User Reviews

User reviews show a divided view of Hotwire on iOS. A minority praise the app for potential savings and straightforward booking when it functions, with some noting visible pricing and good deals. However, a large number of reviews highlight serious reliability issues (crashes, loading trips, sign-in problems), booking errors and refund challenges (charges with no reservation, difficulty getting refunds), and inconsistent customer service. Additional complaints focus on misleading deals and variable hotel quality. Overall, reliability and service gaps outweigh the savings positives, suggesting improvements are needed to restore trust.

Pros

Potential for very competitive deals and low prices when used smartly
Upfront price visibility including taxes and fees helps with price comparisons
Straightforward booking flow when the app functions correctly

Cons

Frequent app reliability issues: crashes, hangs, and trip data not loading
Reservation errors and refund problems: bookings missing or overcharged with slow or unclear resolutions
Poor customer service experiences: rude reps and inconsistent support
Perceived misleading deals and inconsistent hotel quality: fake deals, mismatched star ratings, and variable value

Don’t use. The app froze on me, then ended up double booking, and charging, me. Then, even after the hotel’s front desk person went out of her way to clarify that it was just me and that I didn’t need nor use a second room, Hotwire (truly owned by Expedia) had me stuck on a phone loop of blame passing back and forth to different people for 2.5 hrs, only to never (still haven’t refunded me. Worst customer service experience EVER!!!!
