Some hotel make discount specially if you're booking directly. Expedia and such are just useful as browser. If I can't book directly, I avoid the hotel

And some do parity checks to be sure they are priced similarly across all 3rd parties. But apparently booking has an outsized influence on what discounts you can apply compared to what you advertise through booking.
