There are usually many hotels. After determining the appropriate hotel according to your own needs, click on the reservation step 3: after arriving at the reservation page, fill in some contact information and pay attention to ensuring the accuracy of the information, because after arriving at the hotel, you need to verify the information. Step 4: Click the submit button to generate the order number, and the website will send the relevant information of the order to the hotel, and then you can check in after reporting the relevant information of the order to the hotel. Note that booking hotels online is generally free, and you can pay after you arrive at the hotel. There are also some hotels that need credit card guarantee because of the shortage of housing. Friendly reminder: in the peak season, the hotel should make a reservation in advance. How to tell the authenticity of online booking network: 1. Find the record number of the website. Usually, a regular website will put the record number of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology at the bottom of the homepage of the website, and there is a link to the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Click to enter the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to find out whether the website has passed the filing through "public inquiry". If put on record, no matter whether the owner of the website is an enterprise or an individual, it can be regarded as a regular website and has a certain reputation guarantee. Second, check the information source of the website. Every reservation website has a source of hotel information, usually a large network company or a technology company. Where do you live? As a star member of the Alliance (Alliance ID:282232), the hotel information is provided by Beijing Jiuyou Technology Co., Ltd., and every hotel description page has such a prompt for customers to know. You should know that all the hotels provided by the reservation network should be contracted hotels. We can find hotel information directly and conveniently through the website, but we also need to know who signed the contract with the hotel. If the source of information cannot be easily found, then the credibility of the website should also be considered. Third, it is very important whether to provide free reservation service and whether the payment method is front desk payment. At present, the regular booking website does not require customers to pay in advance (except the deposit required by the hotel due to room pressure), but provides online free booking service. After the hotel is booked successfully, you will arrive at the hotel on time according to the SMS content and pay at the front desk, so that you can enjoy the online preferential price for check-in. Remember, keep your money safe at all times. 4. Did you receive an order processing SMS prompt around 1 hour after booking? After submitting the order, it is estimated that 1 hour or so. No matter whether the appointment is successful or not, there will be a short message prompt. If the hotel reservation is successful, the SMS will show the specific address of the hotel and the front desk customer service phone number. At the same time, it shows the information source provider of the reservation network, that is, the contractor with the hotel. This kind of short message is free. Fifth, look at the layout of the website. The layout and style of the website can also show the formal degree of the website. It is difficult for people to trust a website with confusing contents, blurred pictures, repeated text links, varied advertising contents and a tendency to imitate famous websites. Beware of illegal booking of websites Recently, there have been many incidents in some parts of China in which non-star hotels impersonate star hotels and low-star hotels impersonate high-star hotels to deceive consumers. Among them, the media, the Internet, reservation centers and advertising companies are all important channels for spreading false news. In a city in Sichuan, an illegal booking website was also found to lure consumers to fill in bank accounts and take the opportunity to earn ill-gotten gains. The police reminded the general public that when booking online, they should choose a well-known website with good reputation and try to choose the "front desk payment" method. Domestic booking websites are far from overseas professional booking websites and travel websites. The world's largest hotel booking network can book more than 7,000 star-rated hotels around the world, covering more than 300 travel destinations around the world. However, domestic booking websites currently have relatively few hotel resources. In terms of operation, the proportion of online direct booking in different places is not high, and the proportion of online credit card payment is even less. Experts believe that this is mainly due to the short development time of the Internet in China, and the concept of online marketing has not been fully accepted by tourism enterprises at present, especially online settlement, which is still relatively unfamiliar to many domestic tourism enterprises.
