Frequently Asked Questions |
Q1 How do I
make a reservation?
Enter your
accommodation requirements in our search box (use the advanced search box for
more options), then select the hotel you want to stay in from our results
listings and press "Book" next to the chosen hotel. You will be taken to a
Room Selection screen and then to our Secure Reservations Form. On the form,
just complete all the information required.
For more details see our
How To Book section
Q2 How long
does it take to make a reservation?
About 3 minutes.
Q3
Can I make a reservation directly through the hotel?
You can, but the prices
displayed on our sites are available only through our
service. If you make a reservation with the hotel, you will be charged on
average 10% to 40% more.
Q4 When do
you check availability?
We check availability
when you press the "Search" button: you will get a listing of hotels that are
available to book and comply with your search criteria: just press "Book" next
to your chosen hotel to make a reservation.
Should you wish to request any hotel that is not available you can do so by
pressing the "Request" button: you will be put on a waiting list and, should a
room become available, a reservation will be made for you and you will be
notified via e-mail.
We may also offer you alternative hotels with comparable rates and facilities:
you have the right to refuse our choice at no cost to you. Please remember
that by combining "availability check" and "reservation" into one step, we cut
on our cost of operations and thus we can offer you much cheaper prices and
save you time.
Q5 Are
taxes, services and breakfast included in your prices?
All taxes and services
are included. Breakfast is included in most 2/3 star hotels (unless noted
otherwise), but 4 star hotels usually do not include breakfast. To see if and
what type of breakfast is included just click the button marked "Meal Info" on
each hotel result.
Q6 Are your
prices by room or by person?
All prices in our
service are per room, not per person. For example, a price for a single
means a room with one person, for a double means a room with 2 persons, etc.
Q7 How do I
know my reservation is confirmed?
You will get instant
on-screen confirmation of your booking (which you can print if you wish). We

in the "My Account" section.

You may be able to

Q24 How can
you offer rooms at such discounted prices?
Using our connections with hoteliers we know (as we were hoteliers ourselves)
paired with the volume of business we produce, we have negotiated these
favourable rates.
Q25 Do you
offer additional discounts for senior citizens, students, airline employees,
etc.?
No. You will find that our prices are already heavily discounted;
consequently, we cannot offer any additional discounts, but for long stays we
will be able to get back to you with even better rates.
Q26 Can I
check in earlier than the check in time?
We provide you with the
time of guaranteed check in on each hotel information page. Early check in is
subject to availability on the day of arrival and depends on how many rooms
were occupied on the previous night.
Q27 Can I
check out later than check out time?
Most of the hotels
(subject to availability) will allow, usually without charge extended check
out until midday. However most of the hotels will charge for any extended stay
past midday, unless otherwise agreed with hotel reception/front desk.
Q28 Can I
leave my bags at the hotel?
Yes, you can leave your
luggage with the reception or in the luggage room until your room is ready.
Most of the hotels will extend the same facilities at the check out, however
some of the hotels may request a small charge.
Q29 Can I
see pictures of the hotel and hotel rooms?
Yes, we provide
you with pictures for each hotel advertised on our site on the hotel
information page. Please be aware that the hotel room photos are only a depiction of the type of
rooms on offer and may not represent the actual room described.

I inform the hotel of my special requests?
We cannot guarantee any
special requests, however each booking form will provide you with a special
field for any information you wish a hotel to be aware of. All you special
information will be forwarded to the hotel on request, not guarantee basis and
the hotel will do their up most to satisfy your needs.
