Hotel BookingAPI is the primary API within the TCTT Hotel API ecosystem. It handles the entire booking process, allowing hotels to be booked in real-time in as few as three steps. The API supports generating hotel lists, confirming bookings, retrieving booking details, managing cancellations, and obtaining detailed booking information.
Hotel Booking API methods
The Hotel BookingAPI offers three essential methods to streamline booking functions: Hotel Availability, CheckRates, and Bookings.
Hotel Availability
This method is utilized to request room availability, allowing for the application of various filters and special features before submitting an availability request.
With flexible date search capabilities, customers can retrieve available rates for a specified number of days before and after the check-in date.
The generated response includes a list of hotels, detailing different room types, board types, and rates available for those hotels—extending beyond just the selected dates.
BookingAPI prices are final, incorporating all supplements and discounts, eliminating the need for additional price calculations.
Additionally, the availability response may include cancellation fees, providing amounts and relevant dates during the initial booking step.
CheckRate
This API should be invoked to reconfirm the rate details and obtain the cancellation policy, as well as any associated rate comments.
