GBMisleading price quoted Searched for a hotel using Google. This looked like the official website for the hotel I was looking for. Appeared to quote £95 for 2 days I wanted. Accepted that and booked/paid. £191 taken out Hotel rooms £126.80 Tax Recovery Charges & Service Fees £65.04 Amount Paid £191.84 Tried immediately to cancel but told nonrefundable. £126 for the rooms is actually reasonable but the extra charges are ridiculous! #####update##### Contacted by customer services who offered some compensation due to lack of clarity. They were very quick to respond to review. Updated to 3* due to that response. I will have to pay a lot more attention in future.

GBThis company is a complete scam This company is a complete scam. They masquerade as the hotel's website, then when you book you find all sorts of fees added that you never expected. When you try to cancel they claim there is a no cancellation policy. So you're stuck. Try to dispute the charge and they tell your bank you are erroneously trying to get around paying for the room that you agreed to. COMPLETE SCAMMERS.

GBBEWARE BEWARE! Getaroom.com is an illegitimate business. Just reported them to Better Business. They go by many names, I booked through their alias Guest Reservations. They are owned by Bookings Holdings. They show the same price as everyone else but when the charge goes through it was $200 dollars more and non refundable 10 minutes after the booking. No other site was non refundable for this hotel for that night and every other site said the taxes were $57. I was booking for my daughter who was attending a funeral of a 20 year old friend. No hotel should be allowing this company to book their rooms.

GBThink con-job. Encourage everyone to report to BBB. Think con-job. Thrives on deceptive marketing, having their company appear before the actual hotel direct booking link. My dad (im his 70s) booked a room through what he thought was The Comfort Inn (had the logo at the top of the page), where we've stayed for years, after checking out and being charged a $100.00 fee, he realized it was a third party and canceled immediately. Turns out you can cancel, but the cancelation is non-refundable.

GBGETAROOM SCAMMERS Booked 3 rooms for two nights with breakfast after searching on hotel website but it seems getaroom jumps in during booking, sort of cuckoos and you end up going through them rather than hotel website, my booking with hotel should have been £730 we ended up costing £1012.92. We had to pay for breakfasts plus whatever commission they took which in my opinion is an outright scam, in fact I would say criminal. How can you be booking through Holiday inn then end up paying through getaroom, they sneaked in somehow. NEVER EVER BOOK THROUGH THEM check your online booking before you pay as they have other names it looks like from other reviews. The hotel said it has happened before as we were in reception another couple had the very same thing happen to them.
