How to compare places to stay

  • Location wording can be loose, so open the map and measure the distance yourself.
  • Read what the rate includes, such as breakfast, an all-inclusive plan, parking or airport pickup.
  • Check when payment is taken: at booking, before arrival or at the property.
  • Scores are averages over time, so read the newest reviews for the current picture.
  • Some charges are collected at check-in; the rate details list them.
  • Arrival after reception closes usually has to be agreed in advance.
  • Check the bed setup and maximum occupancy of the room type, especially with children.
  • Look at the final total with taxes and charges, not only the nightly figure in the search results.
  • See the free-cancellation date on the rate, if it has one, before you commit.

Before you book

  • Note the provider's deadline for free changes, if it offers one, in your calendar.
  • Allow time between booking and travel for confirmation to arrive.
  • If you need step-free access or other help, ask the provider first.
  • Take screenshots of the offer and terms at the time of booking.
  • Prices on provider sites change with dates and demand, so compare on the same day for the same dates.
