HallStreet.com Demonstrates New Social Travel Planning Site at Travel Innovation Summit
Site Makes Planning Travel around Events a Snap
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- HallStreet.com, a powerful events-driven social travel planning site, today announced from the Travel Innovation Summit that HallStreet.com founder and CEO Alfredo Ouro will provide a full demonstration of the site at the Center Stage on November 11 at 5:45 p.m. PT.
HallStreet was born out of the lack of organization in today's travel marketplace, which despite the plethora of booking and comparison sites, still requires event attendees and travelers to plan their trips using a multitude of tools and sites. At the same time, it's difficult and expensive for travel services and local businesses to take advantage of market opportunities in the multi-billion dollar travel sector.
HallStreet, with its elegant map-based interface and innovative blend of event, hotel, and restaurant booking and social connection features, brings together all the travel planning ingredients travelers need while providing businesses with a powerful marketing platform that can be integrated with 3rd party web and mobile apps, and used as a customized marketing tool for demand prediction and personalized offers.
"With HallStreet, you can instantly see not just what's around you, but what's happening around you," said HallStreet Founder and CEO Alfredo Ouro. "This makes it easier not only for event attendees to plan around their events and for travelers to add nearby events to their travel plans, but it also helps travelers know what events and areas to avoid. It's never been done before, and many find it's surprisingly powerful."
The real innovation in HallStreet is the addition of events to travel planning, which lets travelers visually plan their trips around festivals, trade shows, weddings and other events both public and private in addition to hotels, restaurants, and other local services. HallStreet teamed with a variety of providers, including Hotels.com, Expedia, Booking.com, and Restaurants.com, and features the sale and resale of 200,000 hotels, 500,000 tickets and 50,000 restaurants.
With HallStreet optimized for mobile, users can:
- Start their search and travel planning by city or event and then find, compare and book tickets, hotels and restaurants all in one place, plan their routes, and more;
- Narrow their searches by distance to the venues, personal preferences, budget, rating, amenities, and more;
- Track events and benefit from personalized offers from local businesses based on their dates and reason for being in the area;
- Connect with other attendees or travelers that are either familiar with the area or will be in the area at the same time for recommendations or meet-ups;
- Add any event—big or small, public or private—to the HallStreet's listings
"Global in scope and constantly growing, HallStreet is the next great leap in travel planning," added Ouro. "We're excited for our official unveiling at the Travel Innovation Summit."
