About Fermata

Fermata is price intelligence for luxury hotel rooms. It shows the forward price curve for the exact room you mean to book, and watches it every night until the rate reaches your target.

About the name

In music, a fermata is the held note: the small symbol above the staff that tells the musicians to sustain, suspended, until the conductor releases them. The raised baton. The hall holding its breath. The pause that makes the resolution land.

We took the name because it is what this product asks of you. Hold. We watch the specific room you’ve named, every night, for as long as the trip is months away. When your target rate arrives, we release you to act.

Some booking links on Fermata are affiliate links. Today that means links to Hotels.com, which go through our partner Stay22. If you book through one, Fermata may earn a commission from the booking site. It does not change the price you pay, and it never changes which hotels, rooms or dates we show you. Every price on Fermata carries the date we saw it, and a booking link opens the live price for the stay you picked.
