Hotel-buildings
This season, it seems as though each online travel source as kicked its convenience up a notch. We saw Priceline and Hilton create a hotel-related applications, and now TripAdvisor is making it easier to contact hotels directly.

As of today, the company will allow each hotel’s listing to include its phone number, address, and email information. The review website will make it all available to its 25 million monthly visitors as of Jan. 4, 2010.

In addition to customer convenience, TripAdvisor will also make a profit out of the new addition. By adding a yearly fee to hotel subscribers and possibly resulting in higher booking numbers, the company will charge approximately an annual $600 for small properties and up to $15,000 for hotels with more than 1000 rooms.
