Hello I use online hotel room booking on a monthly basis twice a month. Might have never encountered an issue such as this. When booking my room for Sunday night the webpage altar my booking for the next week instead. After finalizing the payment the dates were wrong. Instead of the BN for the same night of booking it was a week away. I called to adjust with customer service when traveling to the location 6 hours away in the afternoon and not arriving until midnight and customer service would not help in any way other than charge me for a new room all over again. Since I was already on my way to the location I had no choice other than to pay twice in one day. I'm very dissatisfied with the experience and the customer service that I received. Like I said before I travel twice a month and use online services all the time and have never run into this this issue. I am also in the hospitality industry for the last 15 years by managing back steakhouse. I would hope that someone would be willing to help me with other arrangements in the future or a given voucher to recover this lost.
Every booking experience with Get A Room has been awesome... The representative was very helpful and worked with our dates and request.
I had heard complaints about using getaroom so I wanted to share my experience. Booking was easy, but the main issues I had heard were related to the hotel having the booking and dealing with getaroom customer service. I booked the room on a Saturday, checked with the hotel directly on Sunday and the booking was not yet on their records. I sent an email to getaroom and heard back Monday. Very pleasant note, explained the situation, I responded by saying I was not comfortable with a long delay in having the hotel show the booking, and the rep got back to me within an hour saying they had spoken to the hotel and the booking was in their system.
I was very pleased with my experience and did not have any of the troubles others have mentioned.
Booked through Trip Advisor there is nothing else to say so how can I use 100 characters. Ive never heard of you before
Good experience overall... made better when refund given when emergency hospitalization made us have to cancel trip.
Worked well. Close to food and easy access to highway. I would use this hotel again. However, we shouldn't have to enter 100 characters if we choose not too; so I will fill it with this run on sentence.
The rate I was given here ended up being $25 more than what the hotel was charging for their rooms at the time I was staying there. When I contacted customer service I basically got a "too bad" for an answer. Terrible customer service.
Zero stars would be more accurate. I booked online a $119 room - with taxes of about 10%, expected total to be about $131. Screen showed hotel name and reservations number - not a mention of getaroom. I quickly got an alert from my card company showing I was charged $178.
I called the toll-free number shown on the screen displayed prominently next to hotel name. To my surprise someone in the Philipines answered saying I had booked with getaroom and the extra $50 was a service fee and no, they would not cancel.
Deceptive trade practice. Appealing via my card company now.
They are very good at problem solving. After, I contacted them about my issue at the hotel. They take a full responsibility which is I really appreciate and hope they will keep doing this, I mean caring and listening to what customers said and give them comments. Thank you.
Reservation #R*******521 purchased on 3/28/2018, case *******
Ordered reservation with breakfast included and when we received the confirmation of our reservation BREAKFAST WAS NOT INCLUDED!
OUR CREDIT CARD WAS CHARGED AND IT IS A NON REFUNDABLE RATE AND THIS IS NOT WHAT WE WERE TOLD AT THE RESERVATION!
Room should have been $153 per night for 2 nights, they charged my AMEX $410. Would not cancel even though hotel would cancel, they said their hotel partners would not cancel it. Why do they need a hotel partner?! I thought that I was on the hotels website but no I landed on this sorry companys site! I will post a horrible review for this company on any and every site I can find! I tried to cancel 30 seconds after submitting reservations and seeing the total charge of $410. Con artist company! Will take this as far as possible and have already started the dispute process with AMEX.
I checked in and found my best price to be about $30 cheaper than I paid on this website. Will deal directly with Clarion next time. This Clarion Inn is a good bargain but not through here.
I was trying to find a room a little closer to downtown, walking distance to pubs etc. and I found it. Great price too.
While viewing properties on the site, the rates were constantly changing so that by the time I have viewed the possibilities, a rate of $175/night changed to over $200 and the downtown location I was originally interested in was over $300... looked like bait and switch to me. Not satisfied.
Our booking was quick and easily made. We booked 5 twin rooms and the price was very competitive, the cost was in US dollars so be prepared to do a currency conversion. Never used GetARoom before so hope all goes well with our booking later this year!
We were stuck in Florence without a room I made reservation in February and when I arrived in April the hotel had no reservation for us. It is a 4 Star well known hotel and they had sent getaroom notice of not having a room. However you took our money and kept it. I lead groups to Italy. I will NEVER use you again and I will discourage others to do so.
I was suppose to get $25.00 a night off the original room rate for the Great Wolf Lodge if I booked thru getaroom website and which did show up at check out. When I submitted for purchase extra taxes and fees of $l72.39 were added which put the total costs paid for a room for 2 nights over what I would have paid if booked thru the Great Wolf Lodge site. I called Getaroom and they only gave me 10% $72.39 refund. Also was never explained in order process the reservation was not refundable if canceled. The site said refundable if canceled before the reservation date. Only in the confirmation did it state I would have to pay one nite if canceling the reservation. This site is very deceiving and you will not get a cheaper rate or matching rate as stated.
GETAROOM customer service contacted me within 24 hours and resolved my issue with great care and understanding KUDOS! Thank you for your quick action on my behalf!
Bad cancellation policy. I will continue to warn others of the awful customer service I received and stress added to my trip because of GetARoom. I hope nobody has to go through this.
Answer: They are not ethical. For me, they used a website that appeared to be the actual hotel website, did not identify themselves when they should have, and did not mention booking fees while they charged a 30 percent booking fee for a room that was its normal price. They were supposed to cancel charges on my credit card and did not. STAY AWAY!
Answer: They are a site attached to Trip Advisor---- if you see them on screen while trying to book a room-- hit cancel. I'm out over $150 because of their fraudulent cancellation policy.
Answer: Thought I was booking on the actual hotel sight but was deceived in as much as it was Getaroom. Talked to someone else also staying at this hotel at the same for about a third less. Called them right back and had already charged my card and it would be up to 3 weeks to refund. That's about what it took but did get refund. Then checked reviews and no one had anything good to say about getaroom. Go straight to hotel sight of one you know and trust or stick with something like Travelocity.
Answer: I'm definitely in. There's something very deceptive, if not illegal, when you start off on a hotel's website and when you click Make a Reservation, it somehow transfers you to the GetARoom site without your knowledge. I had no idea this was done until I received their email confirmation. I'm thinking of contacting my state's Consumer Protection Div. Of the AG's Office to file a complaint when I get back from vacation.
Answer: Call 800-468-3578 but good luck. They are scammers
Answer: Wow. This is one bad company. Made a reservation and then needed to cancel. They gave cancel date all along. I called to cancel on that date and was told that date was only for 1 minute of date they told me. I was supposed to forfeit one night's cost. Luckily I made reservation on AMEX and they'll tell this fraud company to get lost. Moral of the story: make reservations through hotel.
