When making a hotel reservation you will often find a wide selection of room and rate types. It is important to take note of all the information here to ensure you are choosing the most suitable option. 

Some key areas to look out for include:

  • Best Rooms vs Room Types: 'Best Rooms Options' will show you the top two recommended options by price. 'View by Room Options' shows you the different room types (twin, double etc.) and all the available rates for each type.

  • Cancellation conditions: Flexible rates will have a green banner showing the last date for free cancellations. More details can be found by checking More Details.

  • Payment type: Each room will show if they are pre-paid rates or pay on check-out rates.

  • Inclusions: Any inclusions such as breakfast will be shown next to each option.

  • Hotel Provider: You may see rates from Expedia or Booking.com. These can offer some good savings but are often more restrictive.
