I always book direct with hotels
start emailing for prices & room type availability
ask them about there deposit required & cancellation policy. Most of the time you need to provide credit card details to secure a room. They usually just hold your details & when you check in or out you can choose how to pay (cash, cc. I only ever provide CC number, name & expiry not the security number on the back of the card. Check no money is blocked on your C/C.
Check if breakfast is included or airport transfers, just some added cost you then can avoid.
You will probably have to supply flight details as well so they know to hold the room for late arrivals.

Once you have a reply check over all the details including dates very carefully. If you fly out late at night, early morn you may want to book the room for an extra night so you can use the room to rest or shower before leaving for the airport.Also find out the check in & check out times.
Its not to hard & any queries can usually be sorted out with the hotel if not the BTF are always here to help.

I have not booked through Asia Rooms but many on here have.
