Kdyz ty prijdes do hotelu v cizi zemi, tak mas na cele napsano velkymi pismeny JSEM CUDZINKA a neznam mistni zvyklosti a proto zaplatim co nejvic a podle toho se k tobe chovaji

Omyl, nie vzdy ked prides do hotela, motela v USA dostanes izbu so zlavou alebo si ju vymodlikas. Mozes dodatocne dostat 10 % zlavu ak sa preukazes ze si dochodca, pripadne clen nejakeho klubu, AAA ARPR?, ktory ma dohodu s hotelom kde si stravil noc.
Radovan Pletka Mar 2, 2005:
V USA nikdo neplati rack rate, vzdycky lze vyjednat nejakou slevu. Evropa se zda byt mene flexibilni v cenach, ale vetsi konkurence tento problem vyresi. Rack rate je ekvivalent to Sticker price na aute, ktera je v US nalepena na skle od vyrobce.

The standard rate for a room in a hotel; also known as the walk-in rate.

hotelova cena bez zlavy

A Rack Rate is the rate a hotel would offer you if you approched them directly (does not mean when walks -in ). These are rates, which have not beed discounted.

disagree Radovan Pletka : check http://www.juniorhotel.sk/index.htm a podivej se na anglickou verzi a na definice vyse. Nobody pays rack rate in US.

Ty si precitaj najskor definiciu, ktora je pod www. londonn a potom sa ma snaz presvedcit o tom ci v USA ludia platia rack rate, co nebola povodna myslienka. Ak prides do hotela s nadejou ze najdes volnu izbu, to neznamena ze je automaticky so zlavou.
