HotelReservations.com Review

By Nick December 17, 2006

The following is a paid review:

HotelReservations.com is a online travel booking website which prides itself, like most travel sites, on low rates and helpful travel tools to help customers plan their trips.

First, and most importantly, I tested their claim to offer the cheapest prices. After a quick comparison with Expedia regarding hotel prices in Amsterdam, I found Hotel Reservations to have low nightly rates that are very comparable to Expedia.com.

Hotel Reservations also returned a large number of results, which is always good to allow customers to have a wide selection.In addition to their obvious offering of hotel reservations, Hotel Reservations.com also offers affordable flights, car rentals, vacation rentals, and vacation packages on par with the standard industry budget travel rates.

Another feature of Hotel Reservations is its toll free booking over the phone. If you are old school, hate the internet, and/or prefer “actually talking to someone,” Hotel Reservations can accommodate you.

I tested their toll free calling system by telling the agent I was looking for a hotel in Miami. He handled my call in a very standard fashion, and was able to answer my questions correctly (I checked his answers online myself during the call).

The only drawback of Hotel Reservations is its design, which could be simply described as bland. Its older design is also a little harder to navigate than more modern travel booking sites. One example is choosing departure and arrival dates. It tends to be a little more of a hassle with Hotel Reservations compared to the big travel sites like Expedia, Travelocity, and Orbitz. Those larger sites have the nifty “interactive” pop up calendar that makes dates a breeze.

So if you are looking to book a hotel, vacation rental, flight, or car for your travels, HotelReservations.com seems like a reliable online or phone booking agent to satisfy your needs.
