Hotelsbase.org is a comprehensive database which lists hotels along with their room rates across the world. It aims to have the biggest listings and the best quality data accessible online.
Online, June 11, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Gathering, collating and organizing great quantities of data is not often seen as something fun or exciting. It's the new possibilities that come from these initiatives that really get people engaged. For one industry above all, the database is at the core of the whole show - the business of Hotel Rooms, Search and Reservation. Quality databases should be fast, extensive and versatile to become seen as reliable and up to (or surpassing) industry standards. This is just what the founders have aimed to do with HotelsBase.
The most important point about the data at HotelsBase is that it's totally free. Anybody can view and make use of the data collected there, for any reason they want. Who is this database intended for? Plenty of different types of business can reap some benefits from the new & improved availability of this data. To start with, hotel search engines can improve their listings using the data. Additionally, the data can also be utilized by potential visitors and statistics organizations. Anybody with simply a passing interest in a hotel establishment will benefit.
What's new and unique about hotelsbase.org? To begin with, the extent of their database of Hotels and Prices is unmatched. They've picked up more than 500,000 hotels and are still expanding. The completeness of the data is impressive, covering everything ranging from room price to amenities, map co-ordinates and distances to nearby places of interest.
Hotelsbase.org also aspires to be the most usable and versatile of Hotel databases. There is an API access key enabling immediate data feeds for any data area to be accessed on the fly. Additionally, hotel owners can add listings for themselves or add to their existing listings. All they need to do is fill in a couple of form fields and submit.
The introduction of a free, regularly updated and extensive database for Hotels is a great thing as far as smaller hotel owners are concerned. By getting included in the HotelsBase database, they know that any hotel search company will be automatically including them in their accommodation listings taken from www.hotelsbase.org - web based exposure for less well known hotels will most likely rise as a consequence.
