- Book a hotel with an in-suite kitchen. One of the biggest expenses during extended travel is eating out for every meal. Avoid this unnecessary expense by booking a hotel with a kitchen in every room. Then you can cook your own meals or store leftovers.
- Extend your stay to enjoy greater savings on nightly rates. When you book at an extended stay hotel like Extended Stay America, you can often increase your savings per night by increasing your length of stay. When you stay 7+ nights, save up to 20% on nightly rates. However, if you stay 30+ nights, your savings increase to up to 45% on nightly rates.*
- Book direct. Whether booking hotels, airlines or rental cars, you can often find the best rate on the company website. Avoid booking on third parties that don’t offer flexible cancellation, best rate guarantee and member rewards program benefits. When you book at esa.com, you can rest easy knowing you will always get the best rate guaranteed.
- Create a rainy-day fund for your trip. No one likes to plan for emergencies, but it’s not a bad idea to set aside a little extra money for your extended trip so if an unexpected expense emerges, you are prepared.
- Join free rewards programs. Many companies offer rewards programs to help save money. For example, Extended Stay America has Extended Perks, a free rewards program that offers all members an exclusive member rate, free perks and instant savings at national retailers.
