Readers recommend: Booking.com for last-minute hotel reservations

My partner and I recently spent two weeks driving around Europe. We often arrived in towns without hotel reservations. A simple solution: If you have an iPad or other Internet connection, go to https://www.booking.com. Look for hotels in your price and/or facilities range, book the hotel and use your Internet connection for directions. We used this process in Budapest, Hungary, and Salzburg, Austria. Once we arrived at the hotel before the front desk had the opportunity to read the booking email.
