Either will work, Kate. If you still think he might consult about hotels with you, then use 'hasn't'.

Does she know anyone in town?
Yes, she does. No, she doesn't.
Do you mind if I stay here tonight?
Yes, i do. No, I don't.

Btw, you really should say "Did Peter consult with you about hotels". I'm afraid "consult hotels" isn't good. But you can say "consult Peter about hotels" (ask Peter's advice regarding hotels), which is different from "consult with Peter" (suggests that Peter and you discuss about hotels).
