Hotel Confirmation Number

What Information Does the HCN Provide?​

Once a booking has been successfully confirmed in Travelgate, you will have access to the following locators:

  1. Buyer's Locator: The client reference.
  2. Seller's Locator: The supplier reference.

Additionally, the Seller may provide a third type of locator, issued by the hotel upon booking confirmation. This is known as the Hotel Confirmation Number (HCN) or Hotel Reference Booking (HRB), also referred to as PropertyReservationNumber in the Legacy Pull Buyers API.

Please note that Travelgate can only provide this code if the Seller includes it in their response. If available, the HCN will be included in the Book Response and/or the Booking Query Response, which cover the Reservation and ReservationRead/List methods.
