LEADING ONLINE TRAVEL RESOURCE FOR UNBIASED REVIEWS UNVEILS EDITORIAL CONTENT AND UNDOCTORED PHOTOS OF LAS VEGAS HOTELS
Oyster Hotel Reviews (www.oyster.com) launched the Las Vegas Hotels portion of its website today, bringing clarity and authority to the difficult task of choosing the right hotel in Sin City. Oyster has now reviewed a total of more than 600 hotels and posted more than 200,000 original photos of hotels in Las Vegas, New York City, Miami, and the Caribbean. In addition to the hotel reviews themselves, the new Las Vegas section will include roundups of the Best Family Friendly Hotels, the Best Bachelor Party Hotel, the Sexiest Hotel Party Scene and the Best Gay-Friendly Hotels among others.
Millions of Americans visit Las Vegas each year for trade shows, bachelor parties, gambling get-aways, or pure relaxation in the Nevada sun -- and virtually all of the activity takes place in the city's hotels, making it especially crucial for travelers to choose the hotel that best fits their needs. With the launch of the Las Vegas section of Oyster Hotel Reviews, and the site's exhaustive Las Vegas hotel coverage, consumers have the free, independent resource to help them determine the hotel that's best suited to their vacation needs.
Users will be able to search hotels by category, price, special amenities, or features. Oyster's meticulously compiled round-ups range from practical lists like most family-friendly, and best value hotels to more irreverent features like Vegas hotels made famous by movies and best hotels for partying.
The Las Vegas content has been added to the hundreds of reviews and tens of thousands of photos of New York City hotels, Miami hotels, Aruba hotels, Jamaica hotels, and the Dominican Republic hotels. Reviews of hotels in many more locations, including Hawaii, will be added in the months ahead.
In stealth mode from its founding in March 2008 until its launch in June 2009, Oyster Hotel Reviews has spent the past 17 months dispatching its staff of experienced journalists (whose credentials include work at the New York Times, Men's Journal, Money magazine, The Village Voice, and Conde Nast Traveler, among other publications) to stay in hotels, anonymously, while systematically evaluating the properties and taking hundreds of photos.
Hundreds of Las Vegas hotels market themselves on the web. Too often their own websites are filled with exaggeration and even outright misrepresentation. The leading travel booking sites, meanwhile, simply recycle photos and property descriptions they get from the hotels themselves. Oyster is dedicated to guiding consumers through this confusing terrain.
"When a traveler chooses a hotel to stay at in Las Vegas, they are essentially choosing the place where they will be spending the majority of their vacation. Sin City, above all other cities, uses its hotels for all entertainment, gambling, food and business purposes, which is why it's more critical for travelers to know exactly what they are getting into when they book a hotel. Oyster Hotel Reviews ignores the marketing distortions of the hotel industry and provides a reliable source for travelers looking for honest and unbiased reviews of hotels," said Elie Seidman, founder and CEO of Oyster Hotel Reviews. "The vast majority of hotel descriptions and photos circulating on the Internet originates in the hotel's own marketing departments and gets reproduced over and over as legitimate truth -- but too often it's highly misleading. By pulling back the sheets and revealing what you're really going to get, Oyster Hotel Reviews will fundamentally change the way people make hotel decisions. This is a great way for customers to eliminate their risk before spending their hard-earned dollars."
Oyster investigators experience first-hand every hotel they review. They stay in the hotels anonymously. They sleep in the beds, swim in the pools, eat the food, interview the guests, and shoot hundreds of photos. Every review looks at service, design, dining, cleanliness, nearby nightlife, and even the thread count of the sheets on the beds. In addition, the site considers the specific needs of various types of travelers, including families with children, honeymooners, business travelers, pet owners, and those on limited budgets. To assure that consumers get apples-to-apples comparisons, Oyster Hotel Reviews reporters evaluate hotels on 70 different quantitative and qualitative dimensions.
