Can my customers search for hotels near an airport or a well known landmark?

Yes, customers can usually search for hotels near an airport, city centre, station or well known landmark through a hotel booking API. The search can use a place name or location information to return suitable properties in the surrounding area, making it easier for customers to choose accommodation close to where they need to be.

The exact search choices depend on the hotel supplier and the location details available through its API. Some suppliers support searches around specific landmarks, while others may only support a city, district or airport. Smaller attractions and recently opened places may not be recognised, and the distance shown can sometimes be an estimate rather than a walking or driving distance.

Results may also differ between suppliers because each one has its own hotel coverage and property information. A hotel that is physically close to a landmark may not appear if the supplier does not offer it, has no rooms available for the selected dates or has incomplete location details. Customers should still check the hotel address and map position before booking.

Ask glideFares which location search options are supported by the hotel suppliers connected to your portal, then test the airports and landmarks your customers request most often.
