PINK CHOICE AWARDS 2006

PINK CHOICE is thrilled to announce the recipients of the first Pink Choice Awards. The award recognizes the reviews and ratings posted by gay and lesbian travelers since the site’s launch in August 2006.

The Pink Choice Award reflects the high regard in which gay and lesbian travelers hold each property. The award acknowledges the exceptionally high standards of accommodation, amenities and service they provide in the opinion of gay and lesbian travelers.

All properties within each of the four price bands in each global destination are eligible for an award provided they receive an overall score in excess of 95% and a credibility rating of 5. This indicates that they have received the highest possible score and a sufficient number of reviews to make the rating credible.

The Pink Choice Awards are based on the ratings awarded to properties listed on the site from its launch in August 2006 and December 31, 2006.

The PINK CHOICE Awards will be presented each year to recognize those properties that have received the highest ratings and reviews posted by gay and lesbian travelers.

Trevor Pinker said “The value of PINK CHOICE is growing as more and more gay and lesbian travelers discover the site, post reviews of their accommodation experiences world wide, and, in turn, use PINK CHOICE when choosing their next play to stay”.

TORONTO ACCOMMODATION

On a recent visit to Toronto we looked in on three gay owned properties, the Bearfoot Inn, the Bent Inn, and Cawthra Square B & B. Each are distinctly different, marketing to a specific segment of the gay market. Checkout their sites when planning your next visit to this great Canadian city.

PINK CHOICE ENHANCED SEARCH FACILITY

PINK CHOICE recently added an enhanced search feature to their site. This new feature benefits both business owners and gay and lesbian travelers. Business owners can enhance their property page by highlighting the range of features and amenities they offer. Gay and lesbian travelers can now detail specific amenities they require from a hotel, inn or guesthouse, thereby narrowing their search options.
