Do you already have a reservation?

• What is a third-party hotel vendor?

  Third-party vendors are any service or advertiser that is not directly sourced from the hotel. There are hundreds of these services. They use Global Distribution Systems (GDS) where hotels voluntarily place inventory and rates to resale. The GDS are designed to give third-party vendors full capabilities to book rooms. They include companies like Costco Travel, American Express Travel; advertisers like Hotwire.com, Getaroom.com, and many others, and also thousands of small businesses, including local, independent travel agents.

  We can make some updates or corrections to our sites, but we are limited because we use the information provided by hotels to the online travel agencies. We are not able to turn off inventory for specific hotels independently.

• How can I add or make a change to my hotel logo on your site?

• How do your call centers help customers and act independent from the hotel?

  We maintain 24/7 sales and support through email and phone. We employ only the friendliest agents, who are among the most trained in the travel industry. Thorough education and phone call scripts require agents to educate callers about who they are and that they do not represent the hotel. We record and perform quality checks with all of our phone agents. They sign an agreement of understanding to follow our standards. If an agent deliberately misrepresents as acting for the hotel, the agent is terminated without warning.

• How do you help hotels?

  We help hotels show up on the right search results at the right time, every time. Our proprietary technology pushes beyond conventional standards, helping hotels maximize ROI and increase sales by providing them with the information they need, including cross-channel availability and pricing insights, to achieve greater visibility and reach the right customers.

• Can customers get better deals by booking with the hotel directly?

  We help hotels reach customers they could not reach otherwise.
