Frequently Asked Questions
Google does not charge hotels for clicks or placement through its free booking links. However, fees from your booking engine or connectivity provider may still apply. Check your provider's pricing to understand the total cost of activating the service.
No. Activating Google Free Booking Links does not guarantee visibility for every search, more website traffic, or confirmed reservations. Google decides which links to show based on factors such as price accuracy, the value offered to travellers, and the booking page experience. Competitive rates, room availability, and a smooth booking process can help turn visibility into bookings.
Google Free Booking Links are unpaid listings that can display your hotel's official booking option alongside other hotel booking options. Google Hotel Ads are paid placements that use advertising bids. Free booking links do not require a Google advertising budget, and running paid Hotel Ads does not improve the ranking of your free links.
