How late can I make my reservation? |
|

How do I know which room type I should reserve? |
|
|
Your choice of room type depends on the number and type (i.e. adults/children) of occupants who are to stay in the room. On the Search Page, the room type drop down key specifies the number of occupants which can be accommodated by each type of room. |

 |
Can I ask for a special room type or make some other special request? |
|
|
Requests for special room types (e.g. non-smoking, view, high floor, etc.) - as well as other special requests - can be made at the time of booking, but are not guaranteed. Such requests cannot be made or changed once the reservation is confirmed.
You can also fill our Special Request Form for your special requests. |

What is the Prepaid Accommodation Voucher, and why do I need it? |
|
|
The Prepaid Accommodation Voucher is a document showing that your reservation has been booked and confirmed. We recommend that you print and keep this voucher as some hotels may ask you to present it at the time of check-in. The voucher also holds important reservations information, including your confirmation number and hotel contact information. |

 |
When can I check on the status of my reservation with my hotel? |
|
|
You may check on the status of your reservation with your hotel at any time using your confirmation number. Please note, however, that if you call the hotel more than 7 days prior to your check-in date, they may not be able to reference your reservation by name. Names of customers booking our allotments are submitted to hotels 5-7 days prior to check-in. |
