Eurobookings.com Travel Site Review

By Nick March 10, 2007

Eurobookings The following is a paid review:

Eurobookings.com is a European hotel reservations site that includes hotels over most of Europe, including the major destinations like Paris, France, Amsterdam, and London.

They seem like a pretty solid online booking service, with a plethora of European hotel options. The site is very clean, not overloaded with graphics, and simple to navigate. It’s also got every feature needed to book a hotel room: Reviews, ratings, popularity, hotels near by, map, photos, descriptions, currency converter and language options. Like I said, everything.

But now for what you really want to know about: Price. Eurobookings prides themselves on being cheaper than hotels.co.uk. Well, I put that to a quick test by comparing prices for Hotel Concorde La Fayette in Paris, France. After a few conversions, Eurobookings definitely was cheaper. Here are links to the prices compared:

One notable aspect, unlike booking hotels online at Expedia or Hotels.com, is that Eurobookings does not require you to pay for your hotel room upfront at your checkout. Instead, you pay once you stay there, so you keep your money in pocket. Definitely cool. Here’s the text from the website:

Flexible payment
We request no payments in advance and will not charge your credit card. Your credit card is only required to guarantee your booking. Therefore you can keep your money in your pocket until you pay for your stay at the hotel by all the usual forms of payment.

No surprises
The reservation service of Eurobookings is free of charge. So therefore no additional fees are added to the room price, nor will we be charging you a cancellation fee.

So drawbacks? Well, when simply booking hotels, there are none. If you’re looking to book travel packages, however, you will need to use other booking services, since Eurobookings doesn’t offer flights or car hires. Also, if they offered hostel bookings, the service would be that much better.

But Eurobookings is a solid online booking website that caters to any travelers looking to get a good hotel rate across the pond.
