Why did my Booking.com reservations drop?
The Booking.com help pages give 4 common reasons. The first to rule out: While a listing is paused, Booking.com takes no bookings for the paused dates, so new reservations can stop for that stretch.
Is it broken, or just quiet?
A number can fall because fewer people came, or because something stopped counting them. Below are the causes the Booking.com help pages give, and how to check each one yourself.
What causes it?
While a listing is paused, Booking.com takes no bookings for the paused dates, so new reservations can stop for that stretch.
In the Booking.com help:
You won’t be able to receive any bookings on the dates your property is snoozed – this is called a snooze period.
Pausing your listing temporarily, read 2026-11-12.A pause that was not set to reopen on its own stays in place, as Booking.com's partner help explains, so bookings can stay quiet after the planned break.
In the Booking.com help:
If you didn’t opt to open after the snooze, we won’t automatically reopen your property.
Pausing your listing temporarily, read 2026-11-12.Changing settings for dates inside a pause does not make those dates bookable until the pause is lifted.
In the Booking.com help:
Any setting changes you make to dates within your snooze period won’t make those dates bookable unless you un-snooze
Pausing your listing temporarily, read 2026-11-12.Closing rooms or units on Booking.com is how a property stops new reservations for them, so rooms that are still closed can mean fewer bookings.
In the Booking.com help:
Close your rooms or units on our platform to avoid receiving new reservations
Handling emergency closures, read 2026-11-12.
How do I check it myself?
Check in the extranet whether your listing has a pause in place, and whether that pause has an end date or was left open-ended.
In the Booking.com help:
When setting up a snooze period, you can either set an end date or leave it open-ended.
Pausing your listing temporarily, read 2026-11-12.Look over the nights that have not sold in the extranet and see whether your rooms or units carry restrictions on them.
In the Booking.com help:
Unsold nights – cases in which your rooms or units have restrictions but they aren’t sold yet

How does Booking.com work with Feder?
- Connect Booking.com to Feder and it joins your Wins apps.
- When you connect Booking.com, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See whether you can trust the numbers in Booking.com, one of your Wins apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Booking.com.
