Hotel Reservations Network, a lodging discounter, has launched a Web site for booking luxury hotels, https://www.allluxuryhotels.com, with several hundred listings. The general HRN site for all hotels is https://www.hoteldiscount.com. Travel industry experts say more luxury lodgings are offering discounts because of a slump in business....
