Last-minute hotel-booking software through smartphone HotelQuickly officially launched this week in HCM City.

With over 3,000 3-5 star hotels in 12 Asia Pacific nations and territories, it can offer customers who use iOS, Android and BlackBerry 10 prices up to 28 per cent less than other online booking agencies. Bookings can be done at the last minute, up to 4am instead of the typical midnight deadline.

HotelQuickly received an investment of US$45 million from GREE Inc., and is offered in English, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, and Indonesian Bahasa.

In Viet Nam, HotelQuickly has 15 destinations and 330 hotels. — VNS
