Answers to the most Frequently Asked Questions

Who are we?

On BBPlanet you can find more than 13500 Hotels, B&B, Apartments, Residences and Farmhouses in Italy, which gives you a wide choice.
Bbplanet is neither a travel agency nor a tour operator; the specific information about the affiliated structures are directly furnished by the latter and not by BBPlanet.
Our aim is to allow the internet users to have a database of accommodations consisting of web pages containing images, descriptions and price list. Internet navigators can find and look up these structures that have themselves provided BBPLANET with the information concerning their lodging. All information is directly managed by the structure.
Bbplanet on-line booking system is easy and fast. You are to chose your destination, visit the web page of the structure and ask for availability.
