Why connect to Hotels.com?
Hotels.com is part of the Expedia network and specialises in offering accommodation services through its network of localised websites. It is a well-advertised travel brand, connecting people all over the world and excelling at targeting last-minute holidaymakers, families, and business travelers.
Hotels.com runs targeted advertising campaigns and acts as a shop window to countless potential visitors. It also runs the popular ‘One Key’ loyalty program and features extensive guest reviews that help other visitors find the most suitable accommodation for a given destination, whether they’re traveling for business or leisure.
Hotels.com has been a forerunner in the development of an award-winning mobile app version of their site to meet the growing demand for guests who book ‘on the move’.
If you have rooms to sell, Hotels.com is the ideal platform for international exposure.
So why not advertise your property on Hotels.com?
FAQs
Hotels.com offers unrivaled coverage as well as a vast affiliate network on which your property will be listed. They also operate a unified loyalty program across many of their group sites, allowing members to earn and redeem One Key reward cash. This drives a high volume of travelers to book on their sites time and again.
Please note that the Hotels.com brand primarily accepts traditional lodging property types, like hotels, bed and breakfasts and guest houses. If you are a vacation rental/apartment manager, you should instead consider Vrbo, their dedicated site for this type of property.
The benefit: More bookings, business growth, and expanded reach through exposure on a global marketplace of recognizable brands.
You can sign up to list your property on Hotels.com easily via their website, then connect a new or existing account to eviivo Suite in just a few clicks. You do not need to sign up to all Expedia Group brands separately with eviivo; your listing will appear automatically on their leading online travel brands, including Expedia.com, Orbitz, Travelocity, Wotif, and more.
The benefit: List once via Hotels.com and your property is instantly distributed across major brands, all managed seamlessly through eviivo Suite.
Hotels.com makes a variety of payment models available to accommodation providers and guests. Subject to your agreement, the Expedia Traveler Preference model allows guests to pay online at the time of booking or upon arrival at your property, maximizing booking opportunities.
Alternatively, Expedia offers these payment models separately, so you can set bookings to exclusively be either paid online at the time of booking or paid on arrival. You decide what model works best for you.
eviivo Suite supports all these options. Opening a booking in the eviivo calendar will display both how the guest has paid and how you’ve chosen to receive and collect payments.
The benefit: Flexible payment models and a variety of available payout options, all supported by eviivo Suite.
