This is a price chart for the price of a hotel room in a specific hotel. It shows the price per night per room. The stair like pattern starts at Mondays most of the time, with decreasing prices towards the weekend.We have this price information for bascially all hotels and apartments in our country, updated daily and it shows very interesting patterns depending on where the hotel is. Also: I found that there are hotels with a relatively stable pricing and then there are others which have a very dynamic pricing.Question to you: would you find such a chart useful during your booking process and could it influence the arrival/departure time when you know where to look for the cheapest offers?

@louis > "would you find such a chart useful during your booking process and could it influence the arrival/departure time when you know where to look for the cheapest offers?"Only when booking a vacation for myself. When I book a vacation, I have a choice of the days on which I can go (I can arrange to take paid leave). For everything else, like business trips or trips to visit family, I usually have no control over the schedule and I'd have to take what is available.

@louisOnly if you can guarantee the validity of the data. Otherwise I would be rightfully convinced they try to deceive my decisive-making process.

@louis absolutely. I’ve noticed in the last 6 months the cost of a hotel in Birmingham (England) city centre for 2 weeks’ time has shot up significantly. It’d be so useful to quantify this to understand when prices begin to climb, so I know when best to make a reservation

@louis I would find it incredibly useful.
