What does "Pay When You Stay" mean?
Unlike many other online hotel reservation sites, CRSHotels.com does not require prepayment. You pay the hotel directly, according to the individual hotel’s policy. For most hotels, that means the hotel will process your payment when you check out.

If an individual hotel requires a deposit or prepayment, that information is clearly noted on the hotel’s description page on CRSHotels.com.

Do you charge fees to make reservations?
Our reservation service is free to travelers. There are no hidden fees, no processing fees -- none of those extra fees that other web sites charge.

Will my credit card be charged when I make a reservation?
Your card will not be charged unless indicated for that specific hotel. If the hotel requires a deposit or prepayment, that information is clearly noted on the hotel’s description page on CRSHotels.com

If you don’t charge my credit card, why do I need to provide a credit card to make a reservation?
Our hotels require a valid credit card number and expiration date to guarantee the reservation.

How do I change or cancel a reservation?
To view, change, or cancel an existing reservation, you can easily log into your account by clicking the "My Account button" at the top of the page.

To log in, use your email address and the password you created.

If you have forgotten your password, simply click the link that says "Forgot your password?" and fill in the required information. Your password will be sent to the email address you used in creating the account.

What if I have a question about my reservation or need to change a reservation and your call center is closed?
If our call center is closed and you are scheduled to arrive at the hotel within 72 hours, we recommend you call the hotel directly. The phone number for the hotel is listed on the confirmation e-mail you received from CRSHotels.com when you made your reservation.

What does it cost to change or cancel a reservation?
CRSHotels.com does not charge anything to change or cancel a reservation. As long as the change or cancellation is in keeping with the hotel’s cancellation policy (which is clearly outlined on the hotel’s description page and on the reservation confirmation you received), your hotel will not charge for changes or cancellation. If there is a charge to change or cancel a reservation, that information will be contained in the cancellation policy.

How do I log into "My Account?"
To log in, use your email address and the password you created.

What if I forget my password?
If you have forgotten your password, simply click the link that says "Forgot your password?" and fill in the required information. Your password will be sent to the email address you used in creating the account.

What if I booked a hotel reservation through another web site/reservation service or directly through the hotel?
You will need to contact the site/service or hotel where you originally booked the reservation. If you do not remember how you booked the hotel reservation, we recommend you contact the hotel directly.

Does CRSHotels.com offer discount rates for AAA, government, convention, corporate travel, or for travel agents?
Hotel rates at CRSHotels.com are already discounted -- the lowest rates the hotels offer -- so we are unable to offer additional discounts.

Does CRS pay travel agent commissions?
CRS does not pay travel agent commissions.

The hotel I wanted is not available. Can you help me find an alternative hotel?

If I’m not satisfied with the hotel or my room, who should I contact?
If you have questions or concerns about your hotel or your room when you check in, it important that you talk with the front desk manager or supervisor during your stay. Most hotels will do their best to resolve your issue. If the person at the desk is not helpful, ask to speak to their supervisor or to the general manager.

If the hotel does not take satisfactory action, please make a note of the names of the hotel staff you spoke with and {contact CRSHotels.com} [link to Contact Us]. We will do our best to work with the hotel to resolve the situation.
If you decide to check out early, please be aware that the hotel will decide what charges you will incur for your stay/early checkout. Be sure to find out what the hotel’s policy is regarding these charges before you check out.
