Company Description
Historically, hotels have been unwilling to offer rooms just for the day, sticking instead to rigid check-in and -out times. We created HotelsByDay to make it easy for customers to find and book single day stays. We designed the platform to make it easy for hoteliers to add this new revenue stream and protocol to their current booking system. Intuitively, it makes sense. Financially, it does too – we've brought in $5M+ in gross booking revenues.
