How to book a Shangri-La hotel with crypto
trip1 lists Shangri-La Group properties across all four of its brands and accepts 120+ cryptocurrencies at checkout. CoinGate, a MiCA-licensed EU payment provider, processes the transaction and settles with the hotel in fiat currency. Your reservation works the same as one made through any other booking channel.
- Search for your Shangri-La hotel on trip1 by typing the brand name, destination, or filtering by hotel chain
- Pick your dates and room
- Select cryptocurrency at checkout and choose your coin (BTC, ETH, USDC, LTC, DOGE, TRX, XRP, and more)
- Scan the QR code or copy the wallet address, then send payment from your wallet
You get a confirmation email once the blockchain transaction settles. Check in at the Shangri-La property as normal.
How payment works behind the scenes
When you pay with crypto on trip1, CoinGate converts your cryptocurrency to fiat and settles with the hotel. The hotel never sees crypto - they receive a standard payment. This means your Shangri-La reservation is identical to one booked with any other payment method. No special check-in process, no issues at the front desk.

None. Shangri-La is its own hotel group, not part of Marriott, Hilton or another chain. It runs more than 100 hotels and resorts in over 22 countries and regions under four brands: Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, Kerry Hotels, JEN and Traders. That is also why bookings fall under its own loyalty programme, Shangri-La Circle.
