My trip to Europe/Greece was great. The accommodations were good, the price was right, and I liked the flexibility of viewing and selecting alternative accommodations. I have recommended RoutePerfect to others.

We used RoutePerfect to plan and book two trips touring Spain from the North to the South coasts and then back again between April and July, staying at 9 hotels in total. All were good to excellent with very straightforward check-in, accepting our voucher with no problems. The website is excellent as a totally flexible planning tool and the staff were very efficient and helpful when we made a mistake with dates and had to phone to make a change. We would highly recommend RoutePerfect and would certainly use them again.
