When the next generation of world travelers is not simply just looking for "accommodations" while booking hotels for the trips, hotels have to quickly react to the increasing demand of "added value" in order to stay in the competition.

Want Me Get Me, a free members-only hotel booking site that gives travelers exclusive access to perks and amenities usually reserved for celebrities, rock stars, and platinum rewards status priority guests at the world's best hotels, is a perfect example of what today's tech-savvy travelers want. 

When booking a hotel through Want Me Get Me, members get included on the hotel GM's VIP List, a room upgrade when available, and complimentary Wi-Fi. The GM's VIP List is used to ensure that the hotel's most high profile guests receive the upgraded treatment during their stay. Specifics of hotel VIP programs are highly secretive and can be quite lavish. In addition to room type, members decide which hotel to book based on a variety of complimentary amenities the hotel is offering. The amenities offered are entirely left to the discretion of each hotel but can include anything from the splurge -- champagne upon arrival and cocktails for two -- to the more practical -- free valet parking and late check-out. Want Me Get Me members always get the best available room rate.

Want Me Get Me has secured agreements with more than 200 boutique and luxury hotels including properties from Ace Hotel, Baglioni Hotels, Denihan Hospitality Group, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, Firmdale Hotels, Gansevoort Hotel Group, Hampshire Hotels & Resorts, Kempinski Hotels, L'Ermitage, Luxe Worldwide Hotels, Montage Hotels & Resorts, Morgans Hotel Group, The NoMad Hotel, Oberoi Hotels & Resorts, Orient-Express Hotels, The Peninsula Hotels, Raffles Hotels and Resorts, Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, The Standard, Thompson Hotels, and Trump Hotel Collection. Although it is majorly practiced in U.S. cities, it has included some world-wide destinations such as London and Toronto.

The strong demand has made the online travel agency more and more personalized, so what about the hotels? how can they evolve over times to stay strong?
