Who’s This For

Meeting and Event Planners requesting proposals from hotels on Hopskip.

Overview:

Hopskip helps you find similar hotels in the same market with open dates that match your event needs and are ready to bid. Once you've reviewed the comparable hotels, you'll still need to send your RFP to the hotel.


How You’ll Be Notified About Comparable Hotels

You’ll be alerted when new comparable hotels are available for your event through:

  • Email Notification: You’ll receive an email when new hotels matching your criteria are found.

  • In-App Notification: A red badge appears next to the Comparable Hotels button in your Proposal Tracker and Proposal Dashboard. You’ll also see a list of new matching hotels at the top right of these pages.

How to Access Comparable Hotels

  1. Go to your Proposal Tracker or Proposal Dashboard.

  2. Click the Comparable Hotels button (look for the notification badge).

  3. Click View to see a list of available hotels in your selected market.

Reviewing Comparable Hotels

The hotel name, guest room availability, and event space details will be displayed.
You’ll also see helpful tooltips when you hover over important info:

  • Guest Rooms: Displays whether the hotel has the number of guest rooms available over your requested dates

  • Event Space: Displays whether or not the hotel has the event space you requested available

Adding a Comparable Hotel to Your RFP

  • Click Add to RFP to invite the hotel to submit a proposal.

  • Click Not Interested to remove the hotel from your suggestions.

You’ll see a confirmation, and the hotel will now appear on your Send RFP tab.
