How to cancel a hotel reservation after booking it?

Generally speaking, there are several ways to book a hotel

(1) Contact the hotel directly to reserve a room. This method does not require payment in advance, so it does not involve changes or refunds. However, if you need to reserve a room, you need to provide a deposit. If you do not check in on the day, the first night will be deducted;

(2) If you book a hotel online, most of them are non-cancellable or non-refundable. If If you do not check in, the first night's room fee will generally be deducted and the remaining balance will be refunded; if you want to cancel the subscription, you can find the customer service of the network where you made the reservation to help you cancel the subscription. However, this kind of cancellation also depends on the platform. Are you willing to help you? Because you made a prepaid non-cancellable order and the money has been received. It also depends on whether the hotel will allow you to unsubscribe, because online platform bookings and cancellations are made through issuing orders to the hotel. It depends on whether the hotel agrees.

(3) If the order does not support cancellation, you can only ask customer service for help, because your money is still on the online platform and has not been credited to the hotel's account. If you agree to cancel the subscription, it means that the hotel has the ability to cancel the order. The room you checked out will be sold again. If you don't agree to cancel the reservation, it means that the hotel is still not sure about pushing your room out or the room is very tight because your reservation has pushed away other reservations. In short, talk to the customer service of online booking.
