I had a change in circumstances and they REFUSED to refund the 3 days I reserved! I never checked in and contacted the company a couple of days before the reservation was even active! Don't let this company fleece you of your money!
March 17th I made a reservation at the Best Western in Tulare, CA for late May (2 months in advance). I thought I was on their website, but didn't realize it was your booking site until I received an email confirmation of the booking, and the hotel said it was you (Expedia.com).
Surprise! Although there was no mention of a NO cancellation refund when I booked the room, the email confirmation so stated - NO REFUND if the reservation is cancelled My credit card has been already charged.
Your are deceptive and misleading. I did cancel the reservation and I want my money back, $231.89. Itinerary Number: *******. John Laurent
I like how easy it is to search for a hotel with Reservations.com. You can even narrow down your search to the attraction you want to stay close to! This is especially helpful for planning a vacation.
My wife and I were thrilled with all the changes and improvements to the hotel. The lobby area with adjacent sitting area coffee/bar were excellent and we loved the concierge who helped us with our plane reservations. The room was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Thanks for the lovely experience!
I made a reservation through reservations.com for a hotel room. The charge was supposed to be $89 but the charged $138.00 to my credit card. I called for a refund 4 times and was told there was no refund. I called the hotel and was told reservations.com paid them $75 for my reservation and they charged me $138.00. They are scammers! Do not make reservations with them!
I was tricked into thinking I was calling my Hotel directly but it was Reservations.com. The agent told me I would have a suite with 2 Queen beds and a roll away bed. The room was not a suite and there was no roll away available. The rate was higher than if I had booked through my IHG Rewards App. The agent lied. My reservation was non-refundable. Terrible service. Do not use Reservations.com. Rip-off.
They present as the hotel themselves. They are not. I booked a room. Immediately upon booking I realized that they were not the hotel. I then did research and found out what they called a Superior room would either be a double bed or twin. I called and e-mailed. MORE THAN WILLING to PAY MORE to insure I had the room I wanted. They said they could not do it because it was non refundable. I did NOT want a refund. I wanted to upgrade. It became very obvious that the staff had NO power. This is a 100% internet company. They are horrible.
The site looks like you are on the hotel site, they said it was a great rate. The rate is the same if you went direct to hotel. Then they add a 25.00 fee.
This is a rip off. Customer beware. I already sent a note to the Better Business Bureau
I made an accidental reservation online today. I googled a hotel and there was an ad for said hotel and when I clicked on it, it looked like the hotel itself so I completed a reservation. After clicking confirm, I was notified that my card was charged in full and so I knew something was not right. Upon further glance, it showed that I was on a site called reservations and NOT the reservations page for the hotel. I contacted them immediately and they REFUSED to refund because it their policy stated they could not. No one was willing to help and continued to repeat the same line about the policy not allowing for a refund. I am sincerely at a loss for the way they are handling this situation and am using every outlet to deter others from using their company
I made a three day reservation at a Radisson in Akron. The first day my wife fell and fractured her shoulder at my daughters home. She spent that night in the hospital. I notified the hotel that night I would be checking out a day early. Next morning the hotel told me I couldn't cancel because I got the reservation at reservation.com which is Priceline. In short they don't care, they lied about contacting the hotel. I'm disputing this on my credit card which is a Costco visa. Will not in any way pay this charge. Strongly suggest you don't ever use this site. Look at the reviews, most are dreadful.
I got routed to this site inadvertly thru another travel site. Booked a "room" and paid in advance.
The hotel is known by one name online, and another to locals in the town... for good reason, it charges by the hour! In addition, there is a charge $20 charge for the reservation you never see until it hits your credit card.
I made an error. I booked with the wrong location of embassy suites. Money gone. No exchange. No transfer to the correct embassy suites just down the road. No nothing. Tried to dispute it with my credit card. No help there, either.
Never use any company that uses reservations.com. Never use Embassy Suites.
Money gone.
We tried booking directly from the hotel website and then compared with Reservations.com. We saved a whole lot more with the site, so we decided to book our hotel online instead. Now, we always recommend Reservations.com to our friends.
I thought I was booking directly w/the hotel, that was not the case. I needed to cancel one night and the agents at reservations.com were incredibly unhelpful, and very rude. I had to call the hotel directly to get authorization. I will never make that mistake again.
They are not clear and upfront and they add extra pricing into their charges without listing them. They are criminals and awful. I have called and called to get a refund when I saw the additional charges... STAY AWAY
I have had a terrible experience with reservations.com. I am a Canadian and I booked a hotel in Canada from Montana and they charged me in US funds. The hotel was $190.00 Canadian and in the end reservations.com charged me $251.21 CDN plus a $17.70 service fee. So be ware Canadians do not book with this company, even if you are in Canada and book with them, they will still charge you in US funds. I will never, never book with this company again, very poor customer service.
I did not realize that I had made the reservation thru reservations.com, last time I stayed at this hotel I did not have to pay $14.99 for additional fees. I had gone to the hotel website and made my reservations, this time I thought I was doing the same thing, to my surprise I somehow got on this website. Will not happen again. There are plenty of other sites with no fees..
Reservations.com ad for the hotel name I googled came in higher and bolder than the hotel itself, and I didn't pay attention to the website address for the hotel 800- number I called. Fell into a den of thieves. Stay away.
I was looking for an inexpensive place to sleep for one night. Ended up paying $195 for Econolodge because I was booked for two rooms because of Reservations.com screw-up. Tried to get refund--no luck!
I needed a reservation at a cobblestone inn hotel and the first site that came up looked exactly like the cobblestone site. I booked the reservation but the confirmation was for reservations.com and it had a service fee of 19.95 which was not disclosed in the booking total. I immediately called them and cancelled the reservation but they would not remove the $19.95 service fee. I will be calling my credit cared company and disputing the charge.
Answer: Call your credit card company and report it as an unauthorized charge. You may have to cancel your card and get a new card and card number, but it's worth it.
Answer: Impossible to get money back. They're just scumbags!
Answer: Yes, this company charges a fee, which it will not refund even if you cancel your reservation within minutes!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for question. Please contact us at support@reservations.com so we can better assist you with this matter. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to hearing back from you. Sincerely Reservations.com Support Team
Answer: It can be, if its refundable reservation. Every reservations has a different cancelation policy. Mostly last minute reservations are not cancelable.
Answer: My experience is the same. reservations.com obviously nails a lot of unsuspecting Canadians this way. They don't make any attempt to help you out when they are confronted by this way of hosing us. Its a sleazy organization.
Answer: Hello Brodie, We have sent you an email this morning regarding your concerns. Please email us directly so we may assist you. Sincerely, Customer Support Reservations.com
Answer: Yes, you were billed. Call your credit card company and report it as an unauthorized charge. Your company should remove it, send you a new card and assign you a new card number.
