1. Apartment Barcelona Launches New Mobile Website
Guests of the leading apartment rental agency can now book their accommodation on the go
Barcelona, December 18, 2013 – Apartment Barcelona, one of the
most popular apartment rental agencies for visitors to the Catalan
capital, has today announced the launch of a new mobile version of
its website: http://m.apartmentbarcelona.com.
The site is accessible from any web-enabled phone, allowing
customers to search and reserve their accommodation in Barcelona
anytime, anywhere.
The mobile website provides guests with all of the information
necessary to reserve an apartment in or around Barcelona quickly
and easily. Users will have access to a range of features that are also
available on the desktop site such as the search bar, apartment
categories, search filters and guest reviews, but on the new mobile site they will be able to
check availability or contact the company at the touch of a button.
Enhanced usability for mobile phones
Every aspect of the mobile site is optimized to enhance the user’s experience when browsing
content on the small screen of a mobile phone. Images have been resized, buttons made larger
and it is now easier to view each apartment’s characteristics when navigating the site by
mobile phone.
“We noticed a significant increase in traffic and reservations coming from smartphones and
tablets over the past year,” says David Aguilar, Owner and Managing Director of Apartment
Barcelona. “With this in mind, we wanted to give our current and potential guests a more
visual, easier to use, on-the-go experience. Our goal was for our customers to be able to easily
access all of the information they need to reserve their ideal apartment from wherever they
are, and with our mobile site they now can.”
The company also has plans to implement more new elements to the mobile website in the
future, to further improve usability from smartphones and provide an even better service for
users looking to reserve accommodation on the move. A geo-localisation feature will give
customers the opportunity to find an apartment close to where they are, an aspect of the
mobile website which would be particularly useful for those heading to the city on business
trips.
“We are always striving to provide the best experience possible for our guests,” explains
Sandra Roig, Marketing Manager at Apartment Barcelona, “and the new mobile site will help
guests quickly find exactly what they want, regardless of their location.”
Apartment Barcelona customers can visit the mobile website now at
