WRONG! You've obviously have NEVER stayed at the
Four Seasons The
Four Seasons openly offer discounts or work with 3rd party sites like priceline, they are known for standing their ground on rates which is the appeal to many that don't have to scrounge to get a room. In other words they (
Four Seasons) prefer cheapskates go elsewhere.
Now I am not saying corporate accounts don't exist or that the rate is fixed for ever. What I am saying is the rate is the rate and it is NOT easily negotiable to the general public.
