A provider is shown on a place page only where its coverage of that place, its airport or its country is on record.

How to compare places to stay

  • Use the site's map to check the distance to the places you plan to visit.
  • The same room can be sold room-only or with meals, so read the board type.
  • Some rates charge your card at once and others at check-in; the rate details say which.
  • Recent reviews tell you more than the overall score; sort by date where you can.
  • Check resort fees or local tourist taxes that are paid at the property and not in the online total.
  • If you arrive late at night, confirm the property's reception hours.
  • Check the bed setup and maximum occupancy of the room type, especially with children.
  • Carry the comparison through to the payment page, where taxes and fees appear on some sites.
  • Check whether the rate is refundable and until when, because the lowest rate is often the least flexible.

Before you book

  • A name mismatch can cause trouble at the desk, so copy it from your document.
  • Pay on the provider's secure checkout and be wary of requests to pay outside it.
  • Compare what is included before comparing the price, since two offers rarely cover the same thing.
  • Government travel advice can change; read it when booking and before departure.
  • Note the provider's deadline for free changes, if it offers one, in your calendar.

5: Stay22, Booking.com, Trip.com Hotels, Expedia and Hotels.com. Each qualifies through an active link and verified coverage in Aurum's partner database.

Who holds my reservation?

No. Aurum is an affiliate guide; rooms are booked on the provider's own site.

Is places to stay coverage the same everywhere?

No. 5 of the 5 providers here are recorded as worldwide; the rest are verified for named countries or places. The "Where" line on each card states it.

Are places to stay prices listed on Aurum?

On the provider's site. Aurum lists providers and where their coverage is verified; the provider gives the price for your dates.

How do I change or cancel a stay?

That depends on the provider's terms for the offer you chose. They are shown at checkout and in your confirmation. Aurum cannot change a booking, because it holds none.

How early should I look at places to stay?

Availability and prices are set by each provider and move with demand. If your dates are fixed, compare early and check each offer's free-cancellation terms, so a booking can still be changed.

What does the Where line on a card mean?

The area the partner database records as verified for that provider: worldwide, a country, or named places and airports. The provider's own site confirms whether your exact location is included.

Why is a provider I have used missing from this page?

It may not be an Aurum partner, or its coverage of this place may not be recorded yet. The points on this page apply to any places to stay provider you compare, listed here or not.

Is this page advice?

No. It is information, not a recommendation. Your own needs decide, the provider confirms the specifics, and professional questions belong with a qualified adviser.

How does a provider get listed for places to stay on Aurum?

Those with an active link and verified coverage on record for the page. A provider without recorded coverage for a place is left off that place's page.

Does booking through a link here cost more?

A booking made after following a link may earn Aurum a commission from the provider, without changing your price. The provider sets price, availability and terms, and shows them on its site.

Who do I contact about a booking?

Only the provider can change a booking, so contact it directly. Aurum holds no bookings.
