LookingforBooking has been part of the Bencom Group since 2007, a group also known for brands such as Gaslicht.com. Since our inception, we have helped people \u2014 initially consumers and now businesses \u2014 find the best hotel deals by providing clear insights, smart comparisons, and simple processes.<\/p>

What started as an initiative to help consumers make better choices has grown into a platform that supports organizations in efficient, cost-effective, and hassle-free business travel and accommodation.<\/p>

Our mission has never changed: to fully unburden companies \u2014 from competitive hotel deals and transparent insights to straightforward administration and personal service for every business traveler.<\/p>

Discover how we can help your organization save on business accommodation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

That foundation has never disappeared. Price comparison is embedded in the DNA of LookingforBooking and Bencom and remains the basis of how we work. Years of collecting, structuring, and comparing hotel data have given us a unique expertise. We understand the market, pricing dynamics, and the developments that determine what makes a good deal.<\/p>

Today, we use that knowledge to help businesses book smarter, faster, and more cost-effectively, always with a complete and transparent view of the market.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In 2010, we were approached by a company that used our consumer website to review its business hotel bookings. They consistently booked at lower rates than through their framework agreements. That moment marked the beginning of LookingforBooking Corporate Travel.<\/p>

In 2023, we took an important step forward: the corporate platform was fully decoupled technically from the consumer website. This resulted in a modern, independent platform, fully designed around the needs of businesses. It gave us the freedom to innovate faster, improve performance, and further refine our corporate travel concept.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With the launch of our new corporate website, our focus shifts fully to business travel and accommodation. We combine the technological strength of Bencom and LookingforBooking \u2014 more than 25 years of experience in IT, data, and price comparison \u2014 with the indispensable value of personal service and direct contact.<\/p>

The traveler is always at the center. With this combination, we are building a corporate travel solution that gives companies control and convenience, while providing (business) travelers with the attention they deserve.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
