Can you cancel hotel booking online?
Yes, you can cancel online bookings. But it will depend on the
website that you booked through. Some are 24 hour prior to arrival,
others 48 and then you have the pre-paid that you can not cancel.
If you do not cancel before the cut off you will be charged for one
night regardless if you stay. What many people do not understand is
that when making reservations online is that the hotel itself is
not able to cancel the reservation for you and that you MUST cancel
on the site you booked it at. When you book online the hotels
themselves are charged a commission fee, even if you use their
franchise main site. Recommendation: if you are traveling look up
the price online, call the hotel direct and get the rates. Sometime
they are better. If they are not, mention what you saw online and
8:10 time they will match it to avoid having to pay out 15% of the
already reduced price. You will be able to find out what room is
available and they don't have to listen to you complain about what
you booked online because it was different than what the third
parties sent them. Then, if you need to cancel you can call the
hotel, unless there is a special event they will cancel it for you
without charging you.
