Book With Us
Book a hotel we've stayed at. No fee to you.
You're not booking off a search result. You're booking with two people who've slept in the room, eaten the breakfast and paid the bill, and who'll tell the hotel what you need before you get there.
How it works
Three steps, and nothing is booked until you say so
- 1

Use the request form. If you're reading one of our reviews, the hotel is filled in for you.

We check rates and perks
We tell you the rate, the perks the hotel offers, and what we'd ask for from our own stay, before you commit.
- 3
We book and brief the hotel
We book through our host agency and pass your preferences to the hotel, so they know who's arriving and what you need.
Your benefits
What you get when you book through us
The same room at the same hotel, with two people who've stayed there working on your side.

Perks at the hotel
Extras the hotel adds for our guests
Bookings through our host agency can come with advisor perks.
- Daily breakfast for two
- A hotel credit
- An upgrade on arrival, if available
- Early check-in or late check-out, if available
Where offered; varies by hotel and never guaranteed. We tell you exactly what applies before you book.

Your requests, passed on
The hotel knows what you need before you arrive
We've learned what makes a stay work. We ask the hotel for it on your behalf.
- Quiet floor
- Away from lifts and ice machines
- A proper desk
- Laundry
- A fridge
- Dietary needs

Advice from our own stay
We've slept in the room
We tell you which room category to book, what to ask for and what to skip, from our own nights there and the receipts in our review. Not from a search result.

No fee to you
You pay the hotel's rate, nothing on top
We don't charge a booking fee. We may be compensated by travel suppliers when you book through us, at no extra cost to you.
Your status
Will I still get my Hyatt, IHG or Marriott status benefits and points?
It depends on the brand and rate. We'll tell you before you book.
Your status and our advisor perks may work together on some brands; we'll tell you which.
