Regular Springwise readers may remember Make Me A Holiday, the intention-based site where travel agents can bid to serve travelers. Now Soverinn is setting out to create something similar, using boutique hotels which will create unique packages for travelers tailored to their needs. The site is currently in closed beta, but when it launches tourists will be encouraged to enter the details of their planned break, including dates, location and type of visit. The information will then be sent to nearby hotels on the site’s database. Those hotels can then choose to reply to travelers with offers and packages completely tailored to their needs, creating unique experiences designed to fit the traveler’s specification and reason for traveling. Soverinn’s idea is that travelers can avoid relying on review sites and get in direct contact with accommodation providers. According to the company, an element of competition between hotels is also fostered as they attempt to win the custom of the site’s users with promises of unique experiences. Soverinn will be focused on boutique hotels located in the US when it goes live. A concept to try out in your part of the world? Spotted by: Katharina Kieck
