Pls. recommend a safe, good and reasonably priced NZ hotel booking web?

Question

If such web permits customers to pay only when check-in/out (with credit card details obtained as guarantee) and has a clear cancellation policy (e.g. how many days in advance cancelling the booking is not subject to any penalty), it will be best !!

Answer 2

Most of these types of service require you to pay in advance - but not all - you need to click thru the individual hotels and check their terms.  Id advise you not book until you are sure of your dates - you will get a better price a few weeks prior anyway.

I've used the link below myself and have been happy with them - though I havent had to cancel a booking

I was going to say www.wotif.com, as they are very reliable and have good last minute rates, but I think you have to pay up front.

Better to find the hotel you wish to stay at and book direct on their website. We have booked through http://www.mirvachotels.com/ to stay in Australia and they have two great hotels in NZ.  They take a credit card as a guarantee and you pay when you check out. You can cancel your booking up to 24 hours before you arrive without losing a deposit or one nights accommodation charge.

I agree with you and have learnt it is better not to pay in advance as you may not get a refund if you have to change your booking.
