HotelPlanner Reviews

I called with the intention of getting free parking for duration of my 8 day cross country trip to attend my dads memorial. Jason knew this the main thing booking for. He conveniently did NOT work with the hotels park and go policy so no free parking. He also refused to correct spelling of my first name. They have zero supervisors willing to help, file complaint-nothing.

DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE-despite claims all is well.

Terrible. Traveled 4 hours away from home and when we got to the hotel we found out we did not have a reservation, even though I had a confirmation number from hotel planner.

The reservation was never sent to the hotel. There was another couple who had booked through hotel planner and their reservation had never been sent either. The hotel said this has happened several times in the last few weeks.

We could not get a hotel locally due to two big events in the area. Through the kind assistance of one of the local hotels, they found us a room half an hour away.

Fortunately, hotel planner refunded our money and did so immediately because I was so upset and they knew they had been caught in their scam. Do not use this company ever!

I Google for a hotel by the Vancouver BC airport, and somehow I ended up with an Agent from Hotel planner, I went ahead with the reservation of a room for 240C dollars, I needed a second room but they couldn't help me. I decided to book the second room once at the hotel.

For my surprise, the exact same room was only 139C dollars at the front desk. So Booking with Hotel planner was an extra 100 dollars. I understand they need to make some sort of commission, but an 80% over the price seems extremely high.

I called customer service, but course couldn't do anything for me. So people should know this

This company is a 100% scam. They will lure with a price and then switch you to another. The price shown will be way higher after all their fees. They will harass you with text messages.

Often time you will get to the hotel and the room will not be available. People working for them without backgrounds checks, they have the take 50 before a background is checked. Crazy! They train employees to give the impression that you are actually booking with the hotel and not a third party. They steal from employees with bogus disputes, and they don't pay you for your sales.

The people that handle pay or even management do not even answer your emails. It will take many months before they pay you sales. Their training is just a recording you cannot talk to anyone unless is via email, which they don't respond.

The employee LIVE chat does not even have anyone staffed so there is no one there to help. They recently had security breach, so you better not use your credit card on their website. It' a scam!

I made reservation on August 4 for the dates of September 23 and 24th. Due to Covid the event we were going to was canceled so I canceled my rooms on August 9th. I was told no problem ... I would receive full refund within 14 days. Then I get email saying they had issued a voucher! I have made at least 10 phone calls to all numbers associated with the emails.

I always get a mid eastern nationality that speaks poor English... they will just say “ you get your refund” then hang up. Every time I email, I get same reply ”your refund has been processed". This website is nothing but a scam!!

Tried to check into my hotel and the desk clerk said she couldn't check me in because they didn't have a valid address for me and she couldn't enter one. They could see that I had a reservation and I pre-paid, but would not give me a room.

I called the Reservation help desk number and asked if they could enter an address for me in the system and the woman on the phone could not grasp what I was asking. The front desk person then called someone, I assume it was the same ‘help desk’, and that person had a very difficult time understanding what needed to be done, and never did help with anything. After about a half hour of trying to get checked in I gave up. I called the 800 number back to cancel my reservation at that time only because I couldn’t get checked in. And now they will not refund me and said I was "no show". Such crap!
