Users can search and book properties that fall within federal per diem limits

MANSFIELD, Texas, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Travel logistics company Groople now includes a search feature that enables users to book properties within federal per diem limits for travel.

Groople site: Search for Austin, Texas showing government rate at top (in orange text) followed by list of properties

The Government Services Administration (GSA) updated its rate limits earlier this month for more than 800 cities. Travelers now booking hotel rooms on Groople can clearly see the federal per diem rate for the city they plan to visit, along with Groople rates. Pricing that appears on the initial search page includes taxes and fees, so there are no surprises when the customer advances to the final booking stage or checks out of the property.

The company made this site enhancement to simplify the hotel search process and enable a faster booking process. While federal government employees will appreciate this convenience, many others will find it useful as well, according to Groople CEO John Butler. "Colleges and universities, small and midsized businesses, non-profits and other organizations often do not have specific travel limits for each city, but instead rely on the federal government per diem rates to guide employee travel. This feature will help all of these travelers quickly find the right property that meets the per diem requirements."

Groople offers additional benefits:

Customers can add loyalty program details to their account and earn points with their hotel brand, a feature not available with most third-party booking sites.
All property listings feature refundable rates.
Single booking options are available for individual travel.
Free booking support is available by phone.

In addition to hotel rooms, Groople provides booking services for group air travel, charter buses, restaurants and local attractions.
