Does Booking.com have "Secret Deals" or other promotional offers for traveling?
I know most similar platforms have some secret deals and ways to earn extra discounts when traveling frequently, which is why I was wondering if anybody here knows more about this website's promotional offers. Could I find coupons online, or is there anything special I'd need to do for better deals? For example, do they have a newsletter I could subscribe to that might offer some promo codes without spamming me to death? Thanks for any tips.Asked a month ago

Can you use Booking.com to book a trip to multiple destinations?
I'd like to visit a few different places in one long trip, so I was curious to know if I could use Booking.com for that. Would it really count as one trip, or is each destination its own smaller "trip," if you get what I mean? I hope I'm not overthinking this, but it's my first time traveling through Booking.com, so I'm still figuring out the details.Asked a month ago

Is there a rewards or loyalty program for frequent travelers on Booking.com?
I am very passionate about traveling - I go somewhere new at least once every few months. Of course, this isn't exactly cheap, which is why I'm always looking for additional ways to reduce my expenses. Basically, I am looking for an agency/company/platform that rewards its most loyal travelers. A coworker suggested I look into Booking.com, but I can't see much about rewards on their website. Could you tell me more about their loyalty reward system, assuming they do have one? Asked a month ago

Does Hotels.com offer cashback rewards?
I've used Hotels.com a few times before, but I must admit I never paid much attention to rewards, until a friend mentioned to me that there is something called "cashback" rewards and directed me to this site? How exactly does it work, is it just free money? And how much cash would I even get back? Thanks for replying.Asked a month ago

Can I use Hotels.com to book a hotel room for a business trip to Manhattan?
I have a business trip coming up next week, so I was wondering if I could use Hotels.com for booking a hotel room and if I could pay from the corporate account. I am also looking for a hotel that is near the city center, with lots of essential amenities nearby, as I probably won't be doing much sightseeing. Price isn't as important as location and reliability. Knowing my requirements, would you say Hotels.com is a good choice for business-related trips in terms of hotel options and available payment methods?Asked a month ago

Hey all. I recently came across this website, and so far, it looks quite useful.

Should I book through Hotels.com or directly through the hotel's website?
I'm mostly interested in personal experiences, as I tend to be very skeptical about reviews that are on official websites. Do you prefer booking via Hotels.com, or do you usually find the hotel you like, go to the website of your preferred hotel, and book through them directly? I've done both in the past, so I don't really see the difference...is there any?Asked a month ago

Does Hotels.com have a loyalty program?
I'm looking for an OTA that has a good loyalty program, as I've been traveling a lot recently - and will probably continue doing so for the foreseeable future. I am quite skilled at finding good deals, but still, a good rewards program can definitely make a difference. I don't know much about Hotels.com, though, it was simply recommended to me by a tourist I met during one of my vacations. I've thought about checking it out, but before I do, I want to know if it has what I need. So, does Hotels.com have a good loyalty reward system? If it does, how do I apply?Asked a month ago

Have you ever used Hotels.com to book a vacation package with flights and car rental?
This might sound like an odd question to ask but basically, I want to go on a long trip on my own. My itinerary includes a short road trip, traveling by plane, and staying at a hotel. A whole package, pretty much. I was told that Hotels.com offers all that I need, but I want to ask if somebody has done something similar. How did it go? Did you have any issues booking all the things you needed? Do you think it is a good idea to book vacation packages with flights and car rentals from Hotels.com, or should I book everything separately instead?Asked a month ago

How does Hotels.com handle bookings for large groups or events?
Hello all. My fiancé and I have decided to have our wedding in Italy, and we want it to be a part of a big vacation that includes our loved ones as well. Altogether, there should be about 50 people or so. Needless to say, it's a huge event for us, and although some "surprises" are expected, we would still like everything to go as smoothly as possible. So, with all of that in mind, do you think organizing this event through Hotels.com is a good idea? Has anybody done anything similar? Do you have any helpful tips to share? Thank you.Asked a month ago
