Helpful Hotel Web Sites

If you’re tired of booking a hotel online and being disappointed when you arrive, check out these new interactive Web sites that will help you find the right fit.

The Web site VibeAgent.com combines hotel booking with social networking.

Users can rant and rave about their hotel experiences, view the world’s top-rated hotels, and compare notes with other travelers.

It also alerts you to the “vibe” of the hotel, such as whether it’s luxurious, family oriented or gay friendly.

Or, try TripKick.com, which focuses solely on hotel rooms—you can choose what amenities you need, such as a quiet room, a corner room, or a room with a view, and you can read other people’s experiences in that room.
