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.

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.

GBThey double booked me and will not refund Booked a room through this company via a link sent to me by our volleyball club. Accidentally booked for 1 night and meant to book for 2. Called within two hours of booking to “change” the reservation to 2 nights. Unfortunately they did not have an extra night available for the room I originally booked so they offered me a different room at a higher rate which I accepted. Showed up to check into my room inly to find out that they didnt change my reservation at all. They booked me for another room at 2 nights. Now they are refusing to refund my first reservation. I requested a copy of the “recorded call” and was told I would receive a copy within 72 hours. NOTHING has been sent to me. When I reply to their email they are now telling me for contractural reasons I am unable to receive a copy of the recording. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!

GBBeware!! Scam!! This must be criminal? Thought I was making reservation through booking.com. Somehow it was redirected. Reservation was supposed to be $327.37. After I gave credit card info they charged $442 and over a$10O in “Tax Recovery and Service”. Have screenshots. Tried to cancel immediately and rebook with Booking.com but it was now “prepaid” Tried to call no one answers. Email response was basically auto reply. The hotel clerk was upset, said she couldn’t do anything because they are “3rd party” After the fact I’ve read this a common practice by Getaroom. This must be criminal or certainly a horrid way to treat people.

GBSCAM They are a phishing organisation who somehow - so far - slipped through the US law despite class action law suits being filed against them. They masquerade as the hotel's website, making you believe that you book directly with the hotel. They do not show full prices before directing you to the card details page. They politely answer because they have prepared all the responses already when they set up their practices that should be illegal to start with. Upon contacting the hotel, the personnel told me they did not even receive my reservation nor any money. Getaroom's cancellation costs more that the room itself that they say are "processing fees" - I ask, what processing, when they did not even contact the hotel nor sent any money? Avoid this organisation at all cost and double check what address you book on, hotels would never direct you to this shady website.
