Here are 6 reasons why you should use Booking.com for your next trip:-1. FREE CANCELLATION!
Who doesn't like free things? With Booking.com, nearly all rooms offer you free cancellation once you have booked a room. (though term and conditions are applied) That's why you have to read and choose wisely. When you book a room it will state there how many weeks or periods the free cancellation service can be used at no extra surcharge.
The good thing about Free cancellation is it gives you more flexibility and more choices of rooms which is convenience for you for when you want to change your mind on the first booking.
2. HONEST REVIEWS FROM PREVIOUS TRAVELLERS.
When you book a room through booking.com, it is easy for you to click and review all comments and posts from previous travellers, Basically, you have to put extra time reading all reviews. This is where Free cancellation is useful. If you found a room near a common place like eating places or places of interest, just book it and please make sure they have FREE CANCELLATION. This is to LOCK the room you want, which has a cheap price and the room has good reviews and highly recommended by others.

4. LOYALTY REWARDS
Okay! here's the thing about getting Booking.com rewards, the rewards is called GENIUS rewards. Booking Genius is a rewards program offer to their most frequent bookers. As a customer you will get 10% off their best available rates offered by properties who are taking part in the program. FREQUENT BOOKERS? I don't travel a lot and I don't travel far. But, eventually I have become one of GENIUS members of Booking.com because I always book using Booking.com, though I cancelled many of my trips. Many of my trips were to Miri, Sarawak city ( A city nearby to where I am living now). To get points to be nominated as GENIUS member is to give reviews every time after your stay. This will automatically shows the system that you are very committed about using the website/ app and it can be considered as a reward for helping to make the website reliable and trustworthy with an honest opinion from real traveller. It's a win win situation, You give reviews you are helping others and others are helping you with their reviews. By doing so, you are still a winner because being nominated as GENIUS member, you'll get many benefits, freebies and discounts.
5. CONVENIENCE AND FLEXIBLE
When we talk about free cancellation, there's another great thing about booking.com. You don't have to pay immediately online, but your card will be charged once you cancel your booking after a certain period given for FREE CANCELLATION. Nevertheless, they will ask for your cards detail in order to confirm your booking but they are not going to charge you directly. One best thing about this feature is that when you plan a trip ahead but you don't have the money at the first place, you always get to lock the best room without paying anything. PAY when you arrive. Here's a tip, for when you arrive at the place, do try to ask for a room changed. It is worth asking because if that place had signed up with BOOKING.com, possibility is that they have many other cancelled booking and you could get in a bigger room for the same price of a small room you have booked online. Tried it! Either you use card or cash during check- in that's depend on the place you book.
6. CHEAP PLACES FOR BACKPACKERS
There are variety of backpackers home and lodges (cheap one) for you to choose from in Booking.com as they don't really charge a lot to business or properties owner so it is helping small business to expand and you still get your cheap room as properties owners do not have to pay a big amount to advertise their room in Booking.com
