| | Accessible.travel, the world’s first instant hotel booking engine for People with Disabilities (PwDs) was launched last month by Craig Grimes, Director, Accessible.travel. Talking about the new initiative, Craig Grimes told TravelBiz Monitor, “The booking engine is different in terms of data provided regarding access and facilities for People with Disabilities at the hotels listed on the site. This has never been done before in a commercial way along with facility of instant booking.”
The hotel data list on the site has been compiled by mapping six destinations from Europe - Athens, Barcelona, Oslo, Prague, Paris and Vienna and one destination from North America - San Francisco. Through the destination pages, PwDs and other travellers are able to find information regarding different hotels and facilities that are required by them. “In due course hotel reviews on the site will include access information so that users can make their own decisions as to whether a particular hotel is suitable for their needs. The site will also include many more destinations from all over the world by year-end. | | Read complete story >> (You need to login first to read complete story). New User? Register for FREE! |
