Hotel Negotiation Glossary

Key terms every group travel negotiator should know.

Group Rate

A discounted hotel room rate negotiated for a block of 10+ rooms. Group rates are typically 15–40% below the Best Available Rate (BAR). hotelHaggle's competitive bidding process drives these rates even lower as hotels vie for your business.

Also known as: negotiated rate, block rate, corporate rate

Competitive Bidding

A process where multiple hotels submit proposals for the same group request, driving rates down as they compete. hotelHaggle sends your RFP to every matching hotel simultaneously and presents side-by-side proposals so you can pick the best deal.

Also known as: reverse auction, rate bidding, hotel RFP competition

RFP — Request for Proposal

A formal request sent to hotels describing your group's dates, room count, budget, and requirements. Hotels respond with detailed proposals including rates, terms, and concessions. One hotelHaggle RFP replaces 50 individual phone calls.

Also known as: RFP, request for quote, group travel inquiry

BAR — Best Available Rate

The lowest publicly available room rate a hotel offers for a given date. Group rates are negotiated as a percentage discount below BAR. Knowing the BAR helps you evaluate whether a group proposal is genuinely competitive.

Also known as: rack rate, published rate, standard rate

Attrition Clause

A contract provision setting the minimum percentage of the room block your group must fill. If actual bookings fall below the attrition threshold, you may owe a penalty. hotelHaggle helps you negotiate favorable attrition terms before signing.

Also known as: performance clause, slippage clause, minimum commitment

Concession

A perk or benefit included beyond the room rate — complimentary suite upgrades, free breakfast, waived resort fees, or flexible check-in/out times. Concessions add real value and are a key negotiation lever in hotelHaggle's bidding process.

Also known as: added value, group perk, hotel incentive
