    When I visit other websites, I do see a lot of "hotel" links. Heck, it may be a good advertising source to allow but only a few, I wouldn't want their links all over my website.

    You can choose to allow other websites to handle these tasks, and allow your potential customers to view other (competitor) hotels, or you can give them the details they need, as they need them.
    Facebook is increasingly being used for travel research, and having your own Facebook page gives you a valuable tool with which to engage customers, allowing them to ask questions and give feedback. Responding to comments in a helpful way demonstrates that you are conscientious and care about your customers.
