They disguise the site URL to look like the direct hotel website in Google search. It wasn't until I saw the $150+ "tax and recovery fee" on a $214 reservation that I realized something was off. By then I'd already booked. I canceled the reservation, but the site isn't clear on whether or not they refund the exorbitant fees. For comparison, booking directly on Marriott had $34 in government taxes and fees. Bookonline.com is crazy.
Tip for consumers:
Don't. Just don't. Book anywhere else - directly with the hotel, Priceline, Booking.com, Truvago, Kayak - anywhere else.

My husband made a reservation months ago, but had issues when he arrived. They only had $1,200 a night suites available. While my husband was at registration trying to reserve a cheaper room, I called and spoke with Vanessa. She was able to book him a reservation for 3 nights at the Cosmopolitan. My hubby was able to walk over and check in immediately. After a long flight, finding a reasonably priced room was a relief.
I mistakenly booked a hotel room on this website and paid in full at the time of booking. When I checked out of the hotel 3 nights later I was told that my payment had not been received and that I needed to pay for my stay with another credit card. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
I was looking for a reservation on Saturday night late and I failed to be able to do it online. The young lady who took care of me on the central reservation line, Regina,was outstanding. She did a fantastic job was polite calmed me down and she is deserving of all praise she can get.

After trouble on website (every time I clicked on book room it said "sorry, that room was just booked"), I called.
The agent was very competent, easy to work with, got me in the room I wanted.

Kaliyah was extremely helpful … spending time answering all my questions and searching for the rest rooms. He is an asset to the Hilton team.

Jarvis was super helpful! He was so patient trying to find the best solution for me. I almost didn't book with Marriott and he was so efficient that he managed to convince me to book. I'm grateful because I was in a bind and needed this room for work purposes. Super grateful for Jarvis. Thank you!

Unfortunately, the hotel didn't honor our reservation even though I had the confirmation text. They were greedy and gave our room to someone else. Very poor public relations on their part.

I booked 1 room for 3 at a motel at $74.00 a night and was charged $689.39 and $289.00 was taxes and fees on there website. I was ask If I wanted to pay for refund protection and opt. Out, charged anyways. I then need to change the dates and contacted them about changing them. After 3 days trying even with help from motel someone finally called. This was 9/29/2024. I was then told they would refund me the origanal amount in 10 days or less,and needed to pay for the new dates at another $300.00 and told person on phone no for this protecton plan again and was charged again. I have contacted this company at least 20 times now about this refund and get the same thing. Your reguest is approved and will see back on your the card I used. Nothing yet now 15 days. Keep contacting them again and once again I will have a supervisor contact you. It is now 26 days. I started looking into this company and finding out this is happening to many people. The BBB has them as 1 star and F Rating. All reviews online also show theses refunds not getting refunded. I now have reported this company to thr FTC for help with this refund. I can only worn people to not use these scammers and book direct to the motel and avoid this scam

The rates advertised for hotels are not honoured and unless you're very careful, you could end up paying £000's more for a room. Disgraceful.

I am traveling with my daughter and our flight was canceled and not rebooked until the following day. We have a standby flight so I was hesitant to book a hotel room in case we do get on the flight. I called the Hilton and Jose was wonderful about explaining my options and was very patient with me as my anxiety is high. We were able to get a room and a guaranteed refund if we get on our standby flight.

She had patience with me. I asked a lot of questions. She kept trying to find me a hotel I could Afford. I told her she needed a raise for all the work she did to find me a room. We need more people like her.
