Hotels.com has started 2008 with the launch of five new European local language sites in Greece, Turkey, Iceland, Hungary and the Czech Republic.

This move comes as part of Hotels.com’s continued roll-out across the EMEA region and has seen each of the five sites go live with IP based country recognition, local-language interfaces and local currency pricing.

These launches solidify Hotels.com’s position as the world’s favourite hotel booking specialists*, with the company now operating 25 sites across Europe including sites in the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Scandinavia and Benelux. The launch of the new sites continues Hotels.com’s local language expansion plans which also saw Poland and Russia go live in 2007.
