Hotel Tracker checks the current rate for your tracked stay automatically, once a day. That is the same on every plan — Free, Gold and Platinum. When the rate falls below your target, you get an email alert from info@hotel-tracker.com.
The same frequency on every plan
Every plan includes automatic price checks and email alerts. The check runs once a day — on the Free plan and on both paid plans alike. What the paid plans change is how many hotels you can track at once, plus price-history charts and priority support. The current limits for each plan are listed on the pricing page.
Why not check every minute?
Hotel rates move day to day, not minute to minute. Hotels use dynamic pricing: they adjust rates based on how full they expect to be on your dates, and those adjustments happen over days and weeks. A daily check catches every meaningful drop without flooding your inbox with noise. The rates themselves come from Google Hotels metasearch data — more on that in Where do hotel prices come from?
What you receive between checks
Nothing, unless something changes. If a check finds the rate still above your target, no email goes out. If the rate falls below your target, you get one alert from info@hotel-tracker.com with the new rate and a booking link — what to do with it is covered in What happens after a price-drop alert?
That is the core of Hotel Tracker: hotel price alert and rebooking guidance. You set the target once, the checks run on their own, and you only hear from us when a price is worth looking at. For the full process from setup to alert, see how it works.
