Hotel Search Engines

I previously wrote about search engines and advised that it was necessary to consider the source of the information provided. While researching a destination prior to arrival helps to build your anticipation. The amount of information available on different websites is extensive and can be over whelming. Simple hotel inquiries often generate pages of results. The nature of the internet means that it might not be edited for accuracy and a passengers expectation my not match the service purchased. Filtering out unnecessary information aids in travel planning and dealing with trusted suppliers reduces the risk of unmet expectations.




The reservation systems I subscribe to allow me to filter the results by location, price or property type. One booking engine allows me to look for hotels based on a location's postal code, price or distance from an attraction. From there I can browse sites that map out the hotel locations or link into traveller reviews.
