Step 2: Book hotel page

The processes involved in booking travel for yourself or for someone else or for multiple travellers are virtually the same. One key difference between the three different selections is that different profile data would be used for each one - either your profile data would be drawn into the booking, the profile data of someone else or that of multiple travellers. The other key difference is that in the case of booking for multiple travellers, after you have completed the booking information for the first traveller, the process must then be repeated for the other travellers.

To complete the Book Hotel Page:

1. You can search by Location or Office. Complete one of the boxes.
2. If required, enter an amount into the distance field to filter your results further. For example, entering a distance of 5 miles would bring up hotels within a 5 mile radius of the location you have selected.
3. If there is a specific hotel that you would like to book, use the Hotel part name field. You can enter part of the hotel's name or it's full name. For example, typing "hil" or "hilton" would bring up Hilton hotels in the area that you have specified.
4. You can view the area that you have selected in further detail using the Google Map. Use the plus and minus buttons to zoom in or out. You can also view the area at street level (as if you were standing outside) by clicking and dragging the Google "Pegman" onto the map.
5. Complete the Check-in date box by clicking on the calendar icon and selecting the required date. Alternatively, you may type the date into the box.
6. Either enter in the number of nights that are needed for the booking in the Nights field or choose your check in and check out dates at the same time by clicking and dragging on the Check-in date calendar.

   Tip: If you have a rail journey already added to your itinerary, the check in and check out boxes will automatically be filled with the rail outbound and inbound dates.

7. Enter amounts into the Min. rate and Max. rate boxes.
8. Expand the Advanced options section and select any facilities that are required. Click Search to proceed to the Choose Hotel page.
