How we earn

Skyline Group is a business introducer. The hotels featured on this site pay Skyline a commission when a booking, concluded directly with them, is attributed to Skyline.

Attribution rests on two things. The link that leads from this site to the hotel’s own website. The promo code shown on the hotel’s page, quoted by the visitor when booking on that website. The hotel records the attribution in its own system.

Skyline does not sell travel or hotel services; bookings are made directly with the establishment, which alone sets its prices and conditions.

That framework is the one entered in the Trade and Companies Register. The activity declared by SKYLINE GROUP states that the company collects no funds on behalf of its partners or their clients, and carries on no activity of selling travel or holidays within the meaning of Articles L. 211-1 et seq. of the French Tourism Code.

Nothing. The visitor never pays Skyline anything. No service fee, no subscription; no payment passes through this site.

The commission is borne by the hotel. It belongs to the contract between the hotel and Skyline.

The price of a night is set by the hotel alone, on its own website. The rates shown on this site are indicative, dated the day they were observed, and supplied by the hotels.

Every link that leads to a partner hotel’s website is a commercial link. It is labelled as such, right next to the link: “Sponsored link — Skyline earns a commission from this partner hotel.”

French law requires online advertising to be identifiable as advertising. The label simply says where the money flows.

The model stops there. In particular:

• Skyline sells no stay: no accommodation contract is concluded here.
• Skyline collects no payment on a hotel’s behalf, nor in respect of a stay.
• There is no booking engine and no date search: the page describes, the hotel’s website does the rest.
• No placement is for sale: neither a hotel’s position in the selection nor its editorial features.
• Skyline announces no discount figures: the benefit attached to a promo code is defined by the hotel alone.

How hotels enter the selection, and the order in which they appear, are described on the page “How hotels are listed”.

The page comes down to three sentences, used across the site: Skyline Group is a business introducer. We earn a commission from the establishments featured. Booking and payment take place directly with the hotel.
