Book for hotel rooms through the internet

My friend booked a hotel room for me in Philaphedia, United states. The room rate was USD 309 a night. I found this to be too expensive.

I checked the internet and found a room at the same hotel to be USD 160 a night.

I checked with my friend. Apparently, the hotel quoted a higher rate to his company, but offered a lower rate in the internet, on a non-cancellable basis.

Lesson: If you are willing to be committed to a non-cancelleable booking, it is better to book through the internet and enjoy a lower hotel rate.
