Please never ever use this website to book. Not sure how I got led from the hotel website to theirs without realizing, but they charged me an extra 300$ fora 2 night reservation which included a 218$ reservation fee which was20% of my reservation. On calling them about it they said it was a standard fee and refused to refund it. Also keep in mind the room rates and taxes they charge are much more than standard hotel rates and other third party booking websites. I have booked so many times before through Expedia and Orbitz and never ever been charged this extra exorbitant reservation charges. This website is a BIG BIG SCAM!
Somewhat satisfied. Wasn't comfortable enough with clerk as to know if this reservation is through the hotel and is reputable as I had never heard of this service before. Thought I was directly dealing with hotel chain services so am somewhat leery if everything in the reservation will work out smoothly. This reservation is for my daughter & her fiancé in one room and my hubby & Me in the other room before they fly back home so want everything to be a smooth transition!
Made a reservation to the wrong location I called literally 1 minute later and they said "I'm sorry based on the cancellation policy we can cancel but your reservation is not refundable this is just TGE WORSE website to use... be careful before y'all used this horrible website

Good Service and Customer Experience Overall and they are always happy to help with any query you have.
I very much appreciate GetARoom arranging a rebook.
I would give them a 5 star were it not for the many calls and emails it took to make that happen. Getting to the right person - someone who had authority was difficult, and it happened only when i gave a poor review.

While we had some complication with booking through this site, the customer service acted with urgency and was able to assist with the issue. I'm surprised how quickly they responded and showed empathy after emailing them about my complaint on the up charge rate.

My husband and I stared calling for a hotel traveling last night
Found a four star hotel and we
Called 800 number straight from 4 points by sharaton
Already Had Checked price Later realizing it was Get a room instead
The operator said hotel reservations but said Wharton was booked but there is a Marriott courtyard for $75 dollars
We paid for it in full price over $100 and drive
Straight to hotel
It was a very unsafe run down dump
That we
Could never have sort the night
Call right away and explained it was NOT a marriott courtyard and they said
Sorry for

If I had just showed up to the hotel the same day and asked for a room, which they had plenty of availability, I would have paid $124 plus taxes. Instead my total bill was $222. This is not adding up and feels like a scam. Do not use getaroom.com.

Was quoted $769.44 for 4 rooms for 2 nights which I consented to, and then they added $354.36 in fees for their service which I was not informed of and they refuse to refund the money to my card. I have filed a dispute with my credit card company. Do not use GetARoom as they are dishonest and will rob you, and their customer service representative doesn't speak English and has a rooster crowing in the background! Was promised a return call when I complained. 3 days later, no return call. I called back and they said they were still working on it and to be patient. Still waiting...

When you book through this which is sometimes hidden in the hotels website or in the web address reservations.com. When you have a problem with the hotel the hotel says" this is a prepaid reservation". They can not adjust. I was charged too much and unable to get a refund for a bad hotel stay. It's hard to identify when you reserve so buyer beware!

They will over charge you claiming its taxes and fees and the customer service will not help you out. We paid 471 for two night stay at a $160 a night room. Like someone else said, they deserve negative stars. Worse company ever!

While looking for a room while crossing these United States. I thought was on the website Kayak but turns out it moved me to a website called rent a room. I picked a motel room that we had been very satisfied across the US. I put in Henrietta, Oklahoma. Went through all the steps to request a certain room and then pay for it with a credit card. Not till I tap that last button did I realize that it was Henrietta, New York. Then it was impossible for me to undo what I had done. It took 5 trys to get the refund.

Thieves pretending to help people, charging hidden fees of twice the room rate. I am so mad I could spit. Thieves of innocent people

I made a reservation online at a Hampton Inn. Unfortunately, I reserved a room in a hotel in Ashland, Virginia instead of Ashland, Oregon which is where I wanted to stay. I realized my error right away and called getaroom.com to cancel the reservation. I was told that there were no refunds possible. I explained to several customer service representatives that I had made the reservation in error less than an hour ago, that I would not and could not use the room, and that I wanted a refund. Each custopmer service representative refused my request, stating company policy. I appealed to them with reason -- I could not use the room, no one would be out money, and I again requested a refund. It was refused. When I received my next credit card statement getaroom.com had indeed charged me the fullcost of the hotel room.
Your company policy aside, charging me for this room was arbitary and unfair.
I encourage everyone to avoid using this company! They are sneaky and when you search for a hotel room it "appears" that you are booking directly with the hotel, but you are instead dealing with this sham company.
Do not use getaroom.com.

Took extremely long on the phone, hard to understand each of the representatives I spoke with. Specifically asked if I had met all the requirements to be able to enter hotel and go into my room immediately which they assured me I had. Upon arrival I was unable to check in and needed an additional deposit for which a chipped credit card was required with no exceptions or other payment methods.
Unable to locate my chipped credit card I couldn't secure the room and had to fight for a refund which is still 5 days later not in my account. Also didn't get a room.
Horrible service, had a lack of information and alaround rude and unhelpful.

Answer: They are not ethical. For me, they used a website that appeared to be the actual hotel website, did not identify themselves when they should have, and did not mention booking fees while they charged a 30 percent booking fee for a room that was its normal price. They were supposed to cancel charges on my credit card and did not. STAY AWAY!
Answer: They are a site attached to Trip Advisor---- if you see them on screen while trying to book a room-- hit cancel. I'm out over $150 because of their fraudulent cancellation policy.
Answer: Thought I was booking on the actual hotel sight but was deceived in as much as it was Getaroom. Talked to someone else also staying at this hotel at the same for about a third less. Called them right back and had already charged my card and it would be up to 3 weeks to refund. That's about what it took but did get refund. Then checked reviews and no one had anything good to say about getaroom. Go straight to hotel sight of one you know and trust or stick with something like Travelocity.
Answer: I'm definitely in. There's something very deceptive, if not illegal, when you start off on a hotel's website and when you click Make a Reservation, it somehow transfers you to the GetARoom site without your knowledge. I had no idea this was done until I received their email confirmation. I'm thinking of contacting my state's Consumer Protection Div. Of the AG's Office to file a complaint when I get back from vacation.
Answer: Call 800-468-3578 but good luck. They are scammers
Answer: Wow. This is one bad company. Made a reservation and then needed to cancel. They gave cancel date all along. I called to cancel on that date and was told that date was only for 1 minute of date they told me. I was supposed to forfeit one night's cost. Luckily I made reservation on AMEX and they'll tell this fraud company to get lost. Moral of the story: make reservations through hotel.
Answer: Hi Sharon, We apologize for any negative experience. As this question is about a pending refund due to the impact of Covid -19, please know that our refund response times are longer than normal. We are working diligently with all of our suppliers to get approval and expedite your refunds. We do see that there is a recent review posted by Sharon. We will assume that is from you and add it to the queue for a Service Resolutions Specialist to review your case. Sincerely, Getaroom
Answer: Hi Al, Please advise your booking number and we will have a representative reach out to you. Thank you. Getaroom.com
