Hartford Courant Sends Frequent Flyers to HotelShark.com

Last Sunday's edition of the Hartford Courant newspaper called HotelShark.com a trove of "guest critiques of hotel accommodations" that is ""widely used." The article, entitled "Rant or Rave, Hotel Guests Get Last Word," ran in the travel section of the October 16, 2005 edition.

The piece noted that "the biggest attraction of the reviews is their raw candor. The writers often take a refreshingly undiplomatic approach." It also cheered HotelShark.com for its "up-to-date information."

The endorsement is the second from a major publication this month. The new edition of Consumer Reports encourages readers to visit "www.hotelshark.com" to "get travelers' opinions" on hotels.

HotelShark.com collects, screens, and publishes unbiased hotel reviews written by real travelers. The site publishes submitted reviews only after they have been thoroughly researched and authenticated. HotelShark.com discards well over half of all incoming contributions as insufficient or invalid. The site may be viewed free of charge at the www.hotelshark.com Internet address. HotelShark.com remains 100% owned by its creator.

HotelShark.com is not affiliated with any of the aforementioned publications.
