What are people’s recommended portals for booking European hotels? Since I have Venture X I’ve been using the Capital One app but option to options. Need to book hotels in Amsterdam , Bruges, Bayeux, Paris. Open to recommendations on decent value 4 star or exceptional 3 star properties.

Booking.com is decent for finding overseas hotels

Bookings.com is great, and if you want you can book through them or direct.

Always book direct. The amount of flexibility you get for changes over going through a booking site, is always worth it. Of course use the VX portal if you have your annual credit, but try to find something that maximizes it - you can always use the points eraser later on the vx card.
