Hotel rooms are all the same room type, some are marked as agents and some are not. What happened?

The difference between agent room type and direct selling room type, and different booking channels.

1. The difference between the agent room type and the direct selling room type: the room marked "agent" is provided by the hotel's agent or partner, not directly provided by the hotel itself. This usually means that the prices, booking conditions or services provided by these rooms are different from those provided by direct selling rooms. The agent will reach a specific agreement with the hotel, get a better price or its conditions, and then sell these rooms to customers at a specific price or conditions.

2. Different booking channels: Another reason is that rooms marked "agent" are sold through different booking channels. For example, some rooms are booked directly through the hotel official website or the front desk, while the agent rooms are booked through the websites and booking platforms of third-party travel agencies. These different booking channels will have different prices, policies and services.
