World's best app for hotel bookings MoreLess
HotelTonight was founded in 2010 by Sam Shank, Jared Simon, and Chris Bailey. The company operates a mobile-first platform that provides last-minute hotel deals to travelers. The business model is centered on partnering with hotels to sell their unsold inventory at discounted rates, providing a win-win situation for both the hotels and the consumers. The platform is known for its curated selection of hotels, user-friendly interface, and a booking process that can be completed in a few taps.
In 2019, HotelTonight was acquired by Airbnb, a strategic move that allowed Airbnb to expand its offerings beyond home-sharing and into the boutique hotel market. This acquisition has enabled HotelTonight to leverage Airbnb's vast resources and global reach while maintaining its brand identity and focus on last-minute bookings.
