Why is it cheaper to book hotels direct?
Since the internet has become so dominant in our everyday functions it has touched virtually every aspect of our daily lives and this includes how we book our hotel accommodation. On the surface is a good thing, it makes viewing your accommodation easy and the booking process easy but for the hotels providing the service they get hammered by huge fees which can easily amount to 30% of your total payment. Large so-called 'Online Travel Agents' or OTA's for short now dominate the booking process with household names like Booking.com and Tripadvisor amongst the biggest players. Hotels which decide not to list properties on these platforms need to work hard to encourage guests to book direct with them and in doing so they are keen to offer some really generous discounts typically between 15-25% off standard rates. This is where BestBookDirect.com come in, we promote brands which offer guests great deals for booking direct and in return the hotel brands reward us with a small payment per booking which is typically between 1-5%. We are not greedy and recognise that in order for the market to operate successfully hotels need good online exposure but that should not cost them an unreasonable amount if the industry is to be robust and sustainable. |
