I think you must add the parameters in two additional fields for the intended arrival date. After this we will have enouth parametres for all type of discounts
(because date of reservation and date of arrival in hotels is diffrent)

Valid from
Valid to
- for date of booking

From ... days
To ... days
- for amound of days (staying in hotel)

Arival date from
Arival date to
- for period of staying in hotel

All of discounts works because we know date of booking (now) and date which intresing guest for stay at the hotel

We set date of out offer (discount), then set date for period - on which discount must be available, and the minimal (maximal) days for guest stay at the hotel.

In this case, we get an interesting combination options for diffrent discounts (ffor example, for early booking with minimal 3 days of stay).

- Discount on the length of stay (night or day): this type is useful when you want to create discount like "Discount 10% for guest who stay from 7 days to 14 days".
- Discount on the number of booked room: for example "Discount 20% for guest who book more than 3 rooms."
- Discount on the number of days booked in advance: for example "Discount 15% if guest book at least 30 days before arrival"
- Discount on the room type availability: this discount can be used to automatically give discount according to your room type availability, for example "Discount 10% if our Double Room has 70% free rooms; Discount 5% if our Double Room has 30% free rooms."

If we add separate additional fields
From ... rooms
To ... rooms
- for amount of rooms

we will get more combination options

i think - may be a lot of discounts - and (like with complex tarif) we show the minimal price
on first - before choice amount of rooms - we show discount №1 for dates that we know and rooms=1
on second - when we choice ammount of rooms (but we evaluate amount selected rooms for all rooms type) - we correct discount №2 (if it is) for dates that we know and rooms>1

But - the basic to keep - to point the proper price with discount on the frontend!!!
