The actual report can be found at [0] (direct docx download). All the companies listed in this title were providing "The provision of services and utilities supporting the maintenance and existence of settlements, including transport;" and the two other companies from the US mentioned in the report were General Mills which is extracting unspecified natural resources from the land in question and Motorola Solutions which is providing basically security services of some sort (cameras, ID equipment, etc).
Honestly I kind of despair for this ever reaching an amicable solution.
Is the problem that you can book a hotel (or bnb) within the occupied territories?
Or is it you can book a hotel at something which is an "illegal" (as set by the UN but not by Israel I assume) settlement?
Does the UN want the booking services to check the ownership of the hotel to see if it is Jewish or Palestinian? Or just not have any hotel bookings there at all?
What does The provision of services and utilities supporting the maintenance and existence of settlements, including transport mean in that context. Airbnb allowing settlers to rent out rooms, or Airbnb allowing settlers to book trips via Airbnb?
> The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC; French: Conseil des droits de l'homme des Nations unies,[2] CDH) is a United Nations body (...)
I know some people dislike it, but lets stay with the facts here. It is "the UN" as much as the security council is "the UN". Both are relevant parts of it and if we choose and pick which ones we like things get very messy, very fast (even more than it is already).

I looked around the links on that page but I'm not getting a good feel for what happened.

Certainly, just Israel. And China. And Russia. And even asylum seekers sailing to Australia. But definitely a single issue antisemitic org.
