Hotels.com: Another iPhone Optimized Site Done Right

Posted on 10 Jan 2008 by PatrickJ

Hotels.com has launched an iPhone optimized version of their site this week, and I think they’ve got it very right.

Things I like about it:

  • Easy to spot button to take you to the full site if that’s your preference
  • Big, easy buttons throughout its pages, and good use of rollerbars to make your selections quickly when filling in details of your search, for example
  • Pages are very fast-loading
  • It’s still got excellent hotel photos and lots of detail on each location

Here’s some quick examples of some more of the pages, as I did a quick search and then checked out one of Austin’s finest:

Start of the listing of hotels in Austin:
