What is Booking.com: Hotels and more?

Each listing includes details like the a one to five-star rating, the price, and photos. Users can sort the listings by rating, popularity or distance. There are also filters related to price range, hotel chains, amenities, and specific location. Besides hotels, people can set up car rentals as well.

The menu opens to reveal various options such as joining the loyalty program and reading travel articles.
The Booking.com app is similar to Airbnb, TripAdvisor, Hotels.com, and Trivago. It has an overwhelming majority of positive reviews, and the complaints are few and far between.
People mostly complain about slightly higher prices than other apps and not being able to use debit cards. Booking.com Travel Deals is rated E for everyone and is the highest-rated travel app and Editor’s Choice in the travel category.
Is Booking.com: Hotels and more safe for my kids?
Booking.com Travel Deals is safe for kids but is not a suitable app for children and young teens because it involves planning travel destinations and accommodations.
Most of the people using this app are adults but there is no age requirement to download the app, but if users wish to book a hotel, they need to enter credit card information. Users can leave reviews on the app to share photos and their experience; there is no chat option.
The content on the app is suitable for children, although they might find it boring. People can report if a hotel listing is missing information or if a review is helpful, but there is not an option to report inappropriate behavior on the app.
Individuals can share photos of their hotel stay on the app, but that’s about it. There isn’t a way for users to connect with each other besides reading the reviews, so kids should be safe on the app. However, if your child has access to credit card information, they could easily spend a decent amount of money on a booking!
