If it’s one thing that we’ve learned growing up is that plans are fickle. You plan a trip with a bunch of friends a month in advance and by the time the actual trip is supposed to take place, you are left with two mates if you are lucky.
So, if you’ve made bookings in advance, how do you cancel your non-refundable hotel room? This is where Hoken enters the fray. Hoken is a travel expert that specializes in their hotel room marketplace, an exchange where travelers can purchase hotel rooms with the ability to sell, speculate or redeem hotel stays. We are dedicated to helping its customers save money and we take this very seriously.
Here’s what you can do to cancel the rooms that you’ve booked.
1Get a Refund
The first thing you can do is contact the hotel to cancel your bookings and ask for a refund. Even is it is advertised as non-refundable, if you call and talk to someone on the phone and explain your situation, you can still potentially get refunded. Generally, cancellations are allowed up to 24 hours prior to check-in, but to be safe, research the hotel, read the reviews or try contacting their front desk to know about their cancelation policy.
Nevertheless, if the hotel won’t budge on their no refund policy, try to see if you can negotiate with them. Sometimes you can rebook the stay in the future at no additional cost (and maybe cancel that for a full refund later) or you can get a credit to use on a future stay.
2Accept your Losses
If the hotel doesn’t provide a refund, the next thing you can do is roll with the punches and accept your loss. Depending on the price you paid for the hotel room, canceling it can be a hefty setback. So, we recommend doing your research before booking your hotel room and not exercising this option unless no option is left.
3Use Hoken
