TripIt Hotel Recommendations

TripIt’s initial entry into online booking offers Web users the option of booking hotel properties directly on the TripIt website. 

• The hotel recommendations and booking feature currently is offered only on the TripIt website.  Recommendations (and booking)  via mobile apps is in our plans.
• Hotel recommendations will be offered if no hotel items are present in the itinerary at the time of trip creation. 
• Initially only one hotel property will be offered but you do have the option to view additional recommendations.  
• If you have multiple destinations in a single itinerary you will only be offered a recommendation for your primary destination.  The option to change property destinations is offered.

Booking:

• Booking of the recommended property must be made online.
• Bookings can be made for the property initially recommended or you can see other property options by clicking on the 'see more recommendations' link directly to the right of the 'Book Now' button.

• To adjust the dates for the hotel recommendation click on the 'Book Now' button and on the booking page that appears select  'Change Dates' directly under the original check-in/check-out date display.

• New bookings cannot be made by phone through TripIt.

Payment:

• Payment will be collected by the hotel property and charged to the credit card entered at the time of booking based on the properties booking/payment rules.  
• Please note some property rooms (usually in resort areas or during holiday and high seasons) do require a deposit.  When this is the case the text 'Warning, This rate requires a deposit' will appear directly below the room type.  If booked your card will be charged, by the hotel, immediately for the deposit amount.  Please see the hotel cancellation policy (displayed on the booking page) for deposit refunds prior to booking deposit required rates.
