In Only a Couple Months, the HotelTonight App Has Doubled in Awesomeness

When first we touched upon the new-ish HotelTonight iPhone app when it launched in December, we called the idea genius, and nothing has changed. In fact, HotelTonight has gotten way better, even if it's still only available on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.

The quick rundown of what exactly HotelTonight does, is that it presents you with three discounted hotel options from noon each day to book for that night. You must download the app and join as a member to be able to book, but once you're in, you can score hotels rated from "Basic" to "Elegant" to "Hip" for what amounts to be serious savings.

HotelTonight, in the course of only a couple months, has doubled in offerings and more than doubled their sign-up incentive. Now, in addition to searching out hotels in New York, Hollywood and San Francisco, HotelTonight offers properties in Chicago, Washington DC, and Boston. Their Chicago deals are especially tempting lately—the Hotel Dana for $99? Nice, especially since booking through the Dana direct will set you back $136 tonight.

Now about that incentive...it used to be that you got an automatic $10 credit when you signed up, but now that's shot up to $25. To join and get that $25, you can register here. The $25 sign-up bonus is then immediately available, meaning that $99 Hotel Dana room becomes $74. Now we're talking!

For all of you with BlackBerry and Android devices, you may be missing out on the deals now, but rest assured that the HotelTonight team is working on it. Perhaps by then, they'll bring even more cities on board!
