<\/p>\nHave you encountered the situation when you need to book a hotel stay at the last minute and yet not sure which hotel is available or which one has the best offer? HotelQuickly app (on Android, iOS, BlackBerry 10) is your answer to these problems.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This app is not new (since 2013). However, it has been updated this year with\u00a0significant redesign, local hotspot guides in major cities, as well as full\u00a0PayPal and TrustYou integration. The most important feature, in my opinion, is that\u00a0the app\u00a0showcases the top 10 hand-picked hotel deals in each city with the average discount of 28%\u00a0compared to the best price online (based on the information from the Press Release).<\/p>\n
Personally, I have not used this app before.<\/p>\n
Press Release<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Singapore, December 09, 2014<\/strong> – HotelQuickly, Asia-Pacific\u2019s leading last-minute hotel\u00a0booking app, is growing rapidly to support the travel needs of Singaporean consumers,\u00a0especially staycations, amazing hotel deals and getaways. This year, the app launched new\u00a0features including a significant redesign, local hotspot guides in major cities, as well as full\u00a0PayPal and TrustYou integration. The availability of HotelQuickly in 14 APAC countries\u00a0demonstrates the company\u2019s dedication to listening to its customers and following tourism\u00a0trends.<\/p>\n Designed to help travelers find the best deals on last-minute hotel reservations, the free app\u00a0showcases the top 10 hand-picked hotel deals in each city with the average discount of 28%\u00a0compared to the best price online. \u201cSince the app\u2019s launch in March 2013, we are thrilled to\u00a0see Singapore has become one of HotelQuickly\u2019s biggest markets with the network of over\u00a0100 hotels and 52,000 downloads,” said HotelQuickly CEO Tomas Laboutka.<\/p>\n \u201cSpontaneous hotel booking via mobile should be fun and rewarding, especially when users\u00a0can enjoy our staycations choices, great discounts for perfect getaways,\u201d Laboutka added.<\/p>\n \u201cAs more and more hotels want to become a part of HotelQuickly, we will continue to expand\u00a0and deliver that service to our growing audience.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOne of our biggest challenges is localization. We have done careful research on travelers\u2019\u00a0behavior and watched booking trends in Singapore, in which most users would like to search\u00a0various hotel-booking services then come back to us again and see if we have the best\u00a0deals. Only through this could we improve the app quality and customer service,\u201d Laboutka\u00a0remarked.<\/p>\n For hotel managers, HotelQuickly becomes a highly dynamic way to sell extra rooms and to\u00a0improve the hotel’s occupancy. The inventory is updated in real-time, adding to the\u00a0experience of the user and the need of the hoteliers. Among the 4,000+ hand-picked hotels\u00a0in the region are e.g. Pan Pacific, Banyan Tree Bangkok, ParkRoyal, Le Meridien Cyberport,\u00a0Hullett House.<\/p>\n The company\u2019s growth has been facilitated by a major Series A-1 fundraising round that\u00a0earned 4.5m USD. The round was led by one of Japan\u2019s leading VCs, GREE, Inc., and coinvestor\u00a0Mr. William E. Heinecke, CEO & Chairman of Thai-based Minor International.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re seeing a clear shift from online to mobile, and as traditional booking channels lose\u00a0ground, there is tremendous opportunity for a service like HotelQuickly in the Asia-Pacific\u00a0region,\u201d said Heinecke.<\/p>\n With the highest smartphone penetration in the region, HotelQuickly will only continue to\u00a0support more Singaporeans to find the best value when booking hotels at the last minute.<\/p>\n About Hotel Quickly Ltd.<\/strong><\/p>\n HotelQuickly is a leading last-minute hotel booking app offering travelers heavily discounted deals in more than 120 destinations in Asia-Pacific.
