I made an online reservation through Guest Reservations for a one night stay at a hotel. When the confirmation came back, it was for the wrong dates and for 2 nights instead of one. In addition, there was an extra $200 added on to the bill. I immediately called Guest Reservations. It was a 20 to 30 minute phone call of them telling me they can't change / correct the error and can't refund the money. I said I would dispute the charge. I was put on a lengthy hold. They came back and said they could refund part of the money. When I continued to request complete reimbursement, I was put on another lengthy hold and then told that if the hotel agreed to reverse charges I could get a refund. I immediately called the hotel who told me that they had already been contacted by Guest Reservations, and had just sent an email to GR saying that they would refund any money from that transaction. However, 10 days later, I only ended up getting a partial refund from GR with the balance of about $300 being kept by GR. I attempted to contact GR. My email bounced back and there was no live person option on their automated telephone menu. I have now taken the matter up through my bank and will dispute the charge.
Never ever use Guest Reservations. They are counting on people not to dispute fraudelent charges and hidden fees.

Hi Audrey,

We're sorry your Guest Reservations experience didn't meet your expectations. We take customer satisfaction seriously and want to help every traveler have a great experience.

We understand you were surprised by the additional fees. Like most hotels and other travel agencies, we charge applicable tax recovery charges and a service fee to cover 24/7 support, service and platform features, and operating costs. We always disclose all fees and tax recovery charges prior to booking and require customers to confirm the total amount.

We do our best to be transparent about policies and make sure they're clearly stated on our website so you know where you stand. However, we are happy to work with you on the issues you raised. Please email customercare@guestreservations.com with your reservation details including the email address you used along with your reservation number (beginning with “R”), and we will do our best to resolve your situation.

Sincerely,
Chantal Reynolds
Guest Reservations Customer Care

UPDATE They did get back to me after this review.
I noticed recurring charges from Greater Good on my credit card. I have contacted the company several times via their email requesting explanation of what the money's going for and requesting donation receipts. I have yet to receive a meaningful reply. Just auto responses without information.

Hi Audrey, I was able to locate your email. I apologize for the delay in response but we are experiencing higher than normal email volume currently and working as quickly as we can to respond. I have responded to your email but also wanted to respond here as well. The charges you are seeing are from GreaterGood Charities. Not GreaterGood.com. I have provided their email address to you so you can get the information needed as you requested.
