Used it a few times when i was looking for some alternatives other than the more known ones, and this one worked perfectly. The thing that caught my eye the first time i ever logged on the site was their extensive language and currency preferencers, they are pretty easy to set and the website interface is a little bit old-school which like. You don't really want flashy animations and shiny illustrations, you just want to book your hotel, get your confirmation, check some info about the hotel and get on with it. This site is particularly cool for that, prices are competitive and the website often provides pretty good deals and discounts as well. So, simple and east, streamlined, supportive, competitive, it has all the good ingredients to be a really good alternative.
Never booked through hotelone.com these scoundrels will trick you into booking a non-refundable hotel room with zero warning. Once you book, they bill you the full amount automatically and then it's almost impossible to get your credit card company to even reverse the charge. I had a booking a month in advance on a trip I had to cancel a month in advance & the hotel refused a refund as well!
Thanks so much! Your customer service rep was so helpful when I needed to add a day to my stay. Although I have not uet received a confirmation from hotels.one for the 12th, it did arrive under another business name... Upon confirming directly with the hotel, I have secured the 12th-17th and shouldn't have to leave my room on the 13th as the reservations merge.
The Plaza directed their booking here.
The dates on the confirmaton are wrong. I made them with a human over the phone, so I think the hotel has the right dares, but I will call and confirm. Once again, the Intardnet proves to be garbage designed by hoopleheads.
Because that was what popped up
DO NOT USE HOTELSONE. Do yourself a favor and contact the hotel directly. This company is horrible and is one of EXPEDIA partners. They provide absolutely no value to the hotel booking experience. Hampton Inn told us they never ask customers to pay up front. As other reviews I have seen I believed I was booking directly with the hotel we were staying at and did not know this until we had to make changes and called the hotel. Do not waste your time or your money with this site. Rates available directly with hotel were cheaper than those charged by this site. This company will also charge you up front, whereas the hotel would only have charged a deposit. File a complaint with both the BBB and the FTC against this scam company.
Very negative. I thought I was dealing directly with the hotel and afterwords when I realized I wasn't I was unable to cancel my prepaid reservation. I paid about $100 more than I needed to. When I tried to call hotel one I was never able to speak with anyone.
Not satisfied at all because the robot that answered the call kept directing me to hang up.
It was easy to set up a reservation but I was disappointed that it was NON-REFUNDABLE. Every other sight I have booked through allows for cancellation at no cost which is important if circumstances change. We have no plans to change our reservation but if needed it would be nice to know I would not be out $200. With hotels needing the business and with accommodation rates having increased 25% in the last two years no cost cancellation should be offered.
I booked through HotelsOne as it was the site that came up when I went to reserve at Glacier House Resort in Revelstoke. No other option came up. If one did I would have likely picked the booking site that allowed for no cost cancellation.
First off, I thought I was on the hotel website booking my stay but apparently Hotelsone came in through the backdoor and took the booking. Anyway, they got my dates and amount of rooms completely wrong. When I tried to call their customer service line they ask for my phone #, itinerary #, or last 4 of the card used on the purchase for reference. They never sent me a confirmation email do I had no itinerary number. They said they did not recognize my phone # or card # in any recent booking yet they CLEARLY have my card # because they CLEARLY, immediately charged my card! I could NOT get my money back and had to call the hotel to book with them paying DOUBLE for my stay!
This site duplicates the hotel website so that the customer thinks he or she is dealing directly with the hotel.
I have stayed at the Harbor House in Galveston many times and I thought I was on their website. Once the
Reservation was made, I learned that I had made a reservation with HotelsOne. I tried to get a refund and I was told there are NO REFUNDS! I will contact the State Attorney General and have these people investigated for deceptive trade practices. Run the other way when you see HotelsOne!
Hi Your booking Agent could not help me so she gave me the hotel tel number. I have been unsuccessful in reaching the hotel number as it would either ring or just give an engaged signal.
The reason why I am trying to contact is to confirm that I can arrive in the early hours of the morning as I am on a flight from Australia Melbourne to Auckland which only arrives at 12h30 ie 00h30 on the 29th August. I have booked in for the 28th out check out on the 29th August - is this correct. I don't want to arrive in the early hours of the morning of the 29th August and have a problem. Other than that the booking experience was really easy and your Agent very helpful.
as mentionned above your customer service was very helpful but could not answer my question , she did give me the Hotel Tel. number but I was unsuccessful multiple times in getting though to clarify my question .
Proximity to the airport
I didn't receive a booking confirmation and I ended up calling the hotel (international long distance rates applied) three times to get this resolved.
I thought I was booking directly with the hotel; didn't know I was going through HotelsOne. Should I contact you (HotelsOne) if I need to change my rez?
Why isn't confirmation instant? It's scary to give card info, press confirm, then nothing! Then wait 6 hrs for an email. Did it go thru? Have I got the room or not?
I didn't, I suppose the Hotel did? I just clicked the link, THINKING I was on hotel website. Next time I'll phone directly.
Hotels.One site is simple to navigate and has great inclusions with its information available about local attractions. This made it even easier to plan our weekend getting away!
Hotels.One has more accommodation options.
Would be nice for clarification on fees because of booking through hotel one I paid 200$ more than if I booked direct… not very happy about that at all
Thought it was the better deal, definitely wrong there
Really easy to book and so excited. This site took about 5 minutes to get my room reserved. I will make a point to use them for any further travel plans. Thank you
Site was straightforward and easy to use, confirmation came through almost immediately, although went into spam folder so please check that if waiting on your confirmation.
Location of property I needed for date booked.
Tried to book a room, web page went down at the end came back on with credit card details omitted, tried again and ended up paying twice, have since cancelled one booking and waiting for refund
Cancelled one payment online was quite easy but should be quicker refund
Couldn't get YMCA website
Detailed description on rooms, location and value.
Assurance of reservation was followed up promptly.
Very good and secure feeling in dealing with HotelsOne
Website states it dies not charge your credit card however my card was charged CANCELLED my reservation 2 hours before MST still can't get a REFUND cause we never made it to this location. Called customer service was informed to contact the hotel/motel directly, go the front desk was told by the female she doesn't know who the manager is or what time they show up and straight hung up on me! RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL!
Very easy to book, I did not have a choice because that is the manner in which this Hotel books their guests. Just the right amount of information not too much.
I had too as that is how this Hotel books their guests.
Not bad, but I would have liked a bit more information about the room I was getting and I would have wanted the confirmation to have confirmed that the charge included breakfast - which the booking page had said was included in the price.
Also, I wanted to pay by American Express, but the booking page insisted on a three number security code, Amex has 4, so I had to use another card.
Near to where I live
Perfect so far! Love this hotel.
Feels like a small boutique hotel
But wears sophisticated like big
City.
Clean, Fresh, Healthy environment!
Easy to sleep. Quiet!
Staff exceptional! Thanks
I like Paradox.

It's a scam! Hotels.com, hotelsone.com etc. all liked to Expedia. Be careful as to any new company names popping up. All this is also tied in with Capital one.
Because of Covid 19 lockdown I phoned Hotels One UK number and cancelled the Copthorne, Wellington. The Hotels One operator said they'd call the hotel and talk to them about a refund. I decided to hold and wait, the operator came back and said nobody was answering and would try over 72 hours otherwise I'd lose my money. They returned with an email 3 days later and said they hadn't been able to get hold of anybody and wouldn't refund me. It's interesting I didn't have a problem talking to someone at the Copthorne and disappointing during these tough economic time that there are organisations like this allowed to operate.
Was charged 30% more when booking through the HotelsOne. Paid in advance and was then charged again upon check out of the hotel. Only discovered it a week later on my credit card statements. Beware
I was asked to respond confirming I had received my booking and I'm hijacked into filling out a bloody review. I will book direct with Hotel next time.
