Agoda lists the largest number of stays in this group by its own count, over 6 million hotels, resorts, villas, homes and BnBs. Agoda says travelers can save up to 80% through Member Offers, Last-Minute Deals and other promotions, and over 28 million verified reviews help you judge a property you have never heard of. The app also books flights from over 400 airlines, stores vouchers and maps for print-free check-in, and lets you manage or edit bookings anytime, with 24/7 customer support in many languages. You can book in 39 languages and currencies, which helps when splitting costs with travelers from other countries. Where Agoda falls short is clarity: its app description says little about how member tiers work or which rates are refundable, so you need to read each room's cancellation policy and compare the total, with taxes, against Booking.com or Google Hotels.
