What it does
trivago compares hotel offers from multiple booking sites. A search starts with a destination, hotel or landmark, dates, and the number of guests and rooms, with favourites and signed-in member benefits available alongside the comparison.
Use the same dates and occupancy when comparing an offer. A city-wide average is a different kind of information from a price for a particular hotel and room. trivago labels its destination price indicators as average nightly ranges for three-star hotels, useful for an initial budget comparison rather than a quote for the eventual stay.
The city and destination directories provide a starting point when the exact hotel is undecided. Favourites can keep possibilities together, while member prices and perks require signing in. Country and currency settings also matter before judging a displayed amount. Once a hotel and offer look suitable, read the booking provider’s room, meal, payment and cancellation details together. A comparison price only becomes meaningful when those conditions match the stay being planned.
