Benefits of booking directly with best hotels and resorts

Why don’t you think about booking directly with the hotel or resort? It can save your money to a great extent and you can unearth some extra services and facilities. It means you have something in your pocket.

However, making online research of the best hotels and resorts in a certain location allows you to estimate the rates and facilities beforehand but still moving further for booking purposes might not be a good option.

So here are the Benefits of Booking directly:

  1. Direct Relationship :

When you book directly, it builds a direct relationship with the hotel and the guests. So no third agency is involved in it. Hotels also prefer direct bookings as it is a financial gain to them. While in indirect bookings they have to share a cut with the online hotel booking agency. Certainly, hotels are averse to it.

2. Special Treatment:

Resorts and hotels understand that direct bookings should be given preference and thus they treat the guests a little more special than the guests who book online. They don’t want to lose you. Thus building rapport with the customer by providing the best rooms and services becomes their motto.

3. Your choice is their concern:

In direct bookings, things do not get messy. There is no pressure on hotel staff to bound in the deal. As they are benefiting from direct dealings with the guests, they’ll listen to all your queries and provide the best they have in terms of accommodation, price, perks, and other factors.

4. Offers and discounts unlocked:

On direct bookings, a guest gets special offers and discounts from the hotels on the spot and also in the future. To hold you as a loyal customer, hotels, and resorts create the strategy to offer lucrative benefits to customers for a lifetime. So that your next visit occurs again through direct bookings. Thus it’s a win-win situation both for the guests and the hotel.
