ScrewDirectBookings Posted April 23, 2021 Report Posted April 23, 2021 Why do some hotels charge guests who book directly through the hotel $20 incidental hold and $100 if you book thru Priceline ?
thereuare Posted April 23, 2021 Report Posted April 23, 2021 Welcome to BetterBidding! All hotels have different policies as far as how much of a deposit or 'hold' they will place on your credit card. Generally speaking, the more upscale a hotel the higher will be the deposit (although $20 would seem extremely low even for a budget property). I'm not aware of of any hotel that requires a higher deposit/hold for 3rd party bookings... do you have a specific hotel that you're referring to where you experienced this? Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
