HB GLOSSARY
Suitability of each room for the whole family is determined automatically, taking into account the number of adults and exact ages of children. Only suitable rooms are offered to be booked online
HB GLOSSARY

Many websites hide taxes and fees for additional guests, showing only base occupancy rates and making it hard to compare real prices.
We, in contrast, show real total prices that cover taxes and all guests, including children.

HB GLOSSARY

When searching for a family, include all guests into the same group. Our system will offer to book either 1 large room which is suitable or 2+ smaller rooms when needed with connection or adjacency where possible. Sometimes multiple smaller rooms are a better deal than 1 large room.

Only when searching for multiple families that must stay in separate rooms, enter each family as a separate group.
