BANGKOK - In the past year agoda's accommodation listings have doubled, and now the fastest-growing online travel booking platform offers over 2 million properties worldwide. With so many new options available, agoda has curated a list based on some of the most stand-out 2017 property openings around the world with options for every travel adventure.
agoda's Global Director for Brand and Communications, Andrew Edwards, explains: "There have been some incredible hotel openings in last 12 months. From luxury resorts to quirky motels, the latest hotel openings have something for everyone in 2018."
"One thing that stands out is that the caliber of new more affordable properties has been particularly high. Travelers are increasingly demanding more for less, and as cash-strapped millennials make up more of the travel market, the industry is tapping into the demand for affordable accommodation that doesn't compromise on atmosphere and quality."
