    Probably not. Otel.com have featured for years as chancers - here's something from Tripadvisor 4 years ago

    " We recently booked a room in London England through Expedia. After going through Expedia's online reservation and payment system we received an e-mail from a company called Otel.com with our booking record and voucher. When we arrived in London and went to check in the hotel had no reservation record for our pre-payed room"

    "
    I did this two month ago and prepaid the room. I received a voucher but the hotel new nothing about it. I also had to book another room. For several month now I am writing e mails back and forth with otel.com. But their only response is that they will start investigating or that they blame somebody else."

    "
    People complaining they cancel bookings and do not return money. No answers to any emails and no way to contact them. All the signs are there to AVOID"
