Leading online travel agent, ebookers.com,  announces the launch of the ebookers ipad Hotels app, an iPad application that enables customers to search and book hotels while on the move. Designed specifically for the iPad, the new app offers travellers a wide selection of hotels from around the globe, powerful comparison tools and secure booking in just three simple taps.

The innovative ebookers iPad Hotels app provides travellers an easy-to-use fast interface to find, compare and book hotels around the world, whether they are on the go or relaxing on their sofa.

Travellers can find nearby hotels using the iPad’s GPS capabilities – particularly convenient for those in need of a last minute place to rest their heads. Alternatively, users can search by city, address, postcode or landmark, so whether they’re taking in the sights of Paris or strolling through Central Park in New York, they can pinpoint their nearest hotel with ease.

With so many hotels to choose from, the ebookers Hotels iPad app also offers users;
*  Thousands of genuine hotel reviews as well as filter and sort capabilities by price, star rating, review score, distance and region
*  Handy comparison tools enabling them to pick a hotel that best suits their needs
*  The ability to compare hotels and prices on an interactive map
*  Broad range of photographs, guest reviews, special offers, amenities and detailed hotel and room descriptions

In addition to the groundbreaking search and book capabilities, the new ebookers iPad Hotels app delivers the same value that customers have come to expect from ebookers websites, including Low Price Guarantee, and zero ebookers fees on hotel cancellations and changes.

Tamer Tamar, President of ebookers, comments: “The launch of our Hotels iPad app is another exciting step as we look to strengthen our mobile offering, and continue to help travellers to “book easier and travel happier” with us. Our focus is to deliver 4.5-star apps that work. Earlier this year we launched our first iPad app, ebookersExplorer, after becoming the first online travel agent in Europe to launch a multi-product booking mobile site. Both of these apps have been successful, with ebookers Explorer app being nominated as Number 1 Staff Favourite in Apple’s App Store in 65 countries around the world!

Designed from the ground up to take advantage of the iPad’s format and interface, the ebookers Hotels app for iPad is fast, fun to use and streamlined, allowing customers to book a hotel in just three simple taps. With an extensive choice of hotels from around the world, travellers will always be able to find somewhere to stay with ebookers, wherever they are in the world.”
