Thanks to the Internet, Every Guest is a Travel Critic

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 23, 2007 -- How does a charming 48-room hotel such as the Casablanca off Times Square get recognized as the top hotel in New York City? With a few clicks on the keyboard and a stroke of the mouse, that's how. In today's Internet-based world, real travelers -- not just professional travel editors -- get to speak their mind on what truly makes a superior travel experience.

As of June 21, real, everyday travelers -- not travel trade professionals -- have voted Casablanca Hotel with its Moroccan motif "#1 in New York" on TripAdvisor.com and "#1 in Times Square" on Citysearch.com.

Currently all 4 HKHotels, rank in the top 7 NYC hotels on TripAdvisor.com and in the top Five Boutique Hotels in New York for "Best of CitySearch" on Citysearch.com. These properties include the Library (BOC Winner Best Hotel Staff 2007), The Hotel Giraffe (BOC Best Boutique Hotel 2007) and the Hotel Elysee (BOC Best Romantic Hotel 2006 and 2003).

So just how does a small collection of boutique hotels by an independent owner comprise four of the five top spots on Citysearch's "Best Boutique Hotels in New York City" beating out all of the better-known brands?

According to Adele Gutman, VP Sales & Marketing of HKHotels, the importance of each guest is woven daily into staff training along with a philosophical commitment to give guests enough of a "wow" factor that they are inspired to take the time to go online to sites like Citysearch and Tripadvisor.com.

And in today's world where MySpace and blogs are hotter than ever, it seems like the consumer now has the power in their hands to impact the reputation -- and sales -- of hotels and other travel services.
