Q. What's the lowest price I can get a room for?
A. Our E-Specials are always the best rate you can get at our hotel. If our Internet E-Special rates are not available it ususally means that the hotel is close to selling out or it is a very busy time. All our rates are guaranteed to be the lowest, its a Holiday Inn requirement.
Q. What's the difference between reserving a room on www.himb.com and reserving a room on Expedia or Hotels.com?
A. When you reserve a room with www.himb.com, you reserve with the hotel directly and your reservation is processed immediately. The booking number you recieve in your email is the booking number the hotel has. When you reserve with a 3rd party, such as Expedia or Hotels.com, your reservation must get processed with them first and then get processed with the hotel itself. In order to cancel, you must cancel with the 3rd party, not the hotel.
