Expedia's 2012 Insiders' Select List
Rankings Powered by Over 500,000 Qualified Traveler Reviews

New Orleans, La. - July 2, 2012 - The Roosevelt New Orleans today announced that it has been named on the Expedia Insiders' Select^® list for 2012, an annual ranking of best-reviewed hotels as determined by the world's leading full-service online travel agency. The Insiders' Select^® list largely reflects the feedback from more than 500,000 verified Expedia customer reviews received during 2011, combined with a value rating and the local market expertise of more than 650 Expedia employees worldwide. Insiders' Select is an easy-to-browse list that helps travelers in finding the perfect hotel using trusted insight of their fellow travelers.

The exclusive 2012 list designates only 650 hotels as Insiders' Select from among the more than 150,000 properties available on Expedia-branded sites worldwide.

"Expedia customers reward value," said Joe Megibow, vice president and general manager, Expedia.com. "Value reflects an everyday commitment to excellence on the part of the hotel. For these hotels, customer satisfaction is paramount. And when we publish the list, we reward those hotels by doing more than sending them a plaque. We lift them up and make them visible through every stage of the booking process. This has an impact: millions of travelers visit Expedia's 30 global- travel sites every day because they are looking for value. So everyone wins."
