Open data, visible provenance
Where the hotel directory comes from.
Hotelsoncall is built on open place data, then filtered and organized for hotel discovery. We keep the source, limits and correction path visible.
Primary place data
Hotel names, coordinates, categories, addresses, phone numbers, websites and operating-status fields are derived from Overture Maps Foundation Places data and its contributing providers. Hotelsoncall filters the lodging taxonomy, removes records listed as permanently closed and normalizes contact fields for safe display.
Contributing providers and licences
Overture combines place information from multiple providers under permissive licences. Contributions can include Meta, Microsoft, Foursquare, PinMeTo, Krick, RenderSEO, DAC, BrightQuery and AllThePlaces. The mix can change between releases.
- Overture Maps Foundation data is distributed under the Community Data License Agreement – Permissive, Version 2.0, except where a source notice states otherwise.
- Foursquare contributions are provided under Apache License 2.0 and associated notice terms.
- AllThePlaces contributions are made available under CC0.
See Overture’s current official attribution page for the authoritative provider and licence list.
What the data does not establish
A source confidence score describes the underlying place record; it is not proof that a phone number is currently answered, a website is owned by the hotel or rooms are available. Hotelsoncall does not label a contact as verified unless a separate verification process has taken place.
Map presentation
Roads, city labels and geographic context in the interactive finder are presented through OpenFreeMap, using OpenMapTiles and OpenStreetMap contributors. Hotel markers come from the separate Overture directory described above. A map location can be approximate, and straight-line relationships do not describe a legal walking route, current traffic or public transport service.
Corrections and removal
For an inaccurate phone, website, address, property status or duplicate, use the data correction form. Include the property name, location and a reliable supporting source. Hotelsoncall also forwards appropriate upstream corrections to the relevant open-data project where practical.
