SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA -- 07/06/09 -- Travel search site Skyscanner has launched new hotel search functionality at http://www.skyscanner.net/hotels. Powered by HotelsCombined, the hotel search function allows Skyscanner users to search over 200,000 hotels across 195 countries, comparing prices from the biggest suppliers in the business such as Holiday Inn, Hilton, Booking.com, Hotels.com and LateRooms.com.

Frank Skivington, commercial VP for Skyscanner, said, "As well as finding the cheapest flights and car hire, now Skyscanner users can find the cheapest hotels too. It's all part of the strategy for Skyscanner to become a one stop shop for travel, building on our already immensely popular flight search engine."
