New Stayful app for iPhone is your personal travel team
App Automatically Negotiates the Best Price on the Perfect Room in Real Time, Providing Savings Over Listed Online Rates
Now travelers can take advantage of the latest deals in Stayful with Apple Pay
NEW YORK, Dec. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Stayful.com, an exclusive online hotel bidding and booking service, announced today the launch of its new app for iPhone that enables users to find the perfect hotel room in destination cities at rates better than online hotel booking sites – in just a few taps. The Stayful app, available now on the App Store, functions as a travel agent in the user's pocket, enabling users to save while discovering independent, boutique hotels. The Stayful app is integrated with Apple Pay for seamless and secure mobile booking and payment using Touch ID.
"With the Stayful app, users just select their destination city, the dates they want to stay and a price range, and Stayful takes care of the rest, negotiating rates behind the scenes to get the best prices at unique hotels," said Stayful co-founder and CEO Cheryl Rosner, who launched Stayful's online bidding and booking service last year. "The Stayful app brings hotels and travelers together, and it only takes a few taps to get a great room at a price well below online listings. And with Apple Pay, they can now book quickly and securely using Touch ID."
With the Stayful app, users select their price range – budget, mid-priced or premium – and proprietary app algorithms instantly negotiate the best rates to present users with a selection of available rooms at boutique hotels in their destination city, providing pricing data, including the amount saved over the current online price. The app also provides hotel theme descriptions like hip, chic, kid-friendly, charming, party and classic to help users choose exactly the right hotel.
To secure the best possible prices for customers, the Stayful app only books stays that are set to begin within the next 30 days, helping hotels fill rooms that might otherwise go empty – and delivering an exceptional value to Stayful app users. The Stayful app is designed for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and is fully integrated with Apple Pay to make paying for the room just as easy as finding it.
Stayful serves top destination cities nationwide, including Savannah, Charleston, Boston, New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New Orleans, Houston, Orlando, Miami and many more. The Stayful app lets travelers discover unique, independent hotels that make travel for business or pleasure something special, all without having to deal with multiple room rate search platforms or haggling at the front desk to find a bargain.
