Hotels.com, it has included in the portal the section "The 10 best hotels according to users". This ranking has been elaborated from the opinions of consumers who have used the Web to book a hotel and who capture their experience through a score from 1 to 10. Thus, Hotels.com makes a new sample of its interest in approaching the client, valuing their opinion.
