Our Guest Oscar

Meet Oscar, one of our past hotel guests. His adorable, cuddly face graced our hotel for a short amount of time this winter. One of the benefits of being a pet friendly hotel is that you get to meet a lot of people's special companions. Oscar's sunny disposition and cuddly nature helped his mom get through a transition that many of us go through - moving to a new city!

Forefront of Technology

Choice Hotels launches the first iPhone app by a hotel chain

by Brian Osborne posted on April 2, 2009 4:10 pm

Choice Hotels has announced the very first global application for the iPhone from a hotel company. The Choice Hotels Locator iPhone application will be available to iPhone and iPod touch owners free of charge from the iTunes Store. The application utilizes GPS capabilities within the iPhone to assist Choice Hotels customers.
Using the application customers can find and book Choice Hotels worldwide. Over 5800 hotel locations are available through the new iPhone application. GPS functionality within the application includes the ability to find hotels based on location, get directions and even look at street view images. Other hotel images are accessible through the application as well.


Choice Hotels must know that one way to get customers to book their rooms is to place information concerning over 5800 hotels in the palm of their hands. That’s really what is great about a free iPhone application. People will download it because it’s free and the organization sponsoring the app may see more customer business as a result of its use.
