TravelHotels
Hotels.com is one of the largest global online travel agencies, owned by Expedia Group. Bookings code as travel on every card we track. The honest catch: hotel chains typically do NOT credit Hotels.com stays toward elite-night or status counts, and many properties exclude OTA stays from earning their loyalty points — so a Hilton/Marriott/Hyatt loyalist almost always books direct. Hotels.com's own One Key Rewards (formerly Hotels.com Rewards) is now unified with Expedia's OneKeyCash and stacks across the Expedia family.
