Why book with Swank?

When you book through Swank, you don't just save time—you consistently get a better deal than booking yourself. You also help sustain independent hotels, our editorial independence, and sustainable tourism. Here's why our travelers keep coming back:

  • Save Time: We’ll analyze the pros and cons of your short list, book your hotels, or plan the whole trip from scratch.
  • Know before you go: The travel-industrial complex hypes hotels they’ve never stayed in. We don’t. We personally test every property before it makes our list—then make a video about it so you can see if it’s right for you.
  • Exclusive Perks: The lowest rates combined with upgrades, free breakfast, and tons more… Check out our real world examples below.
