Most people who frequently surf the internet are fully aware that there are many travel- related sites to assist the tourist with everything from flying to car rental. Lodging sites are in great abundance, and one of them is hoteldiscount.com, an ...
Hoteldiscount.com very simply, is a site where you can book a hotel room. You CANNOT book a flight, rent a car or order train tickets, you can only book a hotel room.
Pros: Rooms when they're unavailable elsewhere Cons: High rates, Misleading Advertising
Why am I reviewing a site that I've never bought from? Simple.... You don't have to book a room through HRN (parent company of hoteldiscount.com or 180096hotel.com) to know that it's a ripoff. All that you have to do is to LOOK for one!
Pros: easy to use, good rates,problem-free Cons: could add more cities
There are really several ways to get to hoteldiscount.com. A few web addresses will take you to the same page. I used hotelreservationsnetwork.com and got there. This site is fantastic! I have used it three times for actual travel, and search it...
Pros: Site is easy to navigate. Cons: Customer Service sucks.
I have just returned from a trip I booked for my sister and I to get away from it all using Hoteldiscounts.com.
What a trip it was! I drove in from CA to meet my sister flying in from IL to Las Vegas and proceeded out to our hotel.
Pros: Extensive List of Hotels in a given area Cons: Difficult to get customer service response
I used this service to make hotel reservations in New Orleans during the last Christmas season. I made the mistake of not looking at other sites before making reservations with hoteldiscount!com.
I've used them about 40 to 50 times over the last few years, mostly to book rooms for travelers in my company. In general, I've been extremely pleased with the results and remain a loyal user. I just returned from London where my $60/night room booked...
Pros: Cheap rooms, good tracking of bookings on their website. Cons: Misleading hotel descriptions, terrible customer service.
I used hoteldiscount.com to book two separate stayovers in D.C. in late September/early October 2001. Prior to leaving on my trip, I had to cancel the second stayover, and, after some hiccups, my cancellation was accepted. (They initially claimed there...

I called and spoke to the customer representative. She seemed very helpful. I was very specific that I wanted three things: (1) An available 2 double bed room in a general area of Chicago. (2)Pool (3)Breakfast (4)Internet. She said that the hotel I ...
Pros: full hotel listing with different types of rooms Cons: complete lack of customer service
it's a nightmare to fix overcharges
When you click "submit" on their website, you sometimes get an email telling you to call; that it didn't go through. When you call, they sign you up for your hotel. Unfortunately, it's pre-paid and you get charged twice (once for the click and once for...
I recently took a trip to Chicago and booked with a major hotel chain through Hotel Discount.com. This was the first time I had used them and I had fears that a)I'd show up and have no reservation, or b)The desk clerk would know that I was a cheapo and...
I was looking for a cheap hotel in D.C. for my friends and I made the reservation through this intermediary. I got conformation, but suddenly I was forced to cancel the reservation. Their rule is that cancellation is possible no later than 72 hours in...
Pros: There is NOTHING PRO About this place Cons: Customer Service.. or LACK OFF Customer Service. False promises, you name it...
This will be the 100th time I told this story. Mostly to customer service representatives who have a tendency to HANG UP ON YOU. I used HotelDiscount to set up a reservation for my Girlfriend for her trip to Cancun. The shows up at the hotel... they have...
i called and asked a simple question about a rebate offer, only to be carelessly shuffled back and forth between departments because NOBODY i talked to (at least 10 people) could answer my question or even knew which dept would know the answer. In...
