Priceline Offers Zagat Ratings

Zagat LogoPriceline.com recently entered an agreement to offer Zagat ratings for services offered on the website, which are accessible for free. The Zagat Survey information will be available for hotels, restaurants and attractions in the United States and some international locations. The Zagat information, combined with traveler reviews provided by Priceline customers (you know how I feel about those), provides information for more than 600 cities and thousands of hotels, restaurants and attractions. The Zagat reviews are also available in Priceline’s Destination Guides.

According to the press release, the agreement includes:

  • Zagat Survey’s independent hotel reviews that include numerical ratings for a hotel’s rooms, service, dining and facilities, along with a commentary on the property. Zagat ratings already appear for many hotels, and that number is expected to grow in the future. The Zagat hotel reviews are offered in addition to the information provided by priceline.com’s proprietary hotel star rating system, hotel photographs, maps and descriptions, and the hotel traveler reviews provided by priceline.com customers who have stayed at the properties. Zagat reviews are incorporated throughout priceline.com’s hotel shopping service.

  • The Priceline Destination Guides, Powered By Zagat Survey. This handy online travel guide features a useful combination of commentary and reviews supplied by Zagat and priceline.com’s own customers. They’ll tell you what not to miss, and what to pass up. The guide dishes on an area’s top eateries – all the way from unpretentious corner bistros and pizzerias to ultra-trendy restaurants. Want some place to work off your meal? The Priceline Guide reviews various types of attractions, including museums, nightclubs, sports venues, sightseeing spots, historical landmarks and more. To access the new Priceline Destination Guides, visit https://travela.priceline.com/travelguides.

  • Coming Soon – Printable Zagat Travel Capsules. Once available, these city-specific guides will be electronically delivered free of charge to priceline.com customers who have booked trips to top travel destinations. The printable Travel Capsules will feature Zagat ratings and reviews for restaurants, hotels, nightlife, attractions and shopping.
