Survey: Travelers want Wi-Fi, will change hotels for better amenities

AH&LA SmartBrief | Feb 14, 2012

A far-reaching travel survey by booking website TripAdvisor finds that the five most important hotel amenities are Wi-Fi access, a free breakfast, guest loyalty points, restaurants and shuttle service to airports and local attractions. "Surveys of more than 1,000 U.S. travelers and more than 600 U.S. hotel representatives show that Wi-Fi Internet access and breakfast included with booking are king, while a turn-down service offers very little value," this feature notes. 4Hoteliers (02/13)
