What is the CHOICE Expert Rating

CHOICE Expert rating

This is the product's overall performance score, based on key tests conducted by our industry experts in the CHOICE labs.

Good points

•  Good hotel comparison facilities
•  Searches return a high number of matches
•  Good support options

Bad points

•  No interactive map search
•  Not possible to specify a twin room instead of a double during search
•  Minimal hotel details available on the map
•  Limited detailed user review information available for each hotel
•  In 2016, the ACCC found that the parent company, Expedia, were forcing accommodation partners to provide them with the cheapest rates, via parity clauses. This stopped hotels and motels from offering cheaper rates on their own sites, over the phone or at the hotel desk. These clauses have since been removed.
