Orbitz 2010 ‘Best in Stay’ Awards winners announced
Orbitz Best In Stay hotel winners were selected based on the overall score they received from Orbitz customers. Reviews and scores for each hotel are collected only from Orbitz customers who have booked and stayed at the hotel.
Orbitz announced the winners of its 2010 Best In Stay Awards, recognizing more than 50 top-rated hotels based on reviews by Orbitz guests themselves.
“As social media continues to evolve, more and more travelers are looking for advice from other travelers to help them choose the best hotel,” said Peggy Bianco, Group Vice President of Global Hotel Supplier Services for Orbitz Worldwide. “The Orbitz Best In Stay Awards aim to applaud those hotels that continue to impress their guests with a high level of customer service.”
Orbitz Best In Stay hotel winners were selected based on the overall score they received from Orbitz customers. Reviews and scores for each hotel are collected only from Orbitz customers who have booked and stayed at the hotel. Reviewers are asked to rate a variety of hotel attributes on a scale of 1 to 5, including amenities, maintenance, hotel staff, room comfort, location and value. The “overall score” is an average of all reviewer scores submitted.
Introduced in 2005, Orbitz hotel reviews let travelers take advantage of the first-hand knowledge of hundreds of thousands of authentic hotel customer reviews solicited only from Orbitz travelers who have booked a stay at the hotel. Hotel reviews can be sorted based on the type of traveler, such as business, couples or family, to find the right hotel that fits travelers’ specific needs.
Now, Orbitz customers can also share their hotel reviews with their Facebook network. Travelers simply click “Connect with Facebook” after completing the review form to post the review to their Facebook page.
