Unbelievably friendly and warm staff who gladly gave expert travel advice and recommendations that only a Roman would normally be privy

to. - Loic Diels

I LOVE this website and will gladly recommend it to anyone headed this way. Nothing disappointed us! - Mary-Iris Taylor I have been using Cross-Pollinate for about 10 years now. The service is consistently great and I can always find just the kind of apartment we like, at the right price. - Hirani Himona A really great idea - with a network of hand picked little rooms/guesthouses. If only we could have this in more city destinations! - Zoe Buck I love Cross-Pollinate and every time we go to a new city I look to see whether they have some accommodations over there. - Arantza Aldea The two places I have stayed at from Cross-Pollinate have been among the best across Europe. Highly recommended. - Nicholas Burn Thanks a lot to Cross-Pollinate for the opportunity to experience a city as an insider! We really enjoyed our stay in Rome and Venice and look forward to more. - Tatiana Marchenko Cross-Pollinate was very helpful when the owner of the B&B wanted to charge us for the baby under 2 y o. It would have been difficult without them since the owners did not speak any english. - Yulia

Pichugina

This was our only stay with a C-P apartment and we were very pleased with the entire process. Will look to use them again on our next Europe trip! - Anthony Giglio Great web site and quick response from the team a CP made the whole experience easy and hassle free. I have already recommended CP to quite of few of my airline industry colleagues and I'm sure they will make use of their excellent service. - Shane Pickles Cross-Pollinate was extremely helpful! They found us a place to stay in our price range when many other places of business couldn't help us. - Sarah Seminutin Cross-Pollinate was very easy to use, and it is so much better to stay in places like these than big corporate hotels; you get a much better feel for the place. - Kaspar Deane Very straight forward. Well done. Definitely would use it again. Love these type of alternatives to hotels! - John White Cross-Pollinate was fantastic and easy to use. We used Cross-Pollinate to book a room in Florence (the second leg of our trip), which was everything I thought it would be. We have recommended Cross-Pollinate to our friends. - Barbara Carlin Cross-Pollinate are great - the descriptions are accurate and they are very responsive to questions. - Dominique Bayne Cross Pollinate was just the best. I had tried a couple of places before coming upon them. As soon as I sent the first email I stopped looking for any more websites. I just wish they expanded to every city in Europe. Their knowledge, helpfulness, etc. was second to none. -

We're Linda and Steve, an American couple who moved to Rome, Italy in 1999 to open The Beehive , a small, eco-friendly, artsy budget hotel with a vegetarian, organic cafe. In our first year we were turning away so many people that we started Cross-Pollinate, a way for us to suggest other places to stay that can be reserved through us. Now we and our staff travel around and find places that we can recommend. That's my daughter Paloma taking pics of

We are travel experts, who know and love the cities we operate in. We know the properties we list and their owners and only let those that are quality-controlled on our site.
