    TripKick.com - Your Hotel Sidekick

    Tripkick is a new hotel information database. It goes far beyond the typical TripAdvisor kind of listings and analyzes hotels by each individual room.

    You can find out which room numbers have the best bathrooms, the best views, are on the corner, will have the least amount of noise, have been recently renovated, and more. It also lists which rooms to avoid based on problems like elevator noise. Each hotel’s amenities are also listed, such as if they have WiFi or if they’re pet friendly. You can search hotels based on their personality, such as modern/stylish, hip and trendy, or clean and simple, and if you’ve happened to stay in one of the ones listed, you can provide your own review and post pictures of your room. Transportation basics are also listed so that you don’t have to worry about how you’ll be getting to and from your destination. Most of the 250+ hotels listed and reviewed are of a pretty high quality, so if you can afford to stay in a nicer place while traveling to one of the ten cities in the U.S. that they’ve researched so far, this is a great tool for you.

    Tripkick.com In their own words

    "At Tripkick, we aim to take the guesswork out of your hotel experience. Not all hotel rooms are created equal, so we sought to devise an online concept which would deliver more choices to travelers.

    Based on your preferences, we tell you what to ask for. Whether you prefer something quiet, oversized, view oriented or unique, we give you a series of specific room numbers to request.

    Haven’t made up your mind about where you want to stay? We’ll help you with that too, and also give you some handy info about each hotel.

    So, have you found the perfect room? We want you to share! Travelers have the option to share their own experiences, and the ability to upload pictures.

    We’re starting with 10 Major US Cities, and will announce new destinations monthly. We think you’re going to love our concept."

    Why Tripkick.com might be a killer

    High end hotels will want to advertise and maybe offer deals through this site. It’s easy to browse through and the amount of information provided makes it impossible for you to not know what to expect before you get to your hotel room if you’re using this site. Generally it’s a pain to try and find out the little details of what a hotel has to offer or how you could maybe finagle a deal to get a cheaper rate, but this site takes out all of that pain and effort and gives it to you straight forward.

    Some questions about Tripkick.com

    Will people use this site versus a bigger site that has more hotel options, including ones with more affordable prices? Will people want to deal with actually calling a hotel to make a reservation so that they can book a specific room, or will they just stick to the basic online booking method that allows them to spend less time on travel details?
