Information: Hotel Availability: Hotel List

In the Hotel Availability: Hotel List dialog box for global distribution systems (GDS), you can see a list of hotels available at the specified location, sorted alphabetically by hotel name.

If you use Amadeus and no special rate agreements with hotels exist (see Legend: Negotiated Hotel Rates ), the initial list includes up to 30 hotels. You can display more hotels (depending on availability again up to 30 or 26 hotels) using the relevant pushbutton.

You can select a hotel in the list and the Hotel Availability: Room List dialog box appears.

In the Hotel Availability: Hotel List dialog box, you can find the following information.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

Legend

Negotiated hotel rates	If your company or your travel agency has negotiated special rates with hotel chains and they are specified in the Customizing settings, the rate codes are displayed here. In an availability query, the system checks to see whether negotiated rates are known by the reservation system and whether there are any offers that match those rates. If the reservation system Amadeus is used, only hotels that offer negotiated rates are displayed in the results list. The Further hotels pushbutton is inactive in this case. Via Standard query you can start a general availability query in which hotels for which there are no rate agreements are also considered.
Price limit	If a price limit has been specified in your Customizing settings, the maximum amount that must/should not be exceeded for an overnight stay at the selected location is displayed here. The price limit is not yet applied when the hotels are displayed in the hotel list. When the room list is displayed, however, the price limit is considered in the way specified in your Customizing settings. Therefore, in the availability list, rooms priced higher than the maximum amount can be: Displayed and selected, for example, in combination with a reason Displayed but not selected Suppressed
Room prices	The highest and the lowest price for a room available in the hotel are displayed.
Currency for room price	The room prices are displayed in the hotel currency when the Amadeus reservation system is connected.
