Great search engine for hotels

New ad on TV (Trivago) caught my eye, so I took a look. It's brilliant for choosing that pre-cruise stay in Sydney.

It is good because you get to compare the various sites and their prices. Makes it nice and easy.

It better be a great service as it will have to pick up commissions on lots of bookings to pay for all the TV advertising it does. The ads are run pretty heavily in NZ as well. At first I thought it was advertising a dating agency .. :eek:

Yeah - the first ad was cute but then they became an 'item' - :eek:

 

I look at the site if I do not have a preferred hotel in a location but then go to the hotel site as I never book through 3rd party sites. Find that I can get a better room and inclusions booking direct but YMMV.

Agreed, always research the hotel direct site vs booking through a indirect site. They also often have limits on how many rooms they can sell for the hotel.

They also put the rooms on that the hotel has trouble selling, and get rid of them at real cheap prices. We had one in Sth America..... real bargain, but so so noisy ....opposite a staff entry door and they all used to come through , let the door go and it would crash shut. :eek:....The rest of the Hotel was full of course ....so they could not change us.:rolleyes:yeah right.:D

Always bring ear plugs although that only shuts out so much noise.:(
