Priceline Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company reveals significant dissatisfaction among customers, primarily due to issues with booking accuracy, hidden fees, and inadequate customer service. Many reviews highlight frustrations with non-refundable reservations and uncommunicated changes, leading to feelings of being misled. While some customers appreciated the initial pricing, the subsequent hidden costs and lack of support during disputes overshadowed these positives. A recurring sentiment is a lack of accountability from the company, prompting numerous customers to vow never to use the service again. This feedback indicates a critical need for improved transparency and customer support practices.

We put in a bid for a 5-Star hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. We ended up getting The Trump Hotel which is a more than a mile off the strip and it doesn't even have a casino! The whole reason we are going to Vegas is to gamble. Given the temperature is only going to be in the 40's while we are there, we planned on doing most of our gambling where we stayed. I couldn't be more disappointed and disgusted. I tried to change it but they said they couldn't help me since they didn't say a casino was guaranteed I the fine print. Honestly I didn't know there were any hotels "on the Strip" without a casino! I will never book anything through Priceline.com again.

Great Value
December 21, 2015

I have always had a good experience with Priceline. I get the best deals and almost always get my hotel rooms for approximately 50% off. Easy to use and I like their site over other discount websites.

They are the worst!
December 16, 2015

They are thieves! I dealt with two representatives and they just want your money, they don't respect their customers nor care about the circumstances their customers are dealing with!
I don't recommend that you do any business with this company!

Thieves!

Priceline is a rip off
December 14, 2015

The banner reads name your own price and you can save up to 60%. I bid $250 for a hotel and they gave me a hotel for $251. Where's the savings? I could have picked the hotel I wanted if I knew Priceline was false advertising. When I called they told me the room is non refundable and they gave me the best price available. My advise is don't use Priceline! They false advertise and there customer care is the worst all they do is read off of cards Priceline gave them. Horrible Horrible Horrible
