App Helps Hotels Create Four-Star Facebook Pages

You may not be able to actually check in to a hotel with the new Facebook app released by buuteeq Tuesday -- other than with Facebook Places or foursquare -- but you can do just about everything else.

You may not be able to actually check in to a hotel with the new application released by buuteeq Tuesday — other than with Facebook places or foursquare — but you can do just about everything else.

An app called buuteeq for Facebook enables hotels to offer potential guests views of rooms, photos, maps, and the ability to make reservations directly via the hotels’ Facebook pages.

The software appears to compete with a set of hotels tab offered by SocialApps HQ.

The app from buuteeq (which insists on no initial capital letter) allows hotel owners and managers to provide the following information and features directly on their Facebook pages:

  • Room photos, descriptions, and amenities;
  • Maps, nearby points of interest, and detailed directions;
  • Photo galleries featuring rooms, the property, and surrounding views; and
  • Direct access by travelers via Facebook to the hotels’ booking engines.
