News from Travel Technology Update : After 10 months of operating solely as a search engine and “room concierge,” Room 77 is getting into the business of taking hotel bookings. The company has been building a database that doesn’t just describe a hotel; it amasses data on every room in the property, so a user knows whether a room is near the elevator (and noisy) or whether the “ocean view” is really a view of a skyscraper hotel with a tiny sliver of sea off to the side. When it launched in February, Room 77 acted as a search engine and referred users to hotel websites for booking. The original version also armed the consumer with “information they needed to know about the room at the front desk,” Kevin Fliess, general manager and vice president of products, said.
NB: This is a guest article by Tom Botts, managing partner at Hudson Crossing . Room77 , often miss-thought of as a content play for its cool room images, has added a new feature cementing its place as the most innovative hotel search player out there. Make no mistake, Room77 is a meta but it also allows users to book rates directly at the site in an Amazon-style hybrid kind of way – buy direct or via the marketplace. But aside from actually facilitating bookings, what makes Room77 unique is that it show retail rates, merchant rates, AAA (American Automobile Association) and senior rates side-by-side in the primary search – no one else does this! Priceline pioneered the co-mingling of merchant and “pay when you stay” rates (and still maintains this competitive advantage) when it began showing Booking.com -sourced rates within search results – but Room77 is taking it to a whole new level.
