The Mission of HotelWar.com :

The modern hospitality field is growing. The markets are becoming more and more competitive. Presently, many tour and travel companies, individual bookers, corporations, and small businesses are discovering that their company name actually hurts their chances of receiving a fair and competitive room rate. Hotels know that a company that accepts high rates once, will often do so again in the future. This tends to send these accounts and many others to online vehicles whom can book rooms confidentially. Doing so, also makes both parties suffer. The guest does not get good individual service and the special requests that they are used to, and the hotel loses profits to commissions. HotelWar.com  serves as a simple meeting ground. The concept of HotelWar.com  is based on the invisible hand of the marketplace, fair play and relationship building. HotelWar.com  guarantees the confidentiality of their affiliate members. It is up to the affiliate members to decide if, when and where they reveal their corporate or personal identity. All contact information will be kept private.

Normally, online travel companies require a contract that charges the hotel about 30% commission based on the revenue brought to the hotel through the total net value of the room rate. This rate has many names. It is often called "the special rate" or "best internet rate" or "lowest rate visible to the public". Many, if not all online "middlemen" companies and travel websites offer hotel rates that include this commissionable fee. For the traveller, this is seemingly inconsequential. For the hotel, it can be as devastating as losing a third of your house! In the interest of fair play, HotelWar.com  does not accept any commission of any kind. Even those based on hotel room revenue, food and beverage revenue, meeting or conference revenue, or any revenue forthcoming from the leads that HotelWar.com  provides. It is due to this that our rates are considered open and transparent. How many times did you wonder what your rate is at the front desk. Often the front desk agent cannot tell you because the commissionable margin makes you pay much more than the rate listed on their screen.
