Stayful Launches TweetStay, the Virtual Twitter Travel Team
First-of-Its Kind Service Allows Users to Tweet a Hotel Request, and Stayful Negotiates a Great Price on the Perfect Room in Real Time
NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for the upcoming holiday travel season, Stayful.com, an exclusive online hotel marketplace, today announced the launch of a groundbreaking new mobile travel service – TweetStay. To use TweetStay, mobile users just tweet a hotel request within 30 days of their stay to @Stayful #tweetstay, and the mobile booking service will negotiate a great price – in real time – with an independent, boutique hotel in one of the many destination cities Stayful serves – at a better price than users can find online.
"Hotels want to make sure they book all their rooms, and travelers want great savings," said Stayful co-founder and CEO Cheryl Rosner, who launched Stayful's online hotel marketplace last year. "Since we negotiate prices behind the scenes in real time, we can offer TweetStay customers a better price than they can find online, and the process couldn't be simpler for users – they just tweet what they need, and we send back exclusive prices on stays at great independent, boutique hotels that they can book right from their mobile phone!"
Twitter users can set their virtual travel team in motion by tweeting their destination city, what kind of hotel they're seeking (budget, mid-priced or premium), their arrival date and how many nights they'd like to book to @Stayful #tweetstay. To get the best possible price for customers, Stayful limits the service to stays that are beginning within the next 30 days, which helps hotels fill rooms that might otherwise go empty.
Stayful helps travelers discover great independent, boutique hotels that can make an ordinary trip – or a dream vacation – something truly special. And with TweetStay, Stayful handles all of the negotiations instantly with advanced algorithms, offering travelers choices that meet their budget requirements without having to haggle for a deal themselves.
Stayful serves top destination cities nationwide, including Boston, New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New Orleans, Houston, Orlando, Miami and many more. Instead of booking a boring, cookie-cutter room, Stayful's marketplace negotiates and offers great prices at unique hotel properties, and now with the TweetStay service, it all starts with one simple tweet.
