The Agoda App: Smarter Hotel Booking on Your Mobile

It's summer! The perfect time to take vacations and getaways! Make it easy on yourself when looking for good and affordable places to stay at any destination you're planning to go to! 

Press Release:

Online hotel bookings have become a staple for most travellers today, from bargain hunters to business travelers looking to make quick, easy and secure bookings. In June 2013, Hotelmarketing.com reported that one in four online travel bookings made in the Asia Pacific come from a mobile device. 

Enter the Agoda app, an incredibly handy tool for booking hotels on iOS and Android devices. Agoda.com is Asia’s leading hotel booking site that offers lowest rates and a fuss-free booking experience. The site’s intuitive layout translates onto the mobile app, which allows users to securely book their accommodation with the help of some very useful features, such as multiple language support (36 in total), conversion to various currencies, as well as Google Maps integration. 

Aside from Agoda.com’s full booking functionality being accessible via the App, a little-known perk of using the Agoda App is its “Insider Deals”. “Insider Deals” are special/flash discounts of up to 40% or more, applicable only to bookings made from the app. These deals depend on season and availability, so lucky users browsing at the right time have a good chance of stumbling upon some really fantastic deals as prices are constantly updated. 

The Agoda app also comes in particularly handy in the face of unexpected changes like a sudden flight cancellation, or a last minute trip extension. The app allows users to conveniently book a hotel in just a few taps regardless of their location, as long as they have access to data. The app is a single stop for all necessary information before making a booking, such as guest reviews, photos, highlights, policies and attractions, all listed within the hotel page. 

Currently, the app is rated 4.5 stars on Google Play with over 17,000 ratings. It is available for free on both the App Store and Google Play. 

• Making a booking on the Agoda app is simple. Users can find hotels via a search bar or via “Find hotels near me”, which auto-detects the user’s location. 

• Upon entering the desired dates, search results can be sorted by popularity, star rating, review score, hotel name or price. Or simply pick a hotel from the location map. 

  

• All necessary information will be displayed. Upon deciding, select payment method, fill the payment form and a confirmation voucher will be emailed to the user.
