Total Ripoff
April 13, 2019

I received my hotel bill from hotel where i stayed as i need it for reimbursement for business. Then i check credit statement to find out I payed an extra $29 through hotels one for that room which does not show up on my room charges, so not able to claim for reimbursement. Last time I use this method of booking hotel rooms.

Vegas 49.00 hotel
April 11, 2019

I paid 49.00 for the room and was charged over a hundred. Thought the price was for the hotel fee that they charge. Nope I was also charged at the hotel. Unreal. I will Not come to this sight again.

I want to the main hotel site to book a reservation for 2 nights. After traveling to get to the hotel to check in. No reservations. We found out we were falsely led to HotelsOne.com... They stole our money. Phone contact with these morons is just that... Scamming bunch of thieves.

Just spent 1.5 hours on the phone with someone in the Philippines, over a reservation at a hotel 5 miles from my home. Just wanted to change the checkin day, and I wasn't even asking for a refund. Ended up being threatened with paying double and losing the whole reservation. "Do you want to pay an extra $580? Well do you?" And this was the SUPERVISOR. Run from this company!

They AGREEDED to refund money after I was hospitalized due to life threatening illness. Never received refund. Called again, spent waiting 20 minutes before hanging up. They said I had no record of calling before and tried keeping my 320 bucks.
Stay far far away from them. SCAMMERS!

You will find HotelsOne lurking at the top of search engines and if you click their site it will appear to be the hotel site. They will advertise special prices but may change the currency to USD and have extra taxes over and above normal.
Stay clear, customer service is non existant!

At the completion of booking a 2 night stay in a hotel through Hotelsone, I was informed my request could not be processed at this time. I immediately completed another request. You guessed it, I received two emails confirming my bookings. I immediately called Hotelsone service center. They put me on hold, then told me the hotel would not cancel the booking or refund my money. I was not looking for reciprocity from the hotel... it was not their fault. My request was made two days prior to my visit. There is no reason Hotelsone could not have canceled my second reservation. They have agreed to refund me half of the $279.00 fee. I will contest this charge with my bank. But I will never use Hotelsone again and I will be sure to share this experience over and over. I don't appreciate their customer service or lack thereof. This could have been handled with my first call to customer service.

This company has no idea what customer service is. FRANK helped me out first leading me to believe I was giving my payment information for a deposit and then charged me the whole amount in US currency. I cancelled my reservation only to get half of my Money back. I just got off the phone with a rude little girl that had no idea what she was doing or talking about named DACKESAE I asked her repeatedly if there was a supervisor because she wasn't listening and trying to understand my frustration. WHAT kind of service is that!? And why is there no supervisor? Very shady reservation agency. DONT EVEN TRY TO USE THIS COMPANY... YOU WILL END UP REGRETING IT. Thank you for the lesson.

Do not use this service.

Book directly with the hotel. Cancelation required because the airport was 45 minutes away, but the hotel was advertised as serving the airport. Different booking was required for travel.

Expedia very misleading!
October 20, 2018

Be careful when you book on this website. I actually thought I was booking on the Days Inn Website but it wasn't. This Expedia website makes it appear you are booking directly with hotel. Well when I needed to cancel the hotel would have cancelled but I was told told to call Expedia since that's who I apparently booked through. It was hell trying to cancel due to an emergency and Expedia kept blaming hotel for not wanting to cancel. Expedia was the blame. I kept the reservation because they wanted me to cancel most likely to not only keep our money but book the room for someone else! The worse part is Expedia's price was the exact same price as Days Inn for the night! I will be very cautious when making a reservation again and will NEVER booked through this website again! Very misleading website even Days Inn admites to that! My overall rating an ABSOLUTE ZERO!

Absolutely terrible.
October 12, 2018

Absolute garbage site. It is impossible to get a hold of them once you make a reservation to make any changes. They have a European phone number which is unaccessible no matter where you're at by cellular phone. You cannot dial an 800 number when you are out of the country.

And the hotel just tells you you have to call them which is impossible. I would not use this site if they were offering free stays in hotel please run run run.

FRAUD - THIEVES
October 11, 2018

BEWARE - this website is a total FRAUD.

They use the same logos, pictures as from the original hotel websites and appears to be them!

They are definitely connected through some other booking websites to collect the availability and rate data - and manipulate the rates to attract foolish travellers online!

Garbage
October 10, 2018

HotelsOne is garbage. They are hidding fees!

I would recommend any other online booking or go directly with the hotel. I had so much trouble and I was never able to learn how much taxes or services fees I paid and to who I paid them...

Nonrefundable cancellation
September 26, 2018

We were on vacation in September in the Maritime Provinces of Canada. We decided to cancel our Prince Edward Island portion and stay in Nova Scotia. We had made our hotel reservation thru Hotelsone.com and cancelled on line. There was no notice or warning that our prepayment was nonrefundable. So in looking for the refund and not finding it, I start closely examining our confirmation of cancelation we got AFTER we cancelled and discover to my horror that there is a hidden notice that the $549.64 payment was NONREFUNDABLE. Their business practices are tantamount to a scam. I will never use their site again.

Booked a room in Rossland, B. C. (Prestige Mountain Resort) on Hotelsone.com and within the hour noticed that the price was in American funds. For a Canadian, that means an added 25 to 30 per cent to the bill. I was charged a booking service fee of $14.99 US, plus the cost of the hotel room ($189 US), even though I cancelled within an hour of booking. The room cancellation, four days away from expected arrival, was well within the stated time frame needed to cancel without penalty. Almost a month after the booking, still pursuing the $189 US for a room I didn't use. I'll chock up the loss of the booking fee to experience: i. E. never to go through Hotelsone.com again. I would rate Hotelsone.com "no stars" -- if such an option were available on this site.

The whole family stayed at the motel for the wedding of Vincent and Sally on the 5th, we were all extremely happy with the reception, and accommodation, the rooms were lovely, clean and warm. And the breakfast the next morning at a nearby café was very good, we would recommend it at any time.
