraw the cashback to my bank account.

In total, we only paid $2,237 or $372/Pax for a 6D5N Holiday Inn Mongkok stay in Hong Kong.

You can also earn cashback via other online travel vendors such as Expedia, Bookings.com, Hotels.com, Singapore Airlines etc.
