Hot off the presses! This just in!

‍

There is a cool new site that allows you to get 5% back on hotel bookings.

‍

Introducing The Guestbook

‍

The best part is that you can make your booking directly with the hotel (or through The Guestbook website). As long as you have registered with TheGuestbook.com and your emails match, you are in business.

‍

The Guestbook program is available in 47 countries and offered at over 450 boutique and independent properties.

‍

What do you do:

‍

Go to TheGuestbook.com and sign up.

‍

Browse their hotels and book through The Guestbook website or with the hotel directly (ELIN’S TIP: I like to book directly with the hotels. I find that chances of getting a better room or an upgrade are higher, by booking directly.)

‍

Make sure that the email you use to book with matches the email(s) you have registered with The Guestbook.

‍

Stay and enjoy. Submit your reservation to The Guestbook at the time of booking, or your final bill upon your return. Check your PayPal for the cash refund! You also have the option to redeem for various gift cards or Bitcoins. (Note: At time of publishing, the US redemption options for gift cards are far greater than those available to Canadian/Global members.) .

‍

There is also a “sync machine” option that looks for hotel confirmations in your inbox and automatically submits them on your behalf.
