## About

Travel platform for searching and booking hotels and vacation rentals worldwide

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. The team contacted the company in February 2026 to request a review of the Syria access restrictions under the post-sanctions legal framework, but the outreach emails bounced because the addresses could not be found. No response or resolution has followed.

## Official timeline

- 2026-02-09 — Contacted Company. Outreach email sent to Hotels.com at customercare@hotels.com and legal@hotels.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for Hotels.com under the current post-sanctions legal framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-09 — Note. Emails to legal@hotels.com and customercare@hotels.com both bounced — addresses not found

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
