How to benefit most from Hotelcard
The best deals at any time: on our website you will always be able to find a bargain hotel deal, no matter when you plan to travel. This is how you get the maximum out of your subscription:
Beach, city or mountain
Depending on the day of the week. In the mountains or in the countryside you will get the most and best offers during the week. City hotels, on the other hand, usually have high availability on weekends and reward your visit then with big discounts.
Book early in advance
If you book early, you will be rewarded with the best selection of hotels and deals.
Off the beaten track
In addition to well-known places like Zermatt, Interlaken, or Lucerne our platform also offers countless hotel options in fascinating little places away from the masses. Especially during school holidays and main travel season, you will find the better offers if you keep away from the main tourist gateways.
Bookings with children
Our platform allows you to search and book hotel rooms with children of different ages. Where this is not easily possible (extra beds, etc.), we recommend contacting the hotel by phone.
Last-minute-hotels
The filter option “instant booking” shows you hotels where you will receive a booking confirmation within seconds. On these properties, prices and availabilities are adjusted in real time. For all other hotels, the booking confirmation is sent via e-mail by the hotel and within a maximum of 24 hours.
