HouseTrip: the greatest alternative to hotels

HouseTrip.com is Europe’s largest holiday apartment booking website. The concept is simple: when taking a trip, anyone can book a whole apartment or villa for the price of a hotel room. HouseTrip is easier and safer. Easier because guests book an apartment like they’d book a hotel, online and with a credit card. Safer because HouseTrip is scam-free, letting guests pay securely at the time of booking and only transferring payment to the host when the guests have started their stay. Holiday owners also benefit from free listings on HouseTrip.

HouseTrip.com was launched in January 2010 and has offices in Switzerland (Lausanne), Portugal (Lisbon) and the UK (London). HouseTrip already has listings in more than 350 destinations worldwide, with new accommodation being added every day, and is financed by Index Ventures and various business angels.
