Pros and cons

Pros

  • Hotels are the clear focus, listed as the only product at hotels.
  • Founded in 2001, so the company behind the site has a long trading record.
  • Support runs on email and phone, which covers both email and phone.
  • The overall score of 8.6 sits well above the midpoint.

Cons

  • The product list is limited to hotels, hotels, where Emirates covers flights, hotels and tours in one place.
  • No flight booking alongside the room, unlike Emirates with flights, hotels and tours.
  • Support is limited to email and phone, with no live chat listed.
  • Holiday packages and tours are absent from the range, unlike Čedok with flights, packages and tours.

Scored 8.6 / 10 by NomadCue.

Who it suits

  • Families who have already sorted flights and trains and just need a room
  • Readers who want a single product rather than a broad basket
  • Groups comparing rooms on a stay ranking where hotels dominate at 87.7%

Who should look elsewhere

  • Travelers who want flights, transfers and parking in the same basket, who should look at Emirates with flights, hotels and tours
  • Guided tour and small group travelers, who should look at Intrepid Travel with packages, tours and cruise
  • Ski and cruise holiday shoppers, who should look at Čedok with flights, packages and tours

The company behind it

Details Hotels sits under a parent company that has been trading since 2001, which matters when you are handing over card details for a room you have not seen. The team is based in Portugal, so the working day sits in a European time zone, and bookings can be run from there in a different one. The product range is deliberately narrow: hotels are the only thing on offer, listed under hotels, so there is no flight, transfer or tour add-on to work through at checkout. Support is the part families notice most, and Details Hotels offers email and phone. That means a group leader can email a question and still pick up a phone if a room is not right on arrival, without filling in a web form and waiting. On hotels specifically, this site sits among a crowded field: the stay ranking shows hotels on 398 brands, and the hotels ranking is wide again at 328, so the choice of room type is broad even though the choice of travel products is not. Email and phone both rank strongly in the stay field, so reaching the team is not the hard part of a group booking.

How Details Hotels compares

Frequently asked questions

What does Details Hotels actually sell?+

Hotels, and only hotels. The product list on record names hotels as the single entry under hotels, so there is nothing else to add to a booking. If you need a flight or an airport transfer arranged through the same company, that is not what this site is set up for.

How long has Details Hotels been trading?+

The company behind the site was founded in 2001, which puts a long operating history behind the checkout. For a family booking a room months ahead, that history is a reasonable reassurance that the booking will still be honoured.

Can I phone someone about a booking?+

Yes. Support runs on email and phone, so both email and phone are available. Phone is the faster option if a room turns out to be wrong on arrival, since a group with luggage does not want to wait on a written reply.

Which markets does this site cover?+

Details Hotels books rooms in Portugal, its home market, with the team based in Portugal. Across the wider stay market the typical site covers 100 countries, though that figure describes the category rather than this brand, so read it as context.

How do the prices compare with other hotel sites?+

Prices sit in the band most hotel bookers see. The middle of the range runs €2.16 to €8.60, and a typical daily rate across the market is €6.50 per day, which is the figure to hold against a quote from elsewhere.

How many hotel bookers does this sit among?+

Details Hotels shares a category with a large field. The hotels ranking covers 328 brands and the stay ranking covers 398, so expect plenty of room types and price bands to compare, even though the travel products on offer are narrow.

What is Details Hotels not suited to?+

It is not a trip booker. Unlike Emirates with flights, hotels and tours or Čedok with flights, packages and tours, there are no flights, transfers, tours, ski or cruise products here, so anyone arranging a whole holiday needs a second company to handle the journey itself.
