Hotel’s free booking link integration on Google

Google is used by millions of tourists worldwide to search for hotels. In order to improve user experience and make it easier for both travelers and hotels, Google has unveiled a new feature in hotel search: a free booking link. Thanks to this new Google search capability, any hotel may now be found on the search engine without paying a fee or using Google adverts.

How hotels with free booking links will appear on the search?

When Google launched the free booking link function, the hotels with advertisements and hotels with free booking links were shown separately, with paid ads for the hotel appearing in the “featured choice” and free booking link hotels appearing in the “other/all option.” However, Google has altered the appearance; hotels with paid adverts will be labeled as Ads and will be displayed beneath the hotel name, while hotels with free booking links will not display any label.
As seen in the image below, the yellow highlighted Ad label indicates that this is a paid hotel ad, and the hotel beneath it does not have any label, it is a free booking link.

 

How it benefits the Hotels?

The free booking link will enable the user to go to your website directly and make their reservation there, increasing the number of travelers using your direct booking website as a result.
