TravelPony.com Review: Exclusive Hotel Savings for Social Travelers
Hotel booking site reviews are rare on our blog amid the flood of new platforms. We always wonder: what sets you apart? When TravelPony.com approached us, their tagline—“Where Social Travelers Save More on Hotels”—sparked our interest.
To access members-only prices, log in with Facebook. Before approving, you'll see: “We never post to your wall without your consent.” “We respect your privacy so we only request your name and email.” “Facebook is used as a convenient way to create and access your account.” Simple and transparent.
Significant Savings
Search results display savings versus major sites like Expedia and Booking.com—verified accurate by us, ranging from 1-70% lower.
Why the low rates? “Spread the word about TravelPony. This is how we can offer such low rates. Our customers are our best marketers!”
This leverages word-of-mouth over pricey ads, passing savings to you—a smart, customer-centric model.
Social Sharing
The standout feature: Sharing is fully optional and customizable. Edit your Facebook post freely or opt for the “Pony Promise” to share offline with friends.
User-Friendly Design
Enter a city and dates; hotels appear on the right, sortable by PonySavings, Price, Top Deals, Standard, or Upscale.
Click a hotel for a map view—even measure distance to landmarks. Manage bookings via account login or live support. Reviews sourced from Yelp.com.
Room for Growth
Launched July 2013, TravelPony focuses on major U.S. cities, Paris, and London with a growing inventory—fewer options than giants, but expanding.
Final Verdict
We're eager to watch this innovative site grow and will include it in our hotel booking checks.
