Hotel & Air Bookings


A personal note from Kenneth Tin:

Hi and thanks for visiting this page. I use Agoda myself. I’ve used them for years now.

When I began putting together a travel site to share my experiences, pictures, videos and tips, I didn’t even look to see what other partners are available for travel. I picked the one I use for myself, the one that I’d recommend to my family and to my friends.

There’s a reason why. I used to use another service and for a while it seemed great. But the first time I ran into a problem it wasn’t handled well and ultimately I had to initiate a charge back in order to receive what was due to me.

Agoda, on the other hand, has been stellar in their performance. I travel a lot! In doing so, eventually something will come up that will require assistance. Case in point. I once was bumped off a flight. It was overbooked. I called Agoda, just to ask them to let the hotel know I’d be a day late. To my surprise, they not only took care of that, but requested a refund for the missed night and had that credited back to me. That’s 100%+ service to me.

So I selected them as a partner and present them to you. In life nothing is 100% but a business which provides both great prices & superior service are worth patronizing.

So click the link, search for your hotel and decide for yourself :)

Recently I’ve also started using Booking.Com as well. Sometimes I’ll find a hotel not listed on Agoda listed on Booking or a different room availability for certain dates. Both offer rooms significantly cheaper than via other sources I’ve found. Check them out HERE.

Don’t forget, just contact me and I’ll be happy to help you find a hotel which meets your preferences. Just send me an e-mail and I’ll be in contact.

If you cannot find the hotel you are looking for at Agoda. I offer these links for both flight and accommodations.

    I have to concur. I love Agoda. On my last trip, I booked my self into a budget hotel with beds hard as a rock. After two nights, I could not take it anymore and tried to rebook myself into another hotel. Because Agoda booked me into this one, there system could not book me into a different hotel at the same time. I got onto their live web chat and a very nice person helped me out. He got me a refund from my current hotel, booked me into the new hotel and faxed the paperwork there so everything was ready when I arrived. That was fantastic service and I’ll certainly use Agoda for all my bookings in the future.

    A shout out to the Novotel Rim Pae Resort in Rayong Thailand. I just came back from 10 days in Rayong, Thailand and I heartily recommend this hotel. For the price, this has to be the best value in Rayong. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The staff is professional and well-trained. They have four pools and a jacuzzi for you to choose from. If you are looking for relaxation and comfort, this is the place to go.

    So true! Budget hotels in many parts of Asia have beds made to the taste of the locals. They tend to be quite hard.

    Agoda is excellent, as long as people understand that they need to read the terms of refunds since it varies from hotel to hotel. They do try to get you a refund and if they can you’ll get it, if they can’t and the hotel holds them to contract then the money is toast.

    It’s all the difference because the make the effort and that’s why we use them as our “go to” booking agency for our hotel needs.

    I’m glad you had a good experience, and welcome back!
