October 25, 2008 (FPRC) -- Over the past years travel portals have been encouraging travellers to write hotel evaluations on their sites. These reviews help potential customers in addition to the universally recognised star system.
trivago now features over 3 million hotel reviews for 120,000 hotels worldwide. Malte Siewert, Managing Director of trivago stated: "We have used our metasearch technology, which compares the hotel room prices of 37 global hotel booking portals for this new service. We are now able to provide clear hotel recommendations by calculating average ratings to assist trivago users. The fact of the matter is that the validity of an overall evaluation is dependant on the total number of reviews. The metasearch technology allows us to offer a more comprehensive travel service."
Reviews from the five largest hotel websites are currently available on trivago. This will substantially increase in the near future. With the new hotel review metasearch, trivago is able to strengthen their position as the preferred choice for hotel information on the Internet. The company aims to intelligently filter hotel data, to facilitate the customer decision making process.
