Will I be charged anything by the hotel when I make a booking.
No. In most cases, your credit card is merely used to "guarantee" an online reservation. Your credit card account is then billed once you complete your stay & check out. Some properties, mainly resorts, may take a nominal deposit on the credit card supplied online. In either case, most hotels in our collection permit cancellations w/o penalty on the vast majority of all bookings. Each hotels' policy varies & can be found on our site.

Does WhataHotel.com have a different cancellation policy on a completed reservation?
No. We abide by the same cancellation policy as the property. Most properties will allow a guest to cancel a reservation without a penalty if such cancellation is made outside the 24 hours prior to arrival. Some properties, especially those in resort areas have 7 day/14 day parameters where cancellations within such timeframes result in the forfeiture of at least one nights room/tax charge or more.

Does WhataHotel.com charge a fee on bookings?
Yes, there is a nominal, non-refundable transaction fee when you complete a reservation online. If a professional agent handles your booking, there will also be a transaction fee.

Yes, it is perfectly safe to use your credit card. WhataHotel.com uses secure socket layers, encryption techniques and firewalls to safeguard all of your personal information on its booking engines. We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard, Diners and American Express.
