Our “Book a Hotel” tool makes it easy to find a great hotel deal
We’ve made it easier than ever to see more for less.
We love asking “Where will you go next?” and then showing you how to seal the deal, pack your bags, and go. Our Book a Hotel tool (see the button on the top right of this page) literally puts the world at your fingertips, helping you to research and book hotels, motels, B&Bs, and other lodging anywhere in the world through our partners at Booking.com. Here are five easy steps to nabbing a good deal anywhere, anytime.
1. Choose a destination and your travel dates
On the upper left of our book-a-hotel page, you’ll find a box where you can enter the name of the destination you’re thinking of visiting and your check-in and check-out dates. You may enjoy trying to stump the database, but you’ll soon find that it can find you lodging just about anywhere, from Mali to Maui, from Bali for Birmingham.
2. Review lodging options
Hit “Search” and a list of available lodgings will appear (in rare cases, a destination such as a small town or remote park will offer only one or two nearby lodgings, but typically you’ll get quite a list to choose from). You can choose to view lodgings by price, or view the database’s top picks, which represent properties that are frequently booked and have been well-reviewed by customers. (Top picks may be especially desirable if you’re visiting an area that’s new to you or where you’ll be unfamiliar with the language or customs.)
3. Get a little picky
We encourage you to push the database to suit your needs, employing the menu on the lower left of the hotel listings. You can filter for common factors such as price range, complimentary breakfast, free Wi-Fi, kitchen, swimming pool, and more.
4. Read reviews and the fine print
The listing of lodgings gives preference to frequently booked and well-reviewed properties, so you may not need to go deep into user reviews. But reviews are ample if you choose to take a peek. You’ll also want to review a property’s “fine print” and policies regarding children, smoking, pets, and other important details.
5. Reserve your room
You may especially love how quickly you can select and reserve your room, and you will not be asked for banking or credit card information, simply your name and email address. Yup, our booking tool is that easy, and we hope it makes it a little easier to answer that question we started with: “Where will you go next?”
