The service is created to suit event organisers’ needs in terms of an accommodation management solution, while helping to avoid unnecessary calls during the event organisation process. HotelsForEvent combines accommodation offers from the best online booking systems such as Booking.com, HRS, Expedia, Hotels.com, Hotel.info , Agoda, Otel.com, DHR and Travelocity. It also generates a comprehensive list of accommodation offers, valid for specific event dates and locations. “A price comparison, sorting feature, flexible filters and a ‘visual search’ option allows the visitor to obtain the most relevant search results. At the moment, the solution is available in 10 different languages, thus ensuring product availability for local as well as international visitors,” stated Gennadiy Netyaha, the CEO of the developer company.

HotelsForEvent allows the user to create an online hotel booking solution for an event website in just five minutes and to set it up easily on the event pages of a website. The service can be implemented in the event website as an interactive widget by using HTML code or as a direct link to the hotels list. Anyone can set up this service for his event free of charge and without any obligatory registration.
