Can I check-in later or leave earlier than the dates I booked?
Cancellation policies for vary by hotel and room type. If you know you will be arriving after check-in time, please call the hotel directly to let them know that you will be checking in later than normal.
If you arrive at the hotel after your scheduled check-in date, you will not receive any partial refund for the nights you did not stay from the hotel or from Hotwire. Likewise, if you leave early, you will not receive any reimbursement for the unused portion of your reservation. This is because all Hot Rate® Hotel bookings are final and cannot be cancelled, refunded, changed, exchanged, or transferred.
If you are worried about emergencies that will require you to change your plans, you may want to consider purchasing Trip Protection - a low-cost insurance program that provides trip cancellation/interruption coverage.
