Enter your trip details and Engine surfaces the best hotels for your group. Select the ones you like, then set up a room block with negotiated rates or suggest hotels your guests can book on their own. Everything stays tracked in one place from the first invite to check-in day. Is Engine free to use? Yes. Engine is completely free for group coordinators. There are no membership fees, no agent-assist fees, and no obligation to book. We earn a commission from hotels when bookings are made, so you never pay to use the platform. You get the savings, hotels get the bookings. What's the difference between a room block and having guests book directly with the hotel? A room block is a reserved set of rooms at a negotiated rate, ideal when you want price certainty and guaranteed availability. The alternative is suggesting hotels your guests book on their own, with no block required. Engine supports both depending on what works best for your group. How quickly can I get hotel proposals for a room block? Most groups hear back from hotels the same day. Engine's platform sends your request out to hotels instantly and brings proposals back to you in one place so you can compare options without the back-and-forth. How much can I save on group hotel rates? Groups can save up to 22% compared to public rates when booking through Engine. The exact savings depend on the property, your dates, and your event. Because Engine works directly with hotels, we can negotiate rates you will not find on standard booking sites. Which hotel chains can I book through Engine? Engine gives you access to over 1 million hotels across the US and beyond, including all major chains. If a hotel takes group bookings, you can request a proposal through Engine. Can group members book their own rooms, or does one person book for everyone? Both options are available. For most groups, the coordinator sets everything up and each guest reserves their own room. If you prefer, you can also book on behalf of your entire group in one go. What happens after a room block is confirmed? Once your room block is confirmed, invite your guests and Engine walks them through everything they need to book their room. You can see who has booked, who has not, and follow up directly with your group as check-in approaches. Does Engine handle group travel for non-corporate events? Yes. Engine works for any group that needs hotel accommodations, including weddings, sports tournaments, disaster relief deployments, class reunions, and more. You do not need to be a corporate travel manager to use Engine. What if my group's plans change after booking? Cancellation and modification policies vary by hotel and contract type. Our team will walk you through the terms before you commit to anything. We are with you throughout the process, not just at the start. How do I book hotels for a large group? To book hotels for a large group, enter your trip details on Engine and we surface the best-matching hotels for your group. Most large group requests get proposals back from hotels the same day, and everything stays tracked in one place from the first invite to check-in. Can I make group hotel reservations online? You can make group hotel reservations online with Engine from start to finish, without having to call a single hotel. Enter your dates and group size, compare hotels, then either lock in a room block or send guests a link to reserve their own rooms directly. Every reservation stays visible in one place as it comes in. How many hotel rooms do I need for a group booking? A group booking on Engine generally starts at 10 or more rooms. If you need 9 rooms or fewer, you can suggest hotels to your group and invite them to book instantly. For groups of 10 rooms and up, Engine helps you set up a room block at a negotiated rate and a shared booking link your guests can book through.
