FYI......checking rates for the Delta Ottawa for Nov 13 and this is a great example of CPSA member rates.

For Nov 13 at Delta Ottawa....CPSA rate is $155 (50% off Best Available) for Basic Mode Room... vs. Book & Board rate $309 vs. CAA $279 vs. Last Minute $294 vs. Hotels.com $309 vs. Web saver $294... Good news is if you are Plat+ you can lock in the $235 CPSA rate Mode Suite Club room at time of booking. If not for CPSA this location would be priced to high for my spend limits and passed over.

CPSA is not always the best rate but often very useful in high traffic business locations when doing price checks prior to booking. Sometimes you could pay for the annual CPSA membership with one nights saving's.

In contrast the more recreational properties tend to restrict business/sale rates.
