Book Direct with Fort Wood Hotels for the Best Deals!

Looking to book a trip to Fort Leonard Wood soon? It can be tempting to use an enticing 3rd party booking website when choosing your lodging. However, we always recommend booking directly with your hotel for the best deals and customers service. Learn more about saving on your next getaway below!  


What's the difference between booking direct and third-party booking sites?

Booking Direct is when you find the hotel you would like to stay at and you pick up the phone to make your reservation or you go directly to their website to book a room. You are booking directly with the hotel with no middleman. If you book online, you are using their hotel reservation system so you can see exactly what is available in real time.

Third-Party Booking sites were created to show someone traveling all of their lodging options in one place. If you are not brand loyal, you may use this site to search all hotels in one particular area. This tool will bring up all hotels in that geographic area and then you can sort by ratings, price, etc. Most people like options so this may seem like the most ideal way to shop. You will use companies like Orbitz, Priceline, Travelocity, etc to get what you feel is the best deal. You are not booking directly with the hotel at this point but using a third-party booking site. They get their inventory by allowing hotels to load some of their rooms into their system. Then for every room booked, the hotel has to pay the third-party booking site a fee.

Lower Prices & Rewards

Booking directly with us means you get the best deal! Hotels pay fees to the third-party sites so when you call us directly, we are more willing to price match. We can also look at your rewards program and see how we can get you the best price using your program as well. We also handle the loyalty programs on a daily basis so we will make sure you are taking advantage of all perks pertaining to the program.

When you book with a third-party booking site, it's not uncommon for them to tack on extra/hidden fees. Some sites show fees disguised as taxes and then you'll be required to pay the real taxes at check-in. As you can imagine, this can you leave you feeling frustrated at check-in, but unfortunately, our hands are tied when you book with a third-party booking site. Booking directly with our hotels is a guaranteed way to make sure your reservation is secure and will be exactly how you want it when you arrive.




Better Customer Service

When you stay at any of our Fort Wood Hotels, we offer 24/7 front desk attendants to help you book your stay with us. You call us anytime and talk to an actual person to book your hotel stay in Fort Leonard Wood and get any questions that you may have answered. When you book through a third-party booking agency, it's hard to get ahold of anyone if you have any questions. Reservations are sometimes lost or wrong when you book through a third-party booking site and when this happens, our front desk can't help - you'll have to deal with the third-party site you booked with which is typically an 800 number that can be difficult to get problems resolved.
