The Revelstoke Accommodation Association has just launched its new StayInRevelstoke.com mobi website. The site designed to take advantage of the latest smart-phone and tablet technology and the growing number of travellers that use these devices while planning their vacation.
“We know that many travellers arriving throughout the year in Revelstoke may not have pre-booked their accommodation, especially our European visitors who make-up a large portion of our summer traffic,” Thom Tischik, marketing manager for the Revelstoke Accommodation Association, said in a statement.
“This new site will make it easy for the traveller to seek out and book their accommodation quickly. This new site is not an app, but rather a dedicated website that features information about the 19 RAA Member hotels and resorts, motels and inns, bed & breakfast, guest house and hostel.”
The site allows users to search out each property’s location, get directions to them, check out their amenities, rates and even take a look at several photos of each property. The site also has selections for ‘Helpful Links’ that list a variety of local websites as well as traveller assistance sites such as weather, road conditions, avalanche conditions and community sites to make coming to Revelstoke as easy and safe as possible. The site also has an ‘Explore Near Me’ option that uses GPS technology to locate accommodations close to the users location. The website is also linked to Google Maps.
Promotion of this website will feature the use of QR tag technology. All print advertising will feature the tag and a simple scan by the phone will take them to the StayInRevelstoke.com mobi website.
