TravelPost.com - Hotel Reviews & Ratings

Planning your next trip? Looking for some unbiased travel advice? Visit TravelPost for relevant hotel reviews, hotel ratings and advice from real travelers like you. You can either search for a particular hotel (ex. "Chicago Marriott"), or you can browse hotels by city after choosing a state in the Hotel Directory. Its filtering feature allows you to segment reviews according to age, gender, purpose of stay, and travel budget. Filtering hotels by reviewer makes finding a hotel easier as hotel preferences are very subjective and highly personal. The "best" hotel for one traveler could be the "worst" hotel for someone else. For instance, if you're going to New York for a business trip and you're 40 years old you're probably not interested in reading reviews from 20-something leisure travelers, or 60-year-olds on vacation. In this way you are able to find the best hotel from travelers with similar tastes, needs and preferences. As TravelPost is an unbiased reviews site, they do not take bookings in order to stay impartial. Instead, they link you to top online reservation companies and to the hotels official website, where you can make reservations. All reviews are integrated with a travel blogging community in which you are able to write about your experiences, post photos from your trips, and keep track of where you've been on a world map. By writing reviews you not only help other travelers have a great trip by recommending a great place to stay or telling them where to avoid, but it is also an excellent way to tell a hotel that it's doing a great job, or to let them know where improvements need to be made. You can also take advantage of the site’s comparison tools to find the best rates for your desired dates of travel.
