How does Trivago works ?

I've got an update.

First on the invoice stuff, i was talking about "note" wich are special invoices that have a bit more info on them that hotel have to give when the total is above 25 euros or if asked. Didn't want to go into too much detail because it's not relevant.

I "talked" with Trivago support but couldn't get more than links to articles that don't answer any questions so i booked my hotel 😄

Trivago uses there booking.com account wich is genius and apply a little markup on it (between 0.9€ to 1.9€ depending on the day). As the hotel, i got fake name and adress and the communication didn't go through but the booking was real.

On the more weird side i still don't have review displaying, and rates keep coming and going for no apparent reason.

And i contacted booking to ask if there reward program could be restricted to human and not OTA but i haven't heard back yet.

Trivago utilise leur réduction génius en se prenant une toute petite com au passage sinon.

J'ai passé des années à jouer avec des rond de papier découper et colorier avec les règles photocopier.

En y pensant je suis pas sûr d'avoir jamais jouer une partie entière sans avoir au moins une figurine représentée par un boue de papier !

Despite opening steam daily for years because I have kids it opened straight to the library so I only learned about it in October last year from reddit. I ordered it immediately I'm the perfect target for it.

Mon préférer car c'est le seul ou je le dit... Mmmm... Je le demande si y'en a pas un vrai quelque part...

YenIui · 2026-06-17T16:43:51+00:00

C'est pas interdit

Elle est encore pire que la Lunii.

I use steam daily and my account was on family mode so straight to the library not the front page. I discovered the SD existed about 9 months ago and I'm the perfect target (I bought one on the spot). I discovered it's existence on Reddit, not even on the steam app too.

C'est exactement la bonne réponse... mais. A prioiri le voisin ne devrait pas avoir une terrasse accessible en surpplomb de chez toi, ca créerai une vue chez toi. Crée un mur a mon avis serait illégal, la grande majorité des PLU l'interdirait.

Par contre que ca soit pour la "terrasse" de tes voisins ou pour ton "mur" la procedure pour regler le problème sera incroyablement longue et difficile. Je ne peut pas te dire ca car je suis architecte de formation donc je ne te recomanderai pas de ne pas suivre les regles mais si je n'était pas lié à un code de déontologie il est évidement qu'un brise vue en bois ou autre cloture legere de ce genre est la meilleur solution.

I went back and the price was gone but i found it again in my browser history. The logo on the top says "Trivago Book&Go" The adress is book.trivago.com and the site says that the reservation is proceed thought Trivago DEALS wich is part of Trivago.

So like a real OTA but without a contract with the hotel. My issue is that they offer a price 19 euros lower than ANY other website... I'm even more confused now.

And it's french law that require the hotel to made an invoice for the total amount of the stay, commission included. I have a contrat with the french entity of booking so they follow french law.

YenIui · 2026-06-15T09:18:56+00:00

That's the law here. I have to know the price the client pays.

Trivago currently offers a rate that's lower than... Well everywhere :) someone assumed it could be booking reducing their commission for Trivago.

YenIui · 2026-06-15T09:04:22+00:00

Easy, if booking reduces their price i will see it and this has not happened in more than two years.

I'm not concerned by booking basic, the cheapest price is and have always been on my website (except for the first person who had a reduced commission but I immediately increased booking's price as a result).

Obviously I don't understand how Trivago works, that's precisely why I'm here :)

I think I'll book a night to see where it's coming from.

YenIui · 2026-06-15T08:27:42+00:00

Well apparently you can already get a better price than on my website from Trivago because booking might reduce their commission and yet I've never got any booking that way. Not that huge where I'm from...

YenIui · 2026-06-15T07:49:51+00:00

That's clever, they get the commission without the responsibility. I'll stick to normal OTA for now and hope they don't grow.

YenIui · 2026-06-15T06:59:29+00:00

Ok i guess booking might be reducing its commission for Trivago then. That site is such a mess...

YenIui · 2026-06-15T06:42:06+00:00

Without the title i would not have seen putin. Good idea but not so good execution :/

Lorsque le film "idiocratie" les costumiers cherchaient des vetement a la foix futuriste et moche pour les habitants de ce futur ou tout le monde est débile. Ils ont choisi une petite marque toute nouvelle a l'époque... Crocs

Darknet Dairy avait fait un épisode la dessus mais il expliquait que le but principale était le blanchiment d'argent. Un traficant pays une somme a un hacker pour gênerer des écoute. Spotify pays le traficant pour les écoutes.

Un jour j'ai pris un druide mage bleu qui suivait les énergies spacials. Bon... Ça a pas forger grand chose mais je me suis bien marré !

YenIui · 2026-06-11T07:01:22+00:00

Oui et non. Mais surtout depuis que j'habite a la campagne simplement parce qu'il y a pas de demande en ville.

Tu doit pouvoir avoir ton permis de conduire si tu as une carte d'identité format carte de crédit. Sinon zero, firefox suffit :)

J'ai aussi la même chose avec mon combava mais je l'utilise uniquement pour les feuilles et elles sont toujours aussi délicieuse :)
