New insights from Open Table and KAYAK revealed that hotel restaurants are no longer just convenient pit stops for travelers theyve become destinations in their own right.
Data showed that nearly half of Americans (47%) say that they specifically booked a trip to visit
a restaurant and KAYAK data shows a 51% year-over-year increased in the use of KAYAKs restaurant hotel filter, spotlighting how dining
and travel are becoming more connected. The research also showed that 45% of Americans post more about meals than sites on their trips, 73% say they would return to the same hotel because of a positive on-site dining experience and 38% report they
booked a hotel stay because of its restaurant.
Hotel restaurants have become formidable players over the years as hoteliers have recognized the power of serving their guests memorable and locally inspired dining experiences, said Scott Hudson, VP of Global Sales & Services at OpenTable. "The hotel
restaurants we have on OpenTable are not just attractive to the 60 percent of diners that use us while on the road - but many are equally as popular among locals too."
Travelers arent just asking Where should I go?theyre asking, Whats on the menu when I get there? added Kate Williams, Chief Communications Officer at KAYAK. Great dining experiences are an essential part of todays travel itineraries and hotels
are rising to the occasion.
