Will I be charged a international fee for a hotel reservation?

Q. I want to make a hotel reservation online for a hotel in Canada. Will my credit card company consider it an international transaction?

A. You will not be charged a fee for simply making a reservation. If you actually pay the bill (in Canadian Dollars) with your credit card upon checkout, yes, you will be charged a currency conversion fee.

What to do with a non-refundable hotel reservation if plans have changed?
Q. Are there any websites where I will be able to transfer the non-refundable hotel reservation to someone else? My friend bailed on me, and now I am stuck with a hotel reservation which we both were supposed to share. Thank you for your answer.

A. What part of the phrase "non-refundable" do you not understand ?

Can I change my hotel reservation and travel plan after I get Schengen Visa?
Q. I got my Schengen visa from Consulate of Netherlands. I find a better hotel deal and decide to change my hotel reservation for my stay in Netherlands and meanwhile visit more countries in Schengen region than I previously planned. Will that be possible and do I need to inform Consulate of Netherlands about my change.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

A. Do not change either your itinerary or your hotel booking without checking with the Dutch consulate first.

As you can see here in the answer of another person (who is a complete expert at this kind of question. You can see here that there are warnings on the Consulate General website that checks will be made "prior and after the visa has been granted" concerning the hotel booking http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100409073611AAkDLR3 & http://www.ambafrance-uk.org/Visa-website-of-the-French.html#outil_sommaire_8 and as the same registration system applies for all Schengen countries then the same principles apply as well

It is a requirement that you can read on the Dutch embassy site in Pakistan (for example as you did not mention your country) http://www.netherlandsembassy.org.pk/Products_and_Services/Consular_services/Visa/Applying_for_a_Schengen_visa#internelink11 that you must report to the Aliens Police within 72 hours of arrival in NL in the municipality where you are staying and hotels/campsites do this on your behalf. So if the hotel does not not register your stay (which of course if won't if you don't stay there) then the system will pick this up

Contact the Dutch consulate for advice and certainty.

How is the paris hotel in vegas?

Q. Hey guys for vacation im going to vegas in california. I am staying at somewhere called the paris hotel. I need to know who it is. So if you guys don't mind please list the goods and bads about the hotel from what you have experienced or heard. Thanks! A. You know that Vegas is in Nevada, right? Not California? Anyway, the Paris hotel in Vegas is nice. It's not fancy, but it's one of the relatively newer places on the strip and is a good hotel. It gets overlooked a lot, and is rarely recommended, but there's really no good reason why. The location is good, the rates are good, and the rooms are nice. They rooms aren't particularly special, and the pool area isn't anything special either. The casino is nice, but not large. The buffet there is one of my favorites for dinner, and only $20 a person, which isn't too bad. How much does it cost go to the top of the Eiffel Tower at the Paris Hotel & Casino? Q. I'm planning another trip to Vegas...
