How to set hotel alerts with Rooms.Aero
(00:34) – Nick will use the Grand Hotel Victoria on Lake Como as an example, demonstrating how to see when standard rooms are available (or in this case, not available)
(01:40) – If a standard room isn’t available, you can go to the top of the page and click “create alert”
(01:52) – You can set your alert for a specific date, a date range, or any date
(02:21) – You can set the alert for standard awards, suite awards, or even set a maximum number of points you can spend. (150,000 is Hilton’s limit for standard rooms, so Nick entered this as his maximum.)
(03:41) – With a no account at all (and no paid account), you can still create alerts, but only for specific dates (not date ranges or “any date”.)
(04:04) – Once it sends you an alert for something you were waiting for, it will clear that alert

Excellent video and great website if the hotel you want is listed in their database. If your hotel is not listed, there is an option to provide the hotel ID and request that the hotel be added (they want this parsed from the hotel’s website). Unfortunately, for some hotels like the iberostar waves berkeley shore in Miami, there is no ID in the website.
Rooms.aero also doesn’t have a contact option.
