Christmas in July: 30% Off National Parks Hotel Bookings
If you’ve ever tried to plan a trip including a stay at a national park hotel, you probably realized what I just learned this year. The more popular national park hotels sell out months in advance (more on that travel planning fail soon) and the rooms are not cheap. Because of high demand, the hotels don’t need to offer discounts.
But apparently there are a few sales — I just got an email letting me know about Xanterra’s Christmas in July sale offering 30% off at select park locations. Sharing in case it is useful for anyone else planning a trip. You’ll need to book by July 27 and use promo code XMASJULY to receive the discounted rate. Most bookings require full payment in advance but a full refund up until 2-3 days before your stay. Note: I do not receive compensation for any bookings, just sharing! 🙂
