Hotel Booking Service

  1. Scope of service. By making a reservation or booking through Travelzoo’s hotel booking service, you enter into a direct (legally binding) contractual relationship with the hotel at which you book. From the point at which you make your reservation, Travelzoo acts solely as an intermediary between you and the hotel, transmitting the details of your reservation to the relevant hotel and sending you a confirmation email for and on behalf of the hotel. We may charge a fee for the service we provide when you book or reserve travel services or accommodations through Travelzoo’s hotel booking service. The information disclosed on this Site regarding each hotel is based on the information provided to Travelzoo by the hotel. While Travelzoo has exercised due care in attempting to check the information provided by the hotels, Travelzoo cannot guarantee that all information is accurate, complete and correct, nor can Travelzoo or its affiliates be held responsible for any errors (including manifest and typographical errors), any interruptions (whether due to any (temporary and/or partial) breakdown, repair, upgrade or maintenance of our Site or otherwise), inaccurate, incomplete, misleading or untrue information (including, but not limited to, inaccuracies relating to hotel photographs, hotel property descriptions, and lists of hotel property amenities) or non-delivery of information. Each hotel remains responsible at all times for the accuracy, completeness and correctness of the information shown (including the rates, availability and taxes) displayed on our Site.
  2. Prices. Prior to booking your reservation, a total estimated price (including estimated taxes and fees) will be displayed. When you complete your booking, you authorize Travelzoo to book reservations on your behalf for the total estimated price. All charges are shown in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated. The room rate displayed on the Site is a combination of the room rate provided to Travelzoo by the hotel for the room you reserve and a fee retained by Travelzoo to compensate us for our services. Prices, rates and inventory are subject to change based on availability from the hotel and may change at any time prior to receipt of your booking confirmation. The "taxes and fees" amount displayed includes an estimate of transaction taxes (e.g. sales and use, occupancy, excise and value added tax), government fees and other charges that the hotel must remit to the government for your hotel reservation. The type of tax charged by the hotel may change at any time and will vary by service and location. The hotel suppliers are solely responsible for remitting applicable taxes to the applicable taxing jurisdictions. The hotel reserves the right to charge you additional taxes, service fees, resort fees or hotel charges (including, but not limited to, resort fees, parking charges, minibar charges, room service charges, housekeeping fees, phone call charges, movie rentals, etc.). These charges, if applicable, will be payable by you to the hotel at checkout. You shall be completely responsible for all charges, fees, duties, taxes, and assessments arising out of the use of this Site and the booking of your hotel room. Please contact the hotel directly as to whether any additional taxes, service fees or charges apply. In the event a service is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information, Travelzoo and/or the hotel retain the right to refuse or cancel your reservation whether or not the order has been confirmed. If available, we will offer you the opportunity to keep your pending reservation at the correct price or will cancel your reservation without penalty. Travelzoo and/or the hotel are under no obligation to provide travel services to you at an incorrect (lower) price, even after you have been sent confirmation of your booking.
  3. FREE extras. We have negotiated with hotels to offer special benefits called Free extras with certain bookings based on rates and availability. Please note that Free extras are not available for all rates and bookings or other hotel deals displayed on the Site and therefore it is important that you read the booking details carefully so you understand what your booking entails and whether you are entitled to receive a Free extra. If a Free extra, or any portion thereof, cannot be provided by the hotel for any reason whatsoever, the hotel and/or Travelzoo reserve the right to substitute the perk with another perk or no perk at all if one is not available at the time of your stay. Free extras are not guaranteed. Unless otherwise noted, all extras are per room, per stay and can only be used once at the time of your scheduled booking and can no longer be used after checkout. The estimated dollar value of the extras is based on information provided to us by the hotel and may vary depending on availability and market conditions. Extras have no cash value and cannot be redeemed for cash or a cash value. No refund or credit will be issued for any unused extra (or portion of an extra). A complimentary breakfast Free extra is based on the total number of travelers entered at the time of the booking and the hotel may, at its option, limit this amount to a maximum of two guests per room per stay. Breakfast may be available only in select hotel restaurants and a hotel may decide that an extra is not valid for in-room dining. Room upgrades and early check-in/late check-out are based on availability and cannot be guaranteed. Any recipient of a Free extra that involves alcoholic beverages must be of the appropriate legal age in accordance with applicable law. Other restrictions may apply. Offer is subject to change or cancellation at any time without notice.
  4. Credit Card. Hotels require credit card or debit card details in order to guarantee your reservation. As such, Travelzoo will send your credit or debit card information directly to the hotel at which your booking is made and Travelzoo may verify (i.e. pre-authorize) your credit card as well. Upon check-in, guests may be required by the hotel to present a valid ID and/or credit card or, in the hotel's discretion, debit card, in their name that is consistent with the transactional details provided to Travelzoo. For certain rates or special offers, please note that your credit card may be pre-authorized or charged by the hotel (sometimes without any option for refund) upon reservation and confirmation of the booking. In such circumstances, you agree that your credit card or debit card may be charged for the total estimated reservation price. Please check the room details and the booking terms thoroughly for any such conditions prior to making your reservation.
  5. Changes or Cancellations. By making a reservation with a hotel, you accept and agree to the relevant cancellation and no-show policy of that hotel, and to any additional (delivery) terms and conditions of the hotel that may apply to your reservation during your stay, including for services rendered and/or products offered by the hotel. The terms and conditions of a hotel can be obtained with the relevant hotel. The general cancellation and no-show policy of each hotel is made available on our Site on the hotel information pages, during the reservation process and in the booking confirmation email. Please note that certain rates or special offers are not eligible for cancellation or change. Hotel cancellation policies vary. If you fail to check in to your hotel on the day of your reservation and do not alert the hotel, the remaining portion of your reservation may be canceled, you may be subject to hotel-imposed penalties and you may not be entitled to a refund, depending on the terms and conditions of the applicable hotel. Please check room rate details and booking terms thoroughly for any such conditions prior to making your reservations. If you would like to review, change or cancel your reservation, please review the confirmation email and follow the instructions therein or call our Customer Service. Please note that you may be charged for your cancellation in accordance with the hotel’s cancellation and no-show policy.
  6. Disability Needs. If you have disability needs (for example only, you need a wheelchair accessible room), you must call the hotel and verify that your disability need can be met. If your disability needs cannot be accommodated by the hotel, please call Travelzoo’s Customer Service.
  7. Special Requests. Depending on the hotel and the reservation you book, you may or may not be able to select your room type and number and type of beds. Room assignments are based on hotel availability and are at the hotel’s sole discretion. Travelzoo cannot guarantee a non-smoking room. If you have special requests (including, for example, preferences for smoking or non-smoking rooms, a specific room, particular bedding, floor location, proximity to an elevator, connecting rooms, or pet accommodations), you must call the hotel and verify that special requests can be met after you have made your booking. Since Travelzoo has no control over which room a hotel will assign you, Travelzoo may not be able to accommodate special requests in advance of your booking and cannot guarantee that special requests will be met. In addition, frequent traveler points, upgrades, certificate vouchers and other discounts or incentives may not apply to Travelzoo’s hotel services.
  8. Correspondence. By completing a booking, you agree to receive email communications which we may send you (or your guest) shortly prior to your arrival date, giving you information on your destination and providing you with certain information and offers (including any Travelzoo promotions, offers or deals) relevant to your reservation and destination. We may also send you an email promptly after your stay inviting you to complete our customer review form.
  9. Hotel Ratings. Hotel ratings displayed on this Site are intended as only general guidelines, and Travelzoo and its affiliates do not guarantee the accuracy of the ratings or the consistency of the ratings across other online or offline platforms.
