Why were users unable to complete the task of finding a hotel on their tablet or
mobile?
Look for a 4-star hotel – Mobile vs. Tablet
• Browsing difficulties – could not find the information • Lack of filters, e.g. filter by area • Search function – not desired/expected results • Price calculation – final price not visible • Not mobile optimised
![Page 19: [Webinar] Mobile & Tablet Usability of Holiday Websites - based on a Benchmark Study](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554ba507b4c905b8618b4e39/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

What did you think about the pictures of the hotel?*
What do users want to see before booking a hotel?
*Question asked in study
Appealing pictures influence a user´s decision to book a hotel or not. They are important when choosing one hotel over another:
1. Pictures are either not appealing or do not contain sufficient information.
2. Photos often don´t reflect the atmosphere of the hotel.
3. They are too general and don´t reflect the real size of a room.
4. Missing pictures of all room types as well as of bathrooms and exterior views.

What did you think about the information and description of the hotel and its services*
What do users want to know before booking a hotel?
*Question asked in study
Users value information such as services near the hotel, transport from the airport, activities to do in the city, videos, and maps.
1. Users need more detailed information related to the hotel services.
2. People want to know how much the hotel charges for additional services such as parking and
Internet access.
3. Booking sites should show the total price for the booking for the days selected in addition to the price per night.
4. Providers should indicate the total price from the start.
5. Websites should provide information regarding interesting sights in the area and public transport.

Why were users unable to complete the task of looking for a cruise on their tablet or
mobile?
Search for a cruise – Mobile vs. Tablet
• Navigation problems – hidden menus • Lack of information – e.g. about route • Search function – not desired results
• Not mobile optimised • Information is not always visible/accessible – hidden menus
![Page 28: [Webinar] Mobile & Tablet Usability of Holiday Websites - based on a Benchmark Study](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554ba507b4c905b8618b4e39/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Main issue encountered when searching for cruises on a website:
1. Access to cruises is on a hidden menu and not on main menu
e.g. next to hotels and flights
2. Cruise icon hard to identify on menu tab
How accessible is the information users are looking for?

Would users book a trip on their mobile device?*
The moment of Truth: Booking Online on a Mobile Device
*Questions asked depending on task and device: Would you book a hotel/cruise on your mobile/tablet?
• More than half of the 360 participants say they would book a hotel or cruise straight away, if the website offers the trip they are looking for. • Only some prefer to complete the booking on their PC.
• Compared to tablet users, more mobile shoppers prefer to complete the booking on their desktop instead of booking on their mobile.

30
Why do mobile users decide not to book a trip?*
Online Booking Barriers on Mobile Devices
*Questions asked depending on task and device: Why wouldn´t you book a hotel/cruise on your mobile/tablet?
• Inconvenient to browse, write, and search for information.
• Security issues: users perceive mobile devices to be less secure than a computer.
3 main reasons which apply to both devices in all 3 countries:
• Not able to save or print the booking directly.
![Page 31: [Webinar] Mobile & Tablet Usability of Holiday Websites - based on a Benchmark Study](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554ba507b4c905b8618b4e39/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
On which mobile device would users book a trip?*
Online Booking Barriers depending on Mobile Device
*Questions asked depending on task and device: Would you book a hotel/cruise on your mobile/tablet?
• Users would rather book a cruise on their mobile device than a hotel.
• This mobile booking behaviour may be related to the fact that a cruise is perceived as a closed package whereas a hotel reservation requires a more active search.
