How Does Axel Find Hotel Deals?

Axel finds hotel deals by accessing private, hidden, and off-market hotel rates that are not always available on public booking sites.

Public Hotel Prices Include Extra Costs

The hotel rate you see on public booking sites often includes the cost of public distribution and advertising.

Hotels may be willing to sell rooms at better rates through private supply channels. Axel can access those channels and show eligible rates to travelers booking through Axel.

Private, Hidden, And Off-Market Rates

Axel can access:

• private hotel rates
• hidden hotel rates
• off-market hotel rates

These rates can be lower than public booking channels, depending on the property, dates, room type, and availability.

Many Axel hotel rates can come in 10-40% lower than public booking channels, but savings are not guaranteed.

Pay-Later And Pay-Now Rates

Axel can show different hotel payment types.

Some hotel rates are pay-later, with payment due within 3 days of check-in. Other rates are pay-now and may be discounted further.

The available payment option depends on the hotel and rate.

What You See Before Booking

Before booking a hotel, users can see important details such as:

• hotel name
• room type
• cancellation policy
• taxes and fees
• payment timing
