Too good to be true?

Did you know that online booking platforms like Booking.com and Expedia hide their final price using lead-in rates (fake rates that make their prices seem cheaper than the hotel’s direct rates)? They then have the nerve to hoard their 20-30% commission on your booking. Furthermore, using these third-party platforms prevents you from earning hotel rewards, makes cancelations difficult, and minimizes your access to the hotel’s customer service team (nobody wants to deal with third party booking sites).

But we, at The Guestbook, want to share the love (a.k.a the hotel’s commission) with you! With our Google Chrome extension, you get to “triple dip” your rewards with 5% cash back, plus your existing hotel loyalty rewards and credit card points all for the same booking.

What's the best time of year to visit wine country?

The best time to visit wine country depends on the region. In Europe and North America's West Coast, the most popular months are May through June and September through October, when the weather is pleasant and vineyards are at their most beautiful. In South America, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, the prime wine season typically falls between February and April, during the Southern Hemisphere's harvest.

How close are these hotels to vineyards or wineries?

Distance varies by property. Some sit directly on vineyard grounds, while others are a short drive from the nearest tasting room. Make sure to check out each hotel's page for specifics.

Are these hotels located in one region, or multiple wine regions?

This collection features hotels across multiple wine regions, giving you options no matter where your trip takes you!
