How it works?

The Guestbook rewards program helps independent hotels compete with larger chains and pay fewer commissions to OTAs. We increase website traffic and direct bookings, and you only pay rewards on ~40% of actualized bookings.

Attract new guests

Make your property stand out

Don’t compete on room rates alone. The Guestbook enhances your search messaging and drives more visitors to your site at a lower cost.
We also help you tap into the collective strength of 800+ hotels and nearly 4 million highly qualified members to bring new guests who are searching for properties just like yours.

Convince and convert

Capture more direct bookings

The Guestbook seamlessly integrates with your current system to make booking directly more dynamic and rewarding. Plus, it’s fully customizable so you can easily add promotions to more effectively address changing market conditions and seasonal opportunities.

Retain more guests

Repeat guests are more profitable

In addition to providing incentives for return visits, The Guestbook offers a suite of tools to keep guests returning to your property.
