(PRWEB) Which is the Indian vacation destination with the most options for stay? HolidayIQ.com, undoubtedly.

While one may even wonder if there are 10,000 accommodation options available in India, HolidayIQ has found them all. In a significant achievement, HolidayIQ.com has in a short time identified a wide variety of vacations accommodation options in every nook and corner of India. What is more, HolidayIQ.com provides a range of information including the phone number and address of the hotel, its photos (from the hotel and from actual travellers), detailed reviews of the hotel from travellers and alternate options to book these hotels – online with leading Online Travel Agencies or offline with prominent travel agents & tour operators.

The comprehensiveness of HolidayIQ’s database is evident with the spread of hotels across destinations and types. Hotels are listed for nearly 500 Indian tourist destinations and the hotel type ranges from the traditional beach and hill resorts to the interesting heritage hotels or wildlife resorts to the emerging ones like home-stays, tents and camps. True to its name, HolidayIQ’s database covers practically every leisure property in India.

HolidayIQ’s popularity has been growing steadily, evidenced by the growth in its membership base and traffic. The rich and unbiased user supplied content in the form of destination and hotel reviews and photos has been helping Indian travellers plan their holidays. Recent additions to the site like travel videos, weekend getaways section, Q&A forum have rendered the site more useful.

They do not want to stop. “The ten thousandth property is just a milestone”, says Hari Nair, founder and CEO of HolidayIQ. “Though we did not target any number, we kept at it and today, we have achieved this in a remarkably short period. Just a year ago we had 5000 hotels on the site. Our focus has always been to provide the user the widest range of information and the best holiday planning experience possible.” Their hotel research team is still working overtime. And with the users as well as hotel managements getting new hotels listed on the site on a daily basis, they may well achieve more milestones like this.

About HolidayIQ.com
HolidayIQ was launched in early 2004 under the name India Resorts Survey. India Resorts Survey was focused on creating India’s first travel community and getting the community to contribute feedback on holiday accommodation across India. The success of this effort prompted us to widen the scope of the community. Sustained feedback from members suggested the real need to have a traveler community-led holiday information site for Indian travellers. And so was born HolidayIQ.

HolidayIQ is owned & operated by Leisure & Lifestyle Information Services Private Limited, based in Bangalore, India. The company was set up in late 2003 to develop a publishing business in leisure travel and other related areas of leisure.
