Jean,

When I’ve had this problem I have looked at googlemaps to see what other hotels are close by the RS hotel. I will then check reviews on booking.com. What is the hotel that is fully booked?

You're on a RS tour and this is before or after the tour I'm assuming? Can you call RS and ask for a hotel recommendation nearby? I used booking.com a lot when I lived in Europe. Are there any RS recommended hotels nearby?

Wonderful tour! I LOVE Matera!

In answer to your question, we were unable to book the first hotel in Rome for the night before the tour started because there was another RS tour leaving the day of our arrival. I went ahead and booked another hotel close by, but kept checking availability at the RS hotel. They ended up having a cancellation at the RS hotel, so we were able to get in. So happy that we didn't have to change hotels!
