Check your dispute first

Check your options

Hotel booking site complaints often involve a platform, hotel, payment provider, and sometimes another country. Route clarity matters before escalation.

For a booking made through Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb or another service, check the confirmation to see who supplied the accommodation and who took your payment.

What to do next

  1. 1Collect booking confirmation, platform messages, hotel messages, photos, cancellation terms, and payment record.
  2. 2Use the platform support route first and ask for a specific remedy.
  3. 3Check chargeback and cross-border help before assuming Irish small claims applies.
