What we do

At HolidayIQ, we firmly believe that popular opinion today can improve the experience of travellers during their next holiday. We provide a platform for travellers to share their opinions, information & photos with the larger travel community. This platform provides the means to convert the "experience" of a destination or of staying at a Hotel, into an objective, unbiased rating and/or review using our own methodology, developed over months of research.

Our aim is to help the traveller use these reviews to select the ideal Destination & Hotel of their choice as part of their travel plans. The traveller has a choice of not only finding Destinations & Hotels matching his or her specific parameter, but also knowing how other travellers have reviewed that Destination or Hotel.

On returning from their holiday, we encourage the traveller to share their experience with us, thus enriching the quality of our reviews. And building India's first independent, unbiased and comprehensive travel guide.

As the word spreads, we hope that soon the properties will be encouraged to enhance the quality of service offered to their customers, benefiting the community at large.

Hotels and Ratings

HolidayIQ has information on 107875 Hotels across the length and breadth of India. The information we have includes address, telephone numbers with updated STD codes, indicative room tariffs, and website URLs where available.

These have been conveniently classified into the following �types� of Hotel � Beach, Mountain/Hill, River/Backwater, Forest, Spa/Health, Tent/Camp, Heritage, Culture, City Hotel, Home Stay and General
Registered members can easily plan their vacations and weekend getaways by searching for Hotels by state, type and tariff range, besides being able to evaluate a Hotel by looking at the rating given to it by other travellers.

All registered members are encouraged to rate their vacations and weekend getaways on a scale of 1 to 7 (1 being really bad and 7 being superlative). This way, the site becomes a handy reference for people planning quick trips to new places and helps travellers discover Hotels that suit their requirements.
