HotelTonight Launches Las Vegas Hotel Deals

It’s the moment fans of HotelTonight have been waiting for – Vegas, baby! The popular last-minute mobile hotel-booking app today announced it now offers last minute deals at several Las Vegas hotels. Users can book same-day stays (until 2am) at major hotels including Caesars Palace, Trump International Hotel, The Palms and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, among others.

In conjunction with the Las Vegas launch, HotelTonight is introducing a new social function for hotels called "Happening Tonight." Hotels can send short, timely messages to users within the app, letting them know about events happening that night in the hotel or special discounts for HotelTonight users. Tonight, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas is giving HotelTonight bookers a free upgrade to the luxurious HRH Tower, the Sagamore in Miami is throwing in a $50 local restaurant certificate and Hotel 71 in Chicago is offering a pair of free tickets to tonight’s Sox game.

“No city in the world is more spontaneous than Vegas, and our hotel partners are working in creative ways to remind people of this,” said Sam Shank, HotelTonight Founder and CEO. “We look forward to inspiring many Friday night Vegas road trips with deals this great."

HotelTonight makes it possible to take last-minute trips to Sin City without having to gamble on lodging. The new Las Vegas deals are ideal for people in cities like Los Angeles, San Diego or Phoenix, who can book a room en route in just 10 seconds, leaving more time for discussing blackjack strategies. The app also rescues travelers whose plans change at the last minute and visitors who realize after a long night that a great hotel room could be less expensive than a cab ride to the other end of the Strip.

“We think HotelTonight is a great way to reach new audiences with incredible deals and we are happy to have them in Las Vegas,” said Annette Weishaar, Vice President of Leisure Sales for Caesars in Las Vegas. “We see a large percentage of our guests driving in from nearby cities and looking to book same-day hotel stays, which makes HotelTonight a perfect fit. We’re confident we’ll be welcoming new guests to the Caesars properties thanks to our partnership with HotelTonight.”

HotelTonight has experienced rapid success with more than 350,000 downloads since its launch in January 2011. Additionally, just last week, the company announced a $3.25 Million Series A funding round and new deals in Denver and Atlanta.

HotelTonight is available for free on the App Store for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad at www.itunes.com/appstore and everyone who downloads HotelTonight receives a $25 credit toward their first booking.
