“Hotel restaurants have become formidable players over the years as hoteliers have recognized the power of serving their guests memorable and locally-inspired dining experiences,” said Scott Hudson, VP of Global Sales & Services at OpenTable. "The hotel restaurants we have on OpenTable are not just attractive to the 60 percent of diners that use us while on the road - but many are equally as popular among locals too.
“Travelers aren’t just asking ‘Where should I go?’—they’re asking ‘What’s on the menu when I get there?’” said Kate Williams, Chief Communications Officer at KAYAK. “Great dining experiences are an essential part of today’s travel itineraries and hotels are rising to the occasion.”
