With the increasing number of booking platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com, many travellers automatically turn to these sites for their accommodation needs. But did you know that booking directly through our website offers a range of exclusive benefits? Here’s why choosing to book your stay with Simply Accommodation is the smarter option, whether you’re staying for business, leisure, or mid-term stays.
1. Lower Rates and No Hidden Fees
When you book through third-party platforms like Airbnb or Booking.com, you’ll often encounter service fees and hidden costs that bump up the price. By booking directly with us, you avoid these extra fees, allowing you to secure a better rate for the same quality accommodation.
For instance, if you’re a contractor looking for affordable accommodation for longer stays, avoiding these fees can result in significant savings over time.
2. Flexible Booking and Cancellation Policies
Third-party platforms usually have strict booking and cancellation terms. By booking directly with Simply Accommodation, we can offer more flexible policies, which are ideal for guests with uncertain schedules, such as contractors working on long-term projects or aviation trainees needing flexibility for extended stays.
Our team can adjust your booking based on your needs, offering you peace of mind that other platforms might not provide.
3. Better Customer Support
When booking through an online travel agency (OTA), you’re often one of thousands of customers, making it difficult to get personalised support. Booking directly with us ensures you get dedicated customer service before, during, and after your stay. You’ll be dealing directly with our team, which can resolve any issues or requests far more quickly than through an OTA.
Whether you’re a contractor with specific requirements or a family relocating temporarily, our personalised support can make your stay much smoother.
4. Exclusive Discounts and Offers
We love rewarding guests who choose to book directly with us. When you book through our website, you may gain access to special discounts, offers, or perks that aren’t available on Airbnb, Booking.com, or other third-party platforms.
For example, we frequently offer discounts for mid-term stays, especially for contractors or corporate bookings. You won’t find these offers listed anywhere else!
5. Direct Communication with Our Team
When booking through a third-party platform, any questions or concerns you have about your stay are typically communicated through a middleman. This can delay responses or cause miscommunication. When you book directly with us, you can speak to our team right away, ensuring your queries are answered swiftly, and special requests can be accommodated more easily.
6. Tailored Stays for Contractors and Long-Term Guests
If you’re booking accommodation for contractors or staff who need housing for weeks or months, Simply Accommodation offers tailored solutions. With our direct booking option, we can customise your stay, whether you need specific facilities, flexible cleaning schedules, or even special rates for long-term stays.
Airbnb and Booking.com often focus on short-term rentals, but we’re set up to cater to your specific needs, ensuring your stay is hassle-free and affordable.
7. Support Local Businesses
By booking directly, you’re not only saving money but also supporting a local business rather than contributing to the commission fees of large international companies. When you book with Simply Accommodation, you’re helping a local company thrive, enabling us to keep providing excellent service and high-quality accommodation.
