    HolidayCheck

    Trustworthy, authentic, successful

    HolidayCheck is the biggest travel and holiday portal in the German-speaking area of Europe. HolidayCheck helps people to find the right hotel, make contact with others and book their holiday directly. What makes this possible is a giant database with over three million hotel ratings, photos and videos. In order to guarantee you the best price for the hotel you choose, HolidayCheck compares the offers available from 86 travel companies. What’s more, HolidayCheck was the only hotel rating portal to be graded ‘good’ (1.8) by Germany’s independent consumer organisation Stiftung Warentest in the 2/2010 issue of the test magazine. Book your holiday with confidence at HolidayCheck!

    When you take a holiday, why not rate it afterwards? After all, if you are planning a trip, reading the views of people who have already been there is a lot more informative than the flowery promises made in the catalogues. The biggest hotel rating community on the German-speaking internet gives you travel reports written by travellers for travellers. What’s more, the portal is growing all the time with around a thousand new ratings coming in every day.

    100% authentic. The site’s authenticity is underlined by a huge archive of personal holiday photos, videos and tips received from holidaymakers. This enables visitors to the portal to put together a picture of their dream holiday and book it directly on HolidayCheck.de.

    Search, compare and book the best deal. Of course, for the perfect holiday you need the right price. HolidayCheck operates its own online travel agency and compares the prices offered by 86 of the biggest travel companies, giving you the best hotels at the lowest price – with a best price guarantee! HolidayCheck’s online travel agency is also TÜV-approved, so your booking is absolutely safe.

    Spreading around the world. Fired up by the success of its German platform, HolidayCheck is out to conquer the world! There are now established HolidayCheck travel communities in ten other languages, and Poland even has its own team. The Czech Republic and China are poised for take-off and aim to join in the successful internationalisation of the Holiday Check brand.

    Check the ship, the hire car … HolidayCheck now covers a whole lot more than hotels. Cruise ship ratings, for example, were added in 2007. MietwagenCheck.de compares the offers published by the biggest car hire operators and brokers. If you are looking for the lowest price for vehicle hire, MietwagenCheck.de guarantees outstanding price security, price transparency and ease of booking.

    Top marks go to HolidayCheck! Even independent testing agencies are in no doubt as to the benefits, prices and service offered by HolidayCheck. Stiftung Warentest (Issue 02/2010) awarded HolidayCheck top place in its review of hotel booking portals. Issue 1/2010 of Clever Reisen describes HolidayCheck as ‘an indispensable source’ of information and again awarded it top marks (‘yery good’) in its review of six holiday portals.

    User award. Given that we are on the receiving end of so much praise, it’s only fair that we hand some out as well from time to time! Every March, HolidayCheck selects its 99 most popular hotels from the previous year. The HolidayCheck Award is a real user prize, too. The only opinions that count are those of the people who submit their ratings. The award has now become a well-established feature in the tourism industry on a par with the TUI Holly and the Neckermann Primo.
