as title says as I booked a room last year for this year, the price last year was 600,000 Rp a night and I was told that the rates would most likely go up( which I do get!!). I just find out they have increased their rates by 250,000 Rp a night which for me is a little steep when travelling on a budget. Increase of $28.50 Australian. Do you think it's acceptable to negotiate a rate with the hotel? or are the advertsied rates set in concrete? Thanks. I'm not a scrooge but $28.50 a day over 1 week adds up.
