Airbnb’s mission is to create a world where anyone can belong anywhere. To advance our mission, we are reimagining(重塑) travel by building an end-to-end travel platform(端到端旅游平台) that combines where you stay, what you do, and how you get there, all in one place. Today, we are building on this work by signing an agreement to acquire HotelTonight(一款旅游服务名叫:HotelTonight). HotelTonight is a hotel-booking service focused on making last-minute trips easy and fun, offering guests seamless, on-demand booking for boutique(为旅客提供按需预定无缝对接的精品) and independent hotels.
A big part of building an end-to-end travel platform is serving every guest, whether they plan their trip a year or a day in advance.
Working with the incredible team at HotelTonight, we will offer guests an unparalleled last-minute travel experience(我们将为客人提供无与伦比的最后一分钟旅行体验) that provides unique, memorable hospitality on every trip, on any schedule, at any time.
Brian Chesky, Airbnb Co-Founder, CEO and Head of Community
Airbnb has built an unrivaled(无与伦比的) global community of hosts and guests—we can connect travelers to more than 6 million places to stay and tens of thousands of incredible experiences around the world. Airbnb “is now the most searched-for accommodations brand” according to one Google executive, and guests are using Airbnb for every kind of trip, including business and last-minute travel. Today, more than 400,000 companies are using Airbnb to help manage their travel, and same-day bookings are now growing 2x year over year. Welcoming more boutique(精品) hotels to our platform will help us deliver on our commitment to make Airbnb for everyone, providing guests the authentic, local experience they have come to expect on every trip.
We started HotelTonight because we knew people wanted a better way to book an amazing hotel room on-demand, and we are excited to join forces (与。。。合作)with Airbnb to bring this service to guests around the world.
Together, HotelTonight and Airbnb can give guests more choices and the world’s best boutique and independent hotels a genuine partner to connect them with those guests.
Sam Shank, Co-founder & CEO of HotelTonight
