CheapyTrip - Hotel direct bookings, Automated.

by•
Booking.com and Expedia take up to 30% commission from hotels. That cost gets passed to you. The cheapest way to book a hotel has always been contacting them directly - but who has time to send dozens of emails and wait for replies? That's exactly what Cheapy Trip does for you. Tell us where you're going and when. We handle all the emails. You get real offers straight from the hotel - usually 25% cheaper than what you'd find on any website. No middleman. No commission. Just you and the hotel.

This started from a simple frustration - I kept seeing people (including myself) overpaying for hotels just because contacting them directly felt like too much effort. The math is pretty brutal: Booking.com and Expedia charge hotels 15-30% commission. Hotels know direct bookings are cheaper for everyone. They just never hear from travelers directly. So I built the thing that was missing: a tool that sends the emails for you, handles the follow-ups, and brings back real offers from hotels . I'm 19, building this solo while finishing high school in Rome. Would love to hear your honest feedback - what would make you actually use this over just opening Booking.com out of habit?

how long does it usually take to hear back from hotels after you submit the request?

 Hi Esila! For the first offers, no more than 2-3 hours usually, and we're currently implementing a notifications system, so you don't have to constantly open the website to check for updates.

booked a hotel in Lisbon through them last month and saved almost 40 euros compared to booking.com, the email exchange was way less painful than i expected

 Hey Yaren, thank you so much! I'd really like to hear how your experience was, could you share your email/number? Alternatively, this is CheapyTrip's email: .

So you do the email back and forth for me, but how does the pricing actually work on your end? Is there a flat fee per booking, a percentage, or something else?

 Hi Talha! Yes, the email exchange is totally automated. There is not flat fee. We don't earn any money from fees or commissions.

How long does it usually take to hear back from the hotels after you send the requests out?

 Hi Hasan! For the first offers, no more than 2-3 hours usually. In addition we're currently implementing a notifications system, so you don't have to constantly open the website to check for updates.
