As a reminder, this change allows guests to search and book a room directly from Google’s interface (specifically Google Search, Google Maps, and Google Assistant). An advertising budget is not needed and there are no commissions involved. In addition, no management is required on the property’s end as the rezStream integration automatically displays the booking engine’s availability. Prior to this Google update, a property was required to sign up and pay Google using their Hotel Ads platform.
*Participating properties on Google Hotels free booking links rank first under the “All Options” section.
